FISHING IN THE RHYTHM

HOUYHNHNM FISHING CLUB enjoys the rainy season. First time at Lake Mishima and lots of excitement!

The air is still and heavy this time of year, and there's no use in feeling down about it! HOUYHNHNM FISHING CLUB headed for Lake Mishima in Chiba Prefecture with a breath of fresh air, saying, "What's wrong with the rainy season? We hadn't been to the Boso area for a long time, as we had recently been going to managed fishing spots and the sea. And since most of us were here for the first time, our hearts were filled with excitement and excitement. It was cloudy, rainy, and sunny, and only one of us caught a lot of fish!

Fishing around while getting wet in the rain!!!!

It's been a little over an hour since the start of the day. Normally, this is about the time I would finally get up. . While I was concentrating on reeling in the reel, raising my hopes for a good catch, it started to rain. Suddenly the temperature dropped and it became cold, and as expected, my tension dropped. ...... . However, rain doesn't matter to the fish, and in fact, it can be a good condition for fishing. As usual, I got the benefit of the rain!

The first one to catch a fish was the general manager, Ishii! . He caught it beautifully about a little after the rain started to fall.

Ishii:I did it! A black bass had been swimming in front of me for a long time, and I could feel that I was about to catch it. I lured it with an O.S.P. MMZ Deca worm, which has a swell shape, while twisting it around a tree, and it bit. I think it was about 35 cm in size. I was relieved to catch one fish!

The members, who had been shivering in the rain, recovered their energy at the sight of one of Ishii's fish. After a while, the rain clouds passed and it became cloudy again. The members got back on their feet and started casting. Then, everyone seemed to be in good shape.

Saisu:After it rained, I threw a spinnerbait and got a reaction. I couldn't get it to bite completely and didn't catch it. ...... . but I am feeling a good response that I might be able to catch it.

Ichikawa:I got a bite on the frog , but it was caught. Actually, I had never fished with a frog. It is very difficult to catch fish with a frog.

Ikemoto:I was throwing big lures , but switched to spinnerbaits and frogs. I will try different things.

Komatsu:. throw a frog , or use a jointed lure that swims on the surface. If it's a bass the size of a lure, it will chase you, but it's not Kimi .

In the midst of all this, this is the man who caught it.

Ishii again!

Ishii:I saw a small visible bass swimming around in a weedy area. I threw it and caught it on the third cast! My favorite lure was the O.S.P. HP Shad Tail, which I have been using since Mr. Miyake, a bass pro from Daiwa, showed me how to use it two years ago at Lake Biwa. It's great to be able to see the moment when they are chasing and eating! It's a little guy, about 20 centimeters, but I'm happy. All I have to do now is to increase its size.

Bass are living under the trees covering the surface of the water and on the reeds growing in the water, so your casting skills will be put to the test. It is interesting to shoot with pinpoint accuracy, just like playing darts!

Komatsu:. unlike ocean fishing, it is difficult to cast delicately. . I'm happy just to be able to drop it quietly where I want it to go.

Just when you think the rain is over, the sun comes out, and now it's hot and sweaty. Then, the Ichikawa!

Ichikawa:I gave up on big baits and topwaters and was slowly reeling in a spinnerbait and caught it. Well, I guess there is more to come.

Forgetting to take pictures, each angler freely went around the points. To my surprise, Ishii caught three bass at the same spot as before! Ikemoto was at a different spot, so unfortunately, he didn't get a shot with the bass. ......

Ishii:. It was such a good spot that I got one bite out of three throws. The lure I caught was the HP Shad Tail by O.S.P. again. . The size of the fish was not good, but it was fun to see the moment when it bit again.

Komatsu also caught a fish.

Komatsu:I combined a STEEZ Flex Jig from Daiwa with a move bait and dropped it near the shore! It was a miniature bass of about 15 cm , but still enough.

And Ishii, it seems, was still catching fish.

Ishii:I was quite satisfied, but when I went back to where I had first caught it , I caught another one. Next was a " JACKALL Swing Mikey. I bought another lure yesterday because it worked so well at the last controlled fishing spot I went to.

Gradually, we started catching fish and got excited up↑ Once we gathered, we decided to move together for the second half of the game.
