Mountain and LandFishing
Japan has a rich fishing history, mostly focused on fishing in the open seas for tuna and other tasty fish you find at the countless sushi shops around the country. However, Japan anglers will find plenty of options for lure fishing in lakes, fly fishing in rivers and coastal headwaters and other traditional methods for fishing in Japan. Explore the still waters, deep waters and fast flowing waters in Japan for your next catch.
