I had absolutely no experience with lure fishing and didn’t know how to use the equipment, so I was nervous the whole time. But thanks to the guide, who patiently taught me everything from scratch, my anxiety vanished immediately. Fishing while gazing out at the beautiful, crystal-clear ocean was incredibly refreshing, and the joy of reeling in a fish myself was truly special.

I was able to experience my first time lure fishing in beautiful ocean waters, and I think it was a good value. The cooking service at the izakaya was also appealing. However, since there are few places to get out of the sun, it would have been perfect if they had emphasized the importance of sun protection—such as wearing a hat—even more in their advance announcements. Overall, I’m satisfied.

The fact that you can participate without any equipment is a big advantage since you can borrow a complete set of tools. I also enjoyed lure fishing on the coral reef. The guidance to the tavern where we could bring our catch was also smooth. If I may say so, I was a little concerned that the sunshade space was a little small.

As a “hands-free” lure fishing tour that includes meal preparation at an izakaya, I think it offers excellent value for the price. The support for beginners was thorough, and fishing in the beautiful ocean was a wonderful experience. However, since you have to take a short boat ride to reach the fishing spot, those prone to seasickness should take some precautions beforehand to make the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I was completely satisfied with the tour.

User: qqoj40代

Since you can participate without bringing anything and have the fish you catch cooked for you at the izakaya, I think it’s a great value. The coral reef scenery was beautiful, too. However, casting the lure takes a bit of practice, so it would have been perfect if there had been a little more hands-on, one-on-one instruction. Overall, it was a satisfying experience.

I participated in this tour with my third grader, my oldest son, and my wife. All of us were new to lure fishing, but the captain carefully taught us from the beginning and we all enjoyed the experience. All three of us caught many fish except me. I didn't expect to catch any fish, but I was happy because my children caught a lot of fish and were happy. He took lots of pictures of our catch and shared them with us on Airdrop before we disembarked. The captain also contacted the island's tavern directly and we were able to have four of the fish we caught for dinner. Boiled fish, sashimi, and fried fish were all delicious, and it was a great food education experience for the kids. I highly recommend this tour.
