Lake Kitaura

Lake Kitaura is located right next to Lake Kasumigaura, and among the largest bass-fishing fields here in the Kanto area, Japan.

Since the spawning season seems to come to the end, I went fishing in the area to check whether or not I could catch any after-spawned bass.

I had very much tough time to catch fish coz I got no information on how the fishing area would be; the results were only several bites, and two large-mouth basses(pictures below).

40cm! After-spawned bass!

43cm! caught just before the sunset!

Lure: Soul shad by Jackall

Reel: Daiwa pixy68L with bait finesse spool

Spring season 2013 in Saitama Prefecture!!

Last Sunday, it was such a good weather to go out for bass-fishing that I couldn’t help grabbing tackles even after hard work on the past weekdays.

This time, where I went was a small pond in Saitama Prefecture, called “Shibayama pond”. “Sibayama pond” is located in the northeast region of Saitama Prefecture. It is originally used as agricultural water supply around the area. It’s small but has considerable variation of its land features.

I have been here several times for fishing in this pond and caught nothing．．．, had tough time so far. But, not this time, some miracles??? happened and caught one!!.

30cm, average size in this pond
