AYU news in KAIFU river 2001

[2001]

Aug. 12/2001
Today is a consecutive holiday premiere.
Because it quite rained last week, I expected.
However, the kaifu river was to do drought being.
A lot of AYU are necessary but don't bite.
I caught about 10 the morning.
In the afternoon, too, the situation doesn't change.
I caught 20.
Then, Mr.Higuchi was catching 12.
I think want to rain.

I went to the same place which went together with Ryou last week.
Because this day, too, must go home at 5:30, it is possible to fish only until 3 o'clock.
Three companions to have come otori shop there from the big slope ask a point.
When seeing the map to have, I am the map of my home page.
I am glad.
My home page is useful.
I suggested going to the wakamatsu bridge to them.
I caught 20 by 3 o'clock.

Let's introduce a nice boy.
His name is Ryou Sunakawa, Yamanashi-Ken junior high school 2 grader.
Why do you think that he is in kaifu river?
He saw my home page and it, too, came alone to kaifu with the bicycle.
He is a really great boy.
Because Ryou came to the asking for lesson of TENKARA, we went in the most upstream part of kaifu river.
However, it isn't possible to fish.
Amego is hidden because a lot of AYU are necessary.
We caught only one.
At night, I did tying classroom at my house in him.
The tying technique of Ryou was wonderful and I was taught.
The comity is right and is the boy that the future is pleasant.

Previous day, there was come-on from my friend Mr.Higuchi and I went to kaifu river.
Because there is little water in the river, the choice of the fishing spot is difficult.
We went near lure(otori) shop.
Then, it fished for about 2 hours but it wasn't possible to have caught it at all.
I could not endure and it moved to the 100 m upper stream.
It idea was good. It hit at the same time as I put lure(otori).
I took 16 as much as 1.5 hours. We changed places but we was No byte from noon.
We wished for rain.

I met and fished with some good friends whom I had not seen for some time.
My companions for this day of fishing included, Baku Yumemakura, the novelist and three friends from Tokyo who only fished in the morning.
They returned to Tokyo by plane later that day.
The fishing conditions that day were the best.
It wasn't too hot and it wasn't too windy.
We caught 2-10 fish I really like the Kaifu River! It is a wide and clean river.
We actually use the water to prepare our lunch. It was really great to get together with my friends and fish.
It'll be great to get together.

I resumed fishing for AYU in the second half of the season.
A trip business had delayed my fishing for two weeks.
I bought a lure at 9 o'clock.
The master at the lure shop suggested the upper stream but I headed for the lower reaches.
This was because the lower river is easier and I had plans for a BBQ that evening.
My waders developed a leak and soon looked like a sausage. I had to give up fishing.
