Only one silver salmon caught

Finally, I could see the fish.
“A little more patience.''

One meter to the big net.
 I can't move my arm anymore.
Kotetsu is waiting with his camera.
He squeezes his teeth and pulls the thread.

 The fish jumped into the net.

Silver salmon (9kg) that shines in silver.

The exhaled breath is blessed by white sleet rain.

The two fishing rods are in order.
It's cold on the sea.

Kotetsu entered the cabin early.
Captain's "10 minutes left".

When I put up a rod,
I was surprised at how strong it was.
After all, salmon fishing was my first experience.
 Anyway, the pull is strong.

 I wonder what kind of big fish was hung,
but the power is defeated by the fish.

 I can hear the voice of "roll fast",
but the strength of my arm has already reached its limit.

Suppress the voice that went out to the throat saying
"I can't do it anymore, change!" And squeeze the last power.絞る

My fishing style is a golf raincoat and a ski hat.
The gloves are for the camera I bought when shooting in winter in Hokkaido.

 After 3 hours, a Florida fisherman had two 10kg and 6kg silver salmon.

A young man in California gets a small silver.
 

The latter four cannot catch any of them.
30 minutes left. The total number of hits is 6, and the fish wins 3 times.

The point of fish finder is 120ft-150ft (36m-45m).

The mechanism is to attach a clip to the guide
thread with a weight of 4 kg,

sandwich it between the clips, and sink it to the point.

 If the fish bites, the thread will come off the clip
and hit the rod the boat goes slowly.

The hook is 3 cm in size and the bait is a big salt salmon fillet.

It seems that the gimmick of super big fishing is aiming for halibut.

I changed the points a couple of times, but there was no hit.
The fishing results are rising on the nearby boat.

Switch the mechanism to salmon fishing and use a lure for drift fishing.

Departure at 5:30 in the evening, 8 crew members captain and assistant fishermen from Florida and San Diego.

An Island fishing enthusiast grandmother (83) and her nephew a young man from California.

And the representatives of Japan are Kotetsu and myself.
The point is about 20 minutes from the port.
 I put out a rod immediately, but no one hit it.

 "NO" Then I was given a note to go get the license.
The fishing equipment store I finally found sells even
hunting guns and pistols.

It seems that local people bring a pistol for bears
even when they go fishing.

The license fee is $ 30 per person!

Where on earth is this money going?

Speaking of salmon fishing, I think it's a "river", but this is American sea fishing.

Pay $ 314 (for two) at the hotel tour desk.

"Is there a license?"

I'm not a fisherman, and I don't think I have that kind of thing.

Everyone was happy to be with me as
I breathed on my shoulders.

The captain "David (43)" who extended
the time to try to catch one by a traveler
from Japan is a fearless man living in the sea
 

"Thank you"
 I was grateful for the blessings of the sea
and felt the need for training again due to
my lack of strength.
Hurry to the harbor in the romantic fog. 
The sun hasn't set yet.
The fishing rod will be returned at 9:30.
