One of the many highlights and discoveries in Japan was finding a growing choice of what can only be described as ‘nano metals’. Those weighing under 3.5 grams.

Mebaru Game
With evening descending upon us and darkness setting in, it was time to activate ‘Plan Mebaru’.
Light Rockfishing Japan
Without doubt, the highlight of our recent trip to Osaka, Japan was going fishing with my friend Masa and his pal Shigehiro. Despite the week’s excitement of the Osaka Fishing Show, both George and myself were really buzzing to try Light Game in the motherland, Japan.
LRF Cuckoo Wrasse
We had a dozen or so Cuckoo Wrasse from the boat last weekend. Both male and female fish. Their bizarre colour-schemes make them a super interesting catch. A great LRF target. Particularly aggressive.
Plaice on XL Isome
Nice day on the boat, with Chris and I both ticking off Plaice for the year. A kind of mutant split shot rig presented an XL Isome on the drift.
CLFoff Tour
With the Cornish Lure Festival cancelled for 2017, Dan, Chris and myself decided to fish it anyway! And so we began our lure-only species hunt around Cornwall for a few days.
Light Rock Fishing in Kefalonia
Did some LRF around Agia Efimia, while on holiday for a week on the Greek island of Kefalonia (one of our favourites). This year I played things a little differently and kept the Isome in its packet, concentrating on metals, micro hardbaits and soft plastics.
LRF Pollack at Skarnsundet
There was some great LRF Pollack fishing to be had out the back of our apartment at Skarnsundet. 60cm fish were in range of a 1 or 2 gram jighead at certain stages of the tide and put up a great fight on a 7g rated LRF rod. Massive fun.
