Huge catch of 4-striped eels in the Kasumi waters

[Galápagos Lake Kasumigaura Water System Monitor Report]

This time we would like to introduce the new product "Kubire Eel 4" from Galápagos, which will be released soon!

I'd like to introduce some of the patterns I've actually used to catch fish in the Lake Kasumigaura waters, my home base, and my own way of using them!

It's autumn! The water level in the Kasumigaura water system is low in almost all areas. The cover I usually fish in is just at the depth where fish can barely stay. I immediately set off with a leaderless down shot using a 4" Cone Eel with a 5g sinker.

I shot it into the low-water cover where shrimp-eating bass were likely to be, then let it hit the bottom. Then I immediately shook it down to the middle layer!

As for the important part, the shake, here's the key point!

The key is to move the tail of the eel up and down slowly but strongly, shaking it. This will create a strong water push, making it more effective against the wary bass in the Kasumigaura waters! And it's a hit! You can catch a lot of fish regardless of size, and even catch kilofish that eat shrimp in the fall!

Also, when talking about the Kasumigaura water system, you often see piles. To approach the piles, cast a 5g rig a little offshore, just like the cover, and create the illusion of a drifting small fish by swimming without tension or loosening! It strongly appeals to bass that reach the piles offshore! I caught several with this pattern!

The two-sword worm "Kubireunagi" can disguise itself as both a baitfish and a shrimp!

This is a worm that has never been seen before, and I am looking forward to its release!!
