Feature 1: We offer private sessions whenever possible to perfectly tailor the experience to your first time. This plan is designed for those who want to start fishing or are looking for a way to get into it. Of course, if you have already bought your own gear but don't know how to use it, feel free to bring it along, and we will provide as much advice as we can. Our staff, mostly up-and-coming individuals who have received practical training at marine vocational schools, will be there to assist you, making it easy and reassuring even for children.
Feature 2: Otaru is just 40 minutes from Sapporo by JR, and you can join us empty-handed. We offer pick-up services from accommodations and landmarks around Otaru Station. You can participate in this plan without bringing anything, as gear and bait are provided. Please feel free to use this as a fun activity during your trip. If you are coming from Sapporo Station, you can reach Otaru in 35–40 minutes via the JR Rapid Airport train (800 yen one-way for adults). Please consult with us regarding free pick-up from accommodations and landmarks in the city center around Otaru Station (between JR Otaru Station and Otaru-Chikko Station). We can also provide suggestions for meals after your experience.
Feature 3: While we primarily use bait and a 'bura' (a weighted lure that also acts as a reflector) or sabiki rigs, we can also prepare gear for light casting or float fishing. To ensure you fully feel the sensation of fishing, this plan focuses on sabiki fishing or 'hechi' fishing (targeting the area right under the wharf) using a bura. However, we can also provide rods for casting, which is great for those who don't mind waiting a bit longer for a catch. During the experience, while aiming for relatively easy catches with sabiki rigs, you can also try casting in between, and the feeling of hooking a larger fish is truly unforgettable.

Product Info
This experience takes place at Otaru Port, a harbor renowned for being a natural gem. On weekdays, we primarily operate at Umaya-machi Wharf and Kitahama Wharf, which are close to the city center, while on weekends and holidays, we operate mainly at the quieter Shioya Fishing Port. While each guide has their own preferred fishing style, we hope you will feel the joy of catching a fish regardless of the method used. Basically, the experience involves either fishing with a rig called a 'bura' from the wharf or using a 'sabiki' rig, which has multiple hooks. Depending on the season and your mood, we may also offer light casting, where you cast 20–30 meters and wait for a bite, or float fishing as an option. This plan is designed to be the prologue to your fishing journey. As there will be no other groups mixed in with your guide, you can enjoy the experience without any hesitation. We will help you fully engage your five senses—and perhaps a sixth—so that this experience leads to your next fishing adventure. While we cover the basics, we also use gear that is easily accessible, including items sold at common 100-yen shops, so that you can easily assemble your own kit later. We can also procure gear for you upon request. 【Examples】 March–May: Atka mackerel, herring, etc. June–September: Mackerel, horse mackerel, rockfish, etc. October–November: Flounder, mantis shrimp, etc. Year-round: Ezo rockfish, black rockfish, etc. Nearby, there are tourist attractions like the Otaru Canal and Sakaimachi Street, commercial facilities like the Minami Otaru Market and Wing Bay Otaru, and a variety of sushi restaurants, offering plenty to enjoy after fishing depending on the time. It might even be a nice little drive for those living near Sapporo. For those staying in Otaru, please consult with us regarding pick-up between hotels in the city center. We are here to support your debut!! (Our Fishing Level: I)
