Thread: High water

  1. #11
    Those Iwana so remind me of brookies. Obviously them being char is the reason but there's more and I can't put my finger on exactly what it is. Your dining hall picture reminds me of the cabin I belong to except we don't have women/a woman serving. One guy tried to sneak his girlfirend in once (a married man) though. He got a stern talking to (not by me). The PROMINANT parr marks on Amago are so fascinating. Typing of that. What are their preferences, as far as flies?

    Thanks for a great report, Satoshi--water, decisions, life, challenges, reflection and fish.

    tinydries, njtrout, ksbioteacher,

    Thank you for your comments.
    njtrout, she, who is serving in the dining of ReRise, is currently being employed by the lodge. For the flies that amago prefer, in those freestone mountain streams, they take almost anything that look edible to them, though amago rather prefers smaller flies than iwana does. I believe it's just like trout living in small mountain streams in the U.S.

    Hi Satoshi,
    what a lovely article, here in New Zealand it is midwinter and a bad one with heavy snow, then heavy rain and continous floods so no chance of casting a line. Your pictures have brightened a very dull time and I hope that your father has enjoyed them with you too.

    Satoshi, my map of Japan does not have enough detail.

    I will have to use Google Earth.

    I will also re-visit my map shop.

    We may have a visitor one or two days, Yoshikazu Fujioka. He is a Internet friend and if you don't mind, maybe he will be able to meet us. I have known him for a long time, he is a friend of smallstreams.com

    I really enjoy your post but I don't like high water...

    heathcote,

    Thank you for your warm comment. I think a lot of snow probably means plenty of water in the next season.

    adam,

    Of course I don't mind. Let's arrange our schedule so that we can meet him somewhere.

    Satoshi, as we get closer, I may introduce you to Mr. Fujiyoka in order for both of you to acquaint yourselves. At that time, it will be easier for the both of you to schedule our visit. I would like to stay at Gokayama village, Mr. Fujiyoka likes this area as well and may want to stay. He may want to guide us to his best stream...

    In my area, high water comes with rains, the trout hide when high water is upon us. I am lazy and am not wanting trout enough to endure high water. When I come to Japan, I hope the high water is hiding instead of the trout.

    Great report Satoshi. Beautiful fish and scenery. I too, hope to make it to Japan one day to fly fish. Your photos make me want to go even more. Maybe some day. It is good that you are able to spend time with your father like that. I know wha you are going through. I wish you the best of luck.

    I never tire of pics from lands so far away, who's streams hold such beautifully marked amago & iwana. .......& I hope your ailing father finds the strength he once had.
