Finally Fishing
Well, we stayed in Hakone over a night and are 100% prepared to
go fish. Jun Nomoto, the guy supposed to guide us, rented a small
boat. Jun brought his friend, Yukiaki Aida. They are both bass pros
but participate in the different organizations.
Kazuto Yamaki, the owner of this rental boat service, is also
a bass pro, and he suggested us that bass are still on the spawning
beds even though it was kind of late for the season.

"You bring a spinnerbait. That'll
be just fine," he said and left. After Jun checked Kazuto
went far, Jun said,
"He lives out here. He should know things better, but
one spinnerbait isn't enough. I will bring a whole tackle
box." Then, he put his box on the boat.
Jun, Yukiaki, my wife and I stepped on the boat and left
the shore. We reached a spot and started fishing. Then, Jun's
box was a big trouble obstacle so that I tried to move it
a little aside. Yet, it was damn heavy! heavier than a battery!
Jun, you can bring anything you want, but don't ya think it's
too much!?

Jun Nomoto participated a tournament yesterday
and looked he backlashed. he says "Pros also backlash." |

Yukiaki owns a Gambler boat, and he basically fishes on
Lake Kitaura, which is near Japan's largest international
airport.

When fishing Lake Ashinoko, there
are rules. First of all, we need to buy a fishing license
(1000 yen for adult, 500 yen for kid). Also, there is a closed
season. You can fish from March 1st to November 30th. No night
fishing. Likewise, using plastic worms are prohibited. Spinnerbaits
and rubber jigs are OK.
