MEMO
It was fine and very hot. I have left my home port "Harbor Tsuhama" by my fishing boat. I went to the sea off Hota coast in the condition of weak south-west wind. The sea was dark-blue color and very clear. There were many people who had a dip in the sea near Hota coast(I felt a dip in the sea was better than fishing). I began fishing with row boat and professional fishing boat at the place. My boat was streamed with sea current by Parachute anchor around 1 km off Hota coast. I did it all over again when my boat came off the ponit. I did it again and again. But I didn't get any Shirogisu of my target. I got only some Megochi. So I changed the target to Aji from Shirogisu and moved to off Kanaya. But I didn't get any Aji of my target here too. I got only some Kawahagi.

Anyway, I didn't get the target fish and it was a very hot day for me.
