Most of the lures we use are raids. We have a variety of colors so that we don't have to worry about them in the field.

What do you wear when you go fishing?
Like the bags and tackle boxes, they are all in military colors. I also often wear items that are collaborations between fishing manufacturers and fashion brands.
I was surprised to see so many people in the fashion industry who fish for bass.
Yes, I have been going bass fishing alone since I started fishing again about three years ago, but recently I have been getting more and more friends to go with me. This "joycro" was a birthday present from them.

Guncraft Jointed Craw
GAN CRAFT's "Jointed Craw," isn't it?
I was happy because I didn't have a single big bait. I haven't caught anything with it yet, so my goal is to catch it.

Supreme x Dirdebreu
It's a lure that can't be lost. ......
That's right. Also, a friend of mine gave me this, and I can't lose it, or rather, I can't open it. It's a lure made by Supreme in collaboration with Dardevle. A friend of mine who used to work at Supreme was moving away from Tokyo, so I got this after our last fishing trip together. I love the hot tiger color scheme.

I didn't catch any fish the other day, what do you think?
I think it's important to first look at the river's flowage on Google Maps to determine the point of interest. Do you want to go downstream from upstream of the dam or upstream from downstream? It is not good to stick too much to a place where you can't fish. In my case, I often fish from land, so if I don't catch any fish, I move to another lake.
I need to study.
Mr. Tsuridoron," which was serialized in Monthly Shonen Magazine in the '90s, is recommended for both those who are just starting out and those who already do bass fishing, as it is a fun way to learn the basics through manga. There is a column in the middle of the book where the author goes fishing and describes everything from how to choose the right equipment to how to fish, so if you are interested in trying it, reading this book will make you want to try bass fishing. When I was in elementary school, I also studied by reading this.

Raid Japan 2-way
By the way, what lures do you use when the moment is right?
This is "2WAY" by "RAID JAPAN". It was recommended to me, and when I tried it, I caught a lot of fish. As the name suggests, this worm can be used in two ways. If you cut it in the middle to make it smaller, you can make it bite more. It is so popular that it sells out quickly, so I always buy it when I find it, and I have a variety of colors so that I don't have to worry about it in the field. Most of the lures I use are "Raid.
