初めてのわかさぎ釣り。 この日はなかなか釣れない日でしたが、ポイントを替えたりしていました。 我が家は初めてで子連れ(2人)。糸垂らせば釣れると思っている子供にじっと待つことの難しさを思い知りました。常連さんは待ち時間の過ごし方を分かって居るのでお菓子やスープなど持ち込んでました。何も用意していなかった我が家はお腹が空いたやつまらないなど用意の甘さを痛感しつつあきらめかけていましたが最後の最後に何とか釣り上げることができ、子供に色んな経験をさせてあげるのだからできました。 これも同じ船に乗っていたお客さんやスタッフさんのお陰だと思います。 ありがとうございました。

很棒的體驗,不過一到的時候,人員又另外問我們是否有要吃釣到的魚,一個人又多收了500日圓,小孩同價,因為冰釣費用已經很貴了,在我們到了之後又再多收費用這點很扣分,炸魚雖然好吃,但以人頭計價和抵達後額外收費,未事先通知這一點請務必改進。

遠方からワンコを連れて山中湖に行ったので預ける事も出来ずだったのですけれど釣りをしている間もワンコ達と一緒にいられ安心して楽しめました。貸切で手ぶらでいけて釣り方等も丁寧に教えていただきました。釣った分を天ぷらにして貰えるお店も紹介してもらえて美味しくいただきました。今回は釣果は良くなかったのでまた行けたらこの船でリベンジしたいと思います。

On February 10th, the Aoki Lake Fisheries Association conducted an investigation and concluded that the fishing season will not be lifted this year. This year, there has been a lot of snowfall, and water has come out between the snow and ice. The temperature is expected to rise in the next few days, so the ice will melt due to the water, and the ice strength will not be maintained. You can look forward to boat fishing for smelts at Lake Nakatsuna in the green season. The green season Aoki Lake/Lake Nakatsuna smelt boat fishing, tempura, and day camp includes a tempura set rental, so it is a recommended plan for those who want to enjoy smelt fishing and tempura casually! The opening of the winter fishing season for smelt holes at Lake Nakatsuna depends on the weather and smelt resources. It was not lifted in 2025, 2024, or 2023. It was lifted in 2022, but not in 2021. This area is a cold region with a lot of snowfall. When there is a lot of snowfall, the snow acts as a cold protection and true ice does not form. Snow and ice form, but they cannot support the weight of a person. The hours for hole fishing at Lake Nakatsuna are 7:00-16:00 (2026 dates are yet to be determined). There are two sets available: Winter Lake Nakatsuna Smelt Hole Fishing Set + Tempura Set Rental and Winter Lake Nakatsuna Smelt Hole Fishing Set. The Winter Lake Nakatsuna Smelt Hole Fishing Set + Tempura Set Rental includes a tempura set rental, so it is a recommended plan for those who want to casually enjoy smelt fishing and tempura!

ワカサギ釣りははじめての体験でしたが、説明がとても丁寧で仕掛けづくりから釣りまで子供でも楽しめました。 最初は全く釣れませんでしたが、一度連れ出すとコツがわかって計40匹くらいを家族4人で釣りあげました。 釣ったワカサギを天ぷらにして食べて子供には非常に貴重な経験となったかと思います。 今回でコツをつかんだので次回また挑戦したいと思います。

今回初めてドーム船でワカサギ釣りをさせてもらいました。スタッフの人は話しやすくわかりやすく説明して貰えたので良かったです。 2/17は山中湖周辺の気温が3~5℃位で寒かったのですが、ドーム船はビニールハウスみたいで、中は暖房があり、日もでてたので暖かく、上着を脱ぐ程でした。日がでてない場合は寒いかもしれないので防寒は必須です。 2月は産卵の時期で釣れにくいとのことでした。 確かに釣れる時間と連れない時間があるようで、8-13時の釣りでしたが、10人で50匹程度でした。 座る場所が少し違うだけで、ワカサギの群れに仕掛けが入らず釣れない事もあります。この辺は魚相手なので仕方ありません。釣果に差はあるものの全員がボウズになることはありませんでした。湖の底を感じ取ることが出来ればボウズにはならないと思います。 釣れたワカサギは、卵を持っているものもおり、天ぷらにした時に苦味もなくあっさりしててとても美味しく食べる事が出来ました。 竿に当たり外れがあり、硬い竿に当たるとワカサギの繊細なアタリを取る事が難しかったです。 釣るのが難しいこの時期は、竿が揺れるだけでも来た!と言う楽しみがあるので、たまたま私のが硬かったようですが、竿先が柔らかいものを全員に行き渡るようにお願いしたいです。 ニゴイも釣れてみんなでわいわ楽しく釣りが出来ました。ありがとうございました
