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.
