Big Aji

I missed fishing some big aji. I hope this summer season will bring me some good catches. In the meantime lets enjoy this guy taking out some nice sized aji in Japan.

Extreme Fishing: MorningTide Fishing

No need to add anything to this video. Is it dangerous? Yes, but it is a 4 minute roller coaster video! Those guys are really showing what hardcore fishing is.

DUO's Video: There is Only One

This is the coolest "how a lure is made" video I have seen so far. Very classy and well done.

Beautifully done. I wish we could watch more videos like this.

Ripple Fisher's Fishing Diary

If you like big fishes, amazing island, great tackle and delicious food, you should definitely check the fishing diary of the famous rod maker Ripple Fisher. It is in Japanese but with some good google translate you can understand part of it. Besides, it more about the photos that are worth thousands of words. In the end you realize that those guys at Ripple Fisher are having a blast testing new rods around the world and especially the southern islands of Japan (Tokara anyone?)
You can see tuna, amberjack, flatfish, hira suzuki, mackerels, madai, chinu and so on. Everything is in there.
Enjoy!

DUO Spearhead Ryuki in floating model

One of my favorite ultralight lures has just been introduced in floating model. The Ryuki is a trout lure that loves strong currents and I had good results with it. Now DUO has made a floating version which I am sure will be good in saltwater too. The fact that it is floating might help fishing the upper part of the water column and avoid snags during the retrieve. The sinking models likes fast retrieve but maybe the F  model will work well with a slightly slower retrieve.

The floating lure is 2.8gr. compared to the 4.5g of the sinking model.

Also available in 70mm size.
