京浜運河

京浜運河 cuts through 神奈川県, Japan and offers classic canal fishing. The local patterns are the universal river patterns: fish the heads of pools at first light, the deep slow water in the middle of the day, and the tail-outs as light fades. Light tackle and a careful drift go a long way at 京浜運河 — heavy splashes spook a whole pool.

Fishing Techniques

• For Japanese jack mackerel

  Use a slow, steady retrieve with slight twitches to entice strikes, especially when using soft plastics near the bottom.

• For Marbled Rockfish

  Fish near rocky structures or reefs where Marbled Rockfish tend to ambush prey and vary your retrieve speed to find what triggers them.

• For Japanese seabass

  Vary your retrieve speed and depth to find what the fish are responding to on any given day; seabass can be quite finicky.
