As boring as the Japanese soccer team

Like the those wold cup matches that the Japanese national team played, fishing was slow.

After hours of fishing in a cold river, I only scored two fish. Although, one of fish was OK fish, and it pulled heard. So I guess it was more exciting than watching how the Japanese side played at least.

Scoring two points which was as much as what our highly paid, overly confident, yet still very incompetent Japanese soccer players got in this world cup tournament.

In my opinion, they played without passion, courage, and creativity. They were deserved to get knocked out from the tournament after the group stage, I think.


久々に釣りに行きましたが、サッカー日本代表の試合運びの様に全く退屈でした。

何時間も色々と動き回り、やっと2匹。こっちへ行っては駄目。あっちへ行っては駄目。まるで、ちょこまかボールを蹴るだけでの日本の横パスサッカーと同じです。

日本代表の試合、勝ちへの執念も感じられなければ、上手くいかない攻撃のパターンを変えるクリエティビティーも無し。ノロマでパスも繋げられないお山の大将をベンチに下げる勇気も無し。グループステージで敗退は、残念ながら妥当な結果でしょう。

I thought light was interesting.

Reparing my packraft

My packraft got a small hole on its side, and it was holding air anymore. So,  I did a repair job on Thursday before I was taking it out on the weekend.

I followed Alpacka raft's repair tip by putting a dab of Aquaseal. I pumped up the raft, and I was grad it was good to go again. 

My friend and I went out to fish on Saturday, but unfortunately the wind was blowing bit too hard, so I left the raft at home.  

I will bring out the raft next weekend as I am thinking to fish on the Moore River.


岩に当たって小さな穴が空いてしまったパックラフトを修理しました。アルパカラフトに問い合わせところ、ウェーダーの修理と同じ様に、アクアシールを塗るだけで大丈夫との事でした。

アドバイスに従い、接着剤をちょこっと塗って修理完了。来週末に釣りに行く前にラフトを膨らませてみましたが、問題は無さそうです。

My long weekend

We had a long public holiday weekend last week.

I went fishing for bream on Saturday, but I didn't get much result. So, I quit fishing early and went to Fremantle to take some photos instread.

My friend and I then went fishing again on Sunday, but we didn get much again.

I had given up on fishing by then, so I stayed at home on Monday to do some work for our photography class.
