On April 4th, I went to the Hikiyama River dike in Aira City to try and catch a black porgy. When I came here a week ago, I only caught one 26cm black porgy. I wasn't satisfied with that, so I decided to go on a revenge fishing trip.

After finishing work, I started fishing at 4pm. The south wind was blowing hard enough to create white waves, making it very difficult to fish. When I cast my tackle into the spot, the line was blown around by the wind and quite loosened. This caused the line to be subjected to wind resistance, making it difficult to cast the tackle as I wanted.

So, cast the tackle about 10m offshore from the chum casting point, and as soon as the float hits the water, put the tip of the rod in the water and reel it in to remove the line slack and surface tension, so that the line goes below the surface of the water. This makes it easier for the line to drift without being disturbed by the wind.

I cast a few times, but the Sashiesa-Pro I had left was still there. I decided that there are no bait-stealers, so I continued with the same bait.

Thirty minutes after the start, the line started to run vigorously, and when I quickly hooked it, it gave me a lively pull, entertaining me. I was careful of the tetrapods at my feet, and caught the first one in the dip net. It was 30cm, a little bigger than the last time. I felt relieved, but I was determined to catch the next one, saying, "I'm aiming for a year-old black porgy!"

However, the black porgy around 30cm that were caught with the chum started to bite, and I thought, "Now is the time to be patient!" and had some fun with a frog flounder while rotating the bait. Still, the bait that got the best response was the Sashiesa Pro.

Gradually, the frog flounder calmed down and the bait started to remain.
"Is it because the tide has slackened? Or are there any good-sized fish approaching?"
While I was thinking about various things, the wind started to stop and then pick up, making the conditions a little more favorable for fishing.

Just an hour after we started, the line was slightly taut and not moving. Wondering if something was caught, I slowly pulled the tip of the rod, but there was a "bang" as if it had gotten snagged, and it still didn't move.
Half in disbelief, I tried listening with the rod more slowly, and the fish suddenly took off out to sea.

After a while, the black porgy stopped running and the rod felt the pull of the black porgy shaking its head. When I brought it closer to the shore, it tried to dive into the tetrapods. I tenaciously absorbed the black porgy's power with the No. 00 rod, and after floating it two or three times to make it breathe air, it finally came up to the net on the fourth try.

The strong pull and the plunge into the tetrapods at my feet were thrilling but fun. When I measured it, it was 48.5cm, so it's just a little bit smaller than an ageless one.

The black porgy continued to bite after that, and the stringer that could hold six fish was full, and after that, I used a switching strategy to catch a total of double digits. I'm grateful to the black porgy for having fun.

Now that I got my revenge this time, my next goal will be to catch an ageless black porgy.
