Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

I hope that everyone is having a wonderfull holiday. I’ve been very busy with work, travelling, and shopping (unfortunatly not for fishing gear). However, I found some time to post our final article for 2005. Adam Guy does it again, with another amazing article on fishing in Japan. This time Adam takes us indepth in to the ancient art of tebane.

How do you catch fish in water over ten meters deep using a rod that does not have a reel, or even guides for your line? Simple: fashion the rod from bamboo, hollow out the centre and run the line through the middle and out the very end of the rod. Wrap your spare line around a couple of pegs at the other end, and you are ready to indulge in the traditional Japanese fishing technique known as tebane.

Re: Season Closer

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they get a little darker as they age. The biggest I've caught was about 14 inches long and still had these colours.

Re: Season Closer

Do these colours stay with the fish or as it gets bigger and older it fades or morphs into something else?

Re: Sailfish Nursery

Your lakes must have high salinity content if they can hold fish like that in Bill...I know what you mean by the aquarium thing though, would be nice
