For beginners, there is a lot of fun in fishing with lures at Hazekura. The feeling of the crank hitting the bottom, the weak but clear bite of the goby in your hand, the delicate trace of the lure to make the goby notice and anger it, and many other game elements are included. The key to winning is to slowly lure the goby while hitting the bottom with a lightweight crank. Occasionally, black porgy and sea bass other than goby are also caught, which is also a happy thing, and this is the charm of Hazekura! For bait fishing and carnivorous goby, we will hold a fishing school for barracuda and horse mackerel lures with fat crank lures and worms. Barracuda, characterized by a slender silhouette and sharp teeth, is a popular target that can be easily targeted at fishing ports and embankments. It is a ferocious fish eater that actively attacks and preys on other fish, and it responds well to lures and attacks boldly. It is also a recommended target for beginners who are thinking of starting lure fishing. In addition, the horse mackerel worm has a tail that moves subtly and gives off a smell, so even beginners and children can easily catch horse mackerel. The rods and reels are light, so even children can participate in light jig and crank lure fishing. Bait will also be used at the same time, so children who are tired of lures can switch to bait fishing. There will also be a class on how to fillet fish, how to make dried barracuda and horse mackerel, with a focus on the delicious-to-eat fish, the Japanese goby. Duration: 2.5 hours Items to bring: cooler (ice), hat, drink Items to be prepared here: one set of fishing gear, bait, several coaches We look forward to your participation.
