Still baby-sitter

Just before sunrise 4:55.

My strategy of today was focusing KOKAGE's spinner and ignoring HIRATA & FUTASUJI.

I often see you FUTASUJI early morning.
Maybe it will be good plan using your imitation next morning trip.


Don' t scare my fish, please.

I'm getting fed up with baby-sitting...

It should be golden time though

15:30-16:30 too short, but should be almost golden time.

Seeing several ERUMON on Friday, picked this green body's one today.
(It doesn't look like beautiful fly, sorry)

See you again, baby.

I missed two good one's bite. Their attack was so speedy, which means my fly doesn't match the hatch or the main drifter which they fed. I think 'Masking hatch' should be key. You have to prove your hypothesis soon, Lance.

Happy Time again

Since I can't go early morning fishing tomorrow, having a happy time again tonight. Tonight's amusement is 'Initial D', go FD! Foolish boy, Lance.

Peaceful Saturday

She is the chief cook of breakfast this morning.

The lavender tells us the early summer coming.

She loves to see the butterfly very much, saying 'CHO-CHO'.

It is a kind of common species, but I couldn't find it in  my picture book.

Evening fishing after work on weekday

When I went back home on Happy Wednesday(no overtime work), I noticed that the days are noticeably longer. Which means 'Don't miss the weekday's evening, Lance!'.
Finding 1: You can fish 18:15-19:00.
Finding 2:  Water was a little colored because of last night's rain. But water level itself was not bad.
Finding 3:  Everything is in hurry. It was hard to keep my composure...
Finding 4:  There were lots of HIRATA's spinner, and hatch itself was slow today.
Finding 5:  Fishes were so smart, even in the dark. I could see some rises today, and I thought I could hook them up easily. But they stopped biting just in front of my fly.

Thank you for coming, baby.

She as photographer

likes to take a pic of Mother Nature. I gave my old single-lens reflex camera to her.

Her pic, I liked it. We walked down to the river this evening. My younger daughter could walk by her foot there from our house! Good job, you must be also active Lance's daughter, too. 

We saw several mayfly's hatches there HIRATA, KOKAGE, and one good rise for them! You have to be there in the evening, Lance.

Mother's day

I'm taking care of everything all day long today. It is time to cook dinner,Lance.

Got the last chance

Good morning, guys. I'm 'Early Bird Lance' this morning again.

5:15-7:10, I felt the sunrise time was getting earlier just a little bit.

Last evening's hatch, BWO, FUTABA_KOKAGE(new finding), 

And ERABUTA_MADARA also new to me here.
 It had three tails(hard to see it in this pic).

The water level and color was excellent. But reaction of fish was so slow... Maybe it was a little cold temp. this morning. It was lucky to catch this one at last hole. Thanks, god!

1 week after GW

It is difficult to be back to normal life after GW. I was so exhausted this week... Go out and take a walk around our house.












I think I was recharged well. Thanks, sweetie and sugar.

Last two days of GW in my hometown

My old bike was given to my dad, who loves taking exercise.

We enjoyed BBQ there on Children's Day.

Lots of cherries was good to eat now, which my aunt took care of.



Our annual event HATAMI shellfish gathering.

Enjoyed our GW, sooo tired.  Good night, sleep tight...

Test of new wader

My original plan was to keep wearing the old wader till it would break. But couldn't wait it. My impression of new one is, so good so far! Still 5:30-7:00 time frame...

This FUTASUJI has hatched just in front of me. It stands out well, but it is not major hatch quite a few numbers.


Fishing itself was so slow because of heavy rain few days ago.

Planning of next morning fishing though, it is hard no to fall asleep...
