Japan Fly Fishing; The Maruta


 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.
