    Another May 17 SWAP thread - Your wants and haves (gear)

    I’ll have this fishpond hand net ($50) and this brand new, unused whiting bronze dark barred ginger saddle ($50) if anyone’s interested. I have some other nice reels but they’re not particularly good deals because I’m trying to fund something I really don’t need ;)

    Anyone have a stupid entry level rod for a 7 year old? Probably a push button over spinning real with the little flippy thing (I know, def using the right language). My kid had what amounted to a barbie one but she broke it last year. She uses her Echo Gecko in streams, but a spinning rod is...

    Anyone fish Japan?

    We're a ways out :). We've been trying to get to Asia the past couple years but always balked as we were scared by the amount of walking and moving we'd want to do wouldn't be worth it with the kiddo (little legs get tired). So we've gone to Mexico (usually CDMX, Guadalajara, Oaxaca, and one...

    Anyone fish Japan?

    Totally understand, not looking for rocks to stand on. Just looking for general areas that I can then try to look into. It's one thing researching stuff in your home State/country, another halfway across the world. Thank you so much. tim

    Anyone fish Japan?

    This is such a helpful starting point, thank you so much. If I have anymore specific questions are you ok if I pm you? Thinking a 4wt glass rod is sufficient for the small stream stuff, what wt rod are you using for the seabass in Tokyo bay?

    Anyone fish Japan?

    Awesome thank you. For what it’s worth, I’m generally against the idea of guides for a myriad of reasons.

    Anyone fish Japan?

    I’m laid up post op and dreaming… The family and I are in the preliminary stages of planning a 2-3 week trip to Japan for next year and I’d really love to get in a day or two of fishing for yamame or amago if the opportunity presents itself. Has anyone done any small stream fishing in Japan...

    Err.. a lot. I have 4 big ones and my guess is they each hold 15lbs each, so I do have to keep the rest in the bag until I get there. Not ideal. I should get more, but they’re not cheap.

    I buy 2 50lb bags at a time (Glacier Peak and I think it’s the Sonoma?) and the 100lbs lasts me about a year. I store it in resturant grade cambro (sp?) containers in my basement and so far I’ve never had flour weevils.

    So I ended up scoring pretty big. A good friend of mine has been in the process of starting a small batch baking company and has a wholesale account with cainsprings distributor. So I’m now able to order and pick up from the distributor that’s about 30 minutes from home now.
