This is a set of 5 fishing rigs for catching Ayu (sweetfish). They are generally called "nagashigari" or "machi-gari" rigs. The hooks are either Kitsune (fox) or Yajima type, size 8, tied with 1.5-go thread, 50 hooks per rig. The hook type cannot be specified as it depends on current stock. To ensure they are safe even when wet, each rig is individually sealed in vacuum-packed food film. Unlike "tomozuri" (friend fishing), these rigs allow you to set them up and place them in the current, and the Ayu will catch themselves. For the main line, use about 3-go nylon or 0.8-go PE line. Attach a sinker below the main line according to the current. Below the sinker, attach the nagashigari rig, and finally, attach a float. [Product Condition, etc.] These are new and unused rigs. These are the rigs that have allowed me to catch 150 to 250 Ayu for 7 consecutive years since the opening of the Ayu season. These rigs can be used in areas where "korogashi" (rolling) fishing is permitted. In the Kanto region, I consistently caught around 30-80 Ayu per day during the season. When the catch was low, it was because the Ayu were large and sparse. First, I would catch Ayu using nagashigari as baitfish ("otori") and then start "tomozuri". If the catch was steady, I would continue with that method, but if the rotation of baitfish was interrupted, I would secure more baitfish with nagashigari and catch enough for dinner. The previous day, in a spot where Ayu of around 23 cm were biting readily with "tomozuri", the next day, even when I let the baitfish swim naturally, there was no reaction. Wondering where the previous day's frenzy had gone and if there were any Ayu left, I deployed the nagashigari rig, and Ayu of around 23 cm started biting, 2 or 3 at a time. While Biwako (Lake Biwa) Ayu may chase baitfish throughout the day, sea-caught Ayu have inconsistent periods of chasing baitfish. In areas where "korogashi" was difficult, the Ayu remained and grew large. In the Yahagi River and Toyokawa River systems in Aichi Prefecture, there are many fans who practice this type of fishing throughout the day. If you have any questions about choosing fishing spots or fishing techniques, please feel free to ask.
