Troubles

The surface of the lake was pretty rough last evening.

It seemed the trolling mount got damaged when we returned .

Mr. Kitajima used a screw driver first thing in the morning.

Not a rod, but a screw driver.

It took about 15 minutes to get repaired.

He is very flexible with troubles like this.

We saw him as a professional angler

who is challenging in America, the home of bass fishing.

The dramatic first day!

An amazing guy!

The first day was the hard day as the water was muddy

after a typhoon with a lot of rain, and water temperature was low.

He got last fishing point for the day in the evening.

He went to the best point where he marked on the map

this morning.

It was the fourth time that he tried the area.

He caught a big one with DACE 160F!

It behaved violently, but his fishing technique was great.

Fishing on Lake Biwa was for the first time in 8 years for him,

but he moved around the lake to see the condition

for more the half day.

And this is the result!

Awesome!
