Gurukun Fishing

There were a few things I wanted to do before leaving Okinawa.  One of those things was to go out fishing on a boat again.  A and I were invited to join Shacho (from the car shop) and his friends for a day of Gurukun Fishing.  We headed out from Ginowan Marina at about 8am on a hot and sunny day.

I started the day off well by catching a Gurukun right away.  I wish I had been able to keep on catching them but my luck ran out after this first fish.  In 8 hours I think I caught 4 fish..... NOT GOOD.

The old dudes we were fishing with had MUCH better LUCK than me and reeled in about 30 fish EACH!  No fair!  いんちき!

  1. The colours of the fish are so amazing and unlike anything that you see in Canada!
    Have you cooked and eaten them?

  3. We still have not eaten them.... Every time I open the freezer I see them in there looking quite pitiful. Hopefully we will cook them up before we leave for Canada :)
