This time, young members of the Tsuriken FG Oita Prefecture branch and I went fishing at the designated fishing spot in Yonouzu, Nagata. One more person joined us at the last minute, making a total of five. We were taken care of by the safety-first Koumei-maru boat amidst a gentle breeze, large waves, and strong currents. Actually, this was my first time fishing at Nagata, so I was looking forward to seeing what kind of fishing it would be. Today's chum was as follows: (I was worried if it would be enough for a private fishing trip) [Chum]...

Five fishing friends and I went to Yonemizu in search of cold-weather amberjack. We split up and started fishing, with two of us fishing at Hanare (a stand-up fishing rig) and three at Dosenbae. I headed to Dosenbae, where I expect the fishing to be slow this time of year. I cast my rod at Dosenbae two weeks ago, but by 10:00, there had been no sign of a single fish, and the patrol shifted to a different spot. I'm excited to see what the fishing will be like this time. The water temperature had risen sharply to the high 18°C. We started fishing around 7:00 AM. We rotated between fishing spots every two hours. I started at the end of the lagoon, but there were no fish at all. Since the bait was being taken, the baldfish and pufferfish seemed to be active. After catching a few Japanese smelt and filefish, we moved to the tip of the fishing spot. There was a current at the tip of the bay, and I cast my line from around the current, but there was no reaction from the sea bream, but I caught a steady stream of red parrotfish. Aiming for the offshore current, I abandoned the shallow shelf and headed for a deeper one. After just over a half hours, I felt a bite on the line, and a sea bream measuring 35cm or larger appeared. I was so happy with this one. I continued fishing with the same pattern, but nothing worked. Time passed, and two hours passed, so I moved to the middle fishing spot. It was time for a mix-and-match break. The three of us chatted and took a break, and it was past noon. For the remaining two hours, I changed my rig to a semi-guided rig and continued fishing. After a few casts, I caught a small long-fingered fish the size of a foot, but nothing more. As usual, the red parrotfish were active and coming in one after another. I don't know how many fish I caught. I adjusted the amount of bait I threw and aimed for the edge of the current, and after a while I got a bite. The float suddenly disappeared into the sea, and I caught another sea bream measuring 30cm or larger. After that, I called it a day without any bites. As expected, the fishing was tough, but it was a fun day, and it also served as practice for the manufacturer's tournament. We caught a number of large, sizable pole-mounted tuna, and it seemed like everyone had a great time. Thanks to everyone who joined us for a great day.

For my first fishing trip of 2026, I went to Yonouzu. Thanks to the help of Komyomaru, I boarded the 5am boat and plan to enjoy the day in pursuit of squid and greenfish. As it was the New Year, the boat was fully booked! After all the passengers had disembarked, I requested a rocky shore to dock at the end. After docking, I offered sacred sake and secured six squids as souvenirs in about an hour, then started float fishing at dawn.

The weather has been unsettled lately, and even though I've made plans for fishing trips, they haven't always gone as planned. Last week, I participated in the Tsuriken branch preliminaries, and after my first bream fishing trip of the season, I decided to go fishing in Tsurumi with the help of Masayukimaru in Tsurumi. The bait I used this time was "Krill Triangle, GREAT GURE, GURE ZERO, and GURE Z," adjusted to a low moisture content in anticipation of rain, and mixed with a light-particle fish attractant, with the idea of fishing in shallow waters. The bait I used was "Namaiki-kun PRO and candied krill."

My fishing buddies are the best! Today, to celebrate my friend's return, we celebrated the night before and enjoyed a return fishing trip the next day. Despite the northerly winds, we decided to go fishing for black porgy and horse mackerel at Oiri Island in Saiki City for safety reasons. We boarded the 6:5 AM ferry (Niseimaru) and were a group of five, so it was incredibly lively and exciting from the morning. After arriving at the fishing spot, we headed to the spot we had chosen by rock-paper-scissors...

On Saturday, April 26th, I went fishing in the Tokuyama area of Setouchi, Yamaguchi Prefecture.
The fish are becoming less active as the water temperature drops.
On my first fishing trip of the year, I saw some largescale blackfish but the results were poor, so this time I wanted to relax and went fishing with three friends to an area where we could expect to catch some large fish.
Unfortunately, the weather was rainy on March 24th.
On the weekends, the weather goes downhill, and we head to southern Oita Prefecture in search of large Chinook under bad conditions.I put out my rod at a point where I thought I could catch a fish.
