Beautiful.

I always really enjoy your posts, the fish are stunning and the streamside scenery is great as well. Streams are similar the world over but the little differences are what I enjoy. I know you say the fishing is not the best in the world and the fish are small but that's a small part of the whole experience and I would love to visit and fish in your country. I'm sure 99.9% of us would.

Thank you for taking us on the journey.

Thoroughly enjoyed your streamside odyssey & hope there will be many more to come.
Thanks for sharing...

Fabulous post Sotoshi. The waters look so familiar yet the fish look so exotic. It's really a thrill to see the trout and char of your country.

Thanks for sharing!

Nice post Satoshi... but then again, all your posts are good. I enjoyed reading them on the old Smallstreams site as well. Looking forward to your coming adventures this summer. Until then, be well.

Superb photos, great storytelling, and wonderful fish. Isn't it amazing how a trout stream looks like a trout stream the world over?

Satoshi,

I really enjoyed your photos and stories! Thanks for sharing!!! Funny how those places and your experiences remind me a lot of the places I've been in the western US... I plan on hitting Japan once my book gets out, and I'd really like to get some pics. of the native fish. Maybe for another book... ;)
