Be Free Texas rig / JUNGLEGYM Beans Sinker Be Free Texas rig. Today, I’ll introduce a Japanese rig you may have not seen yet. This is it. BE FREE TEXAS using Jungle Gym Beans Sinker. This rig is very popular in Japan, especially for Saltwater Rockfish fishing.  Jungle Gym is a small fishing brand, which has produced lots of Rockfish gear. This is Beans Sinker, designed for fishing a rocky bottom. This unique design provides a better snag-free capability. A rig using this weight is called BE FREE TEXAS. A short version is BIFUTEKI. I guess BE FREE means “Being free from snag”. BE FREE TEXAS using Beans Sinker would be an interesting rig for all of you who love Texas, Free, and Jika rig. This sinker can be used just like a bullet weight. But the shape is totally different.  Top narrow, bottom big. Teardrop shape. This bottom-heavy shape provides a stable form when we cast a rig. Means a long-distance cast. And this also would fall vertically than the bullet weight....

 Shimano and Daiwa are 2 big Japanese fishing brands. I could say they are now the WORLD biggest fishing brands. Especially for the mid-end to high-end fishing reels, believe they've been dominating the global market.   In this article, I'll explain how to read the Shimano Fishing Rod (Bass rods) spec code.   This rod is Shimano Scorpion 1581F-2.

When the rod is 6 feet 10 inches, this can be "610", 3 digits. When the rod length is over 10 feet, it can be 3 digits, too.  Power  [1] This number describes the rod power.

[Fishing Tips] TAMO AMI. Japanese landing net - FISHING JAPANESE STYLE

-

 When I first time moved to North America, I was surprised that I could not find any telescopic landing pole.  In Japan, Tamo-ami タモ網 is very popular and we can find it at any fishing store. It has a telescopic pole and net. The telescopic could be from 2m to 6m. When we fish from the rock, cliff, jetty, pier, etc.. we need a landing net with a very long pole. The telescopic landing pole makes it.  I introduce a Japanese-style landing net/pole. Tamo Ami.  In the U.S. (and Canada), I could not find it. So I bought some in Japan and brought it back. When I was into Bass Fishing, it was not always necessary. Since in many cases, I was fish at the water edge and could easily hand-landing the fish. But when I used Jerkbait with 3 triple hooks, the landing net was very useful. Multi triple hooks can be very dangerous for hand landing.  Then I started saltwater fishing a couple of years ago here in Southern California. The landing net got to be very important for me. I...
