Fishing!! 釣り!

I've now been fishing four times now; it seems to be becoming something of a hobby!

1. Fishing in Kurihara before camping in July
I don't know what I'm doing with this..
2. Fishing near Musashiitsukaichi (武蔵五日市) after camping in July
Still don't know what I'm doing.. so I'll just pose and look cool

3. Fishing in Oome (青梅) in August
We found a nice river that was close to a station so we could travel by train this time.
This time we tried bait fishing, which is much easier for beginners. But I didn't like skwering the poor worm-thing to the hook and freaked out a bit, so I got Toshi to help me out.
I didn't catch anything, but I did get some good nibbles.
 The fishing professional that is Toshi caught just one fish, proving it wasn't such a good 'spot'!




The fishing wasn't going very well, so we gave up and had a bit of fun!!

4. Fishing at Enoshima Island (江ノ島) in September
I got to try sea-fishing for the first time! We tried bait fishing again, and though a typhoon was causing some high waves..
 I finally caught my first fish!!!!!!
 A blowfish-
if The Simpsons ever taught me anything-- blowfish are not to be eaten!!!
 


 Before and after ^^
Grilled fish, sashimi (by my own personal sushi master) and not forgetting, wasabiiiiii!!!
