Flicking feathers

  Music by Morlais https://music.apple.com/jp/artist/morlais/1018522954?l=en The Maruta, or pacific redfin, is a sea-run member of the dace family that return to spawn in Japanese rivers in early spring. Unlike salmon, they continue to feed in fresh water and are easy to catch on nymphs, or streamers. When they are fresh in the river from the ocean, they are very powerful for their size. After a few weeks in the rivers they lose some of that strength but still fight well.

An old post I wrote for www.sexloops.com   I've been checking a few new-to-me shore locations around Tokyo bay over the last few weeks. Some of them are right in the city, like down by the Olympic village. Others are thankfully a bit out of the way. It's been fun, even if it has meant fewer fish than I might usually expect. This is the kind of situation where I don't mind blanking though. Each visit to a mark helps to build a picture of the area and what it's like at different tides. Of course fish are welcome, but I'm OK with some slow sessions if it means I can manage some more consistent success in future. This week I've been to a promising place, a nice esturine area with a couple of islands, some nice channels and other manmade structure. The first visit I went down during the day without the rod and just had a walk around, at low tide to see what was what. I like to do this where possible as I'll often be fishing at night and it's a good idea to ha
