A school holiday and bream fishing


I am still on a school holiday. No class to teach. Spending another afternoon on a river.





Two pictures of the same bream. I like how the fish looks on the second picture.




I also caught a larger than average size Yellowtail Grunter.

Quiet sunday


Fishing was very quiet this afternoon. The tide was bit slow, and without wind, the water was hardly moving. It is not a good condition for bream fishing.

We tried a few places without success, but I finally hooked up one fish by casting around a marker (a green marker next to my friend on the picture). I thought a drop off near the marker would be an ideal ambush spot for a bream specially on a lazy day like today.



It is a major blowy spot on the low tide, but the tide was bit higher this afternoon, and I got connected to the fish on the second cast.

I was happy to land this fish not only it fought hard but also did that infront of bait fishing people who appeared to be catching blowy after blowy.

Fly fishing rocks!



今日の釣りはとてもスロー。場所を変え、毛鉤を変え、色々試してみましたが、魚はまったく釣れません。あきらめ気味でパイロンの横にキャストすると、良いサイズの魚が掛かりました。

フグしか釣れていない餌釣りの人の前で、魚は良いファイトを見せてくれました。フライフィッシングでクロダイ。餌釣りには負けません。
