I also got the second bite of the tour and successfully set hook.
The lure was on fire with the ability to allure the fish to bite by the appeal,
silhouette, and surfacing posture after popping.

I would be lying if I said I was satisfied with the size,
but managed to land a 20kg GT being the biggest during our tour.
Landing 3 GTs from 3 bites was an improvement since my last visit here resulted in a line-breakage.
Although it was not a big fish, it was satisfying and I got my revenge.

With the first fishing trip with in Japan this year,
I was able to experience first hand the difficulties and challenge of fishing in Japan.
However, I was able to go back to my routes and recognize the importance of doing what should be done to land a fish without any errors.
For 4 days, the 6 of us continuously casted our lures.
Although I personally got 3 bites, the situation was tough and there were only 6 bites in total.
Throught this experience,
I was able to tell my self the importance of doing the usual thing to be able to land a Super size GT
which will at some point attack my lure.
