Making Hair Hooks

Hairhooks are made with a simple hook and feathers or hair to catch insects, larvae, and other fish that interfere with your territory. There are an infinite number of types of hairhooks to choose from, depending on how nature changes in a few days.

TENKARA Fishing

This fishing technique originated in Japan and has become a world trend in mountain stream fishing. The guide will teach you how to fish at the best spot of the day, so even beginners and children can start fishing. Tenkara fishing is often referred to as "ninja fishing" because of the way it is done quietly and from the shadows. Immerse yourself in this simple yet interesting world.

Japanese Char

The rockfish is called "Japanese Char" in English. Similar to salmonids, their overseas approximations have a descending life history, descending to the sea during the growth process and migrating upstream after maturing. However, because char prefer cold water environments, Japanese char do not migrate to warmer waters, but stay near the headwaters of cold-water rivers for the rest of their lives (land-locked life history).

In addition to rockfish, a variety of other fish can be caught. What kind of fish will be caught is up to you.

Guide Introduction

Hisanori Imanishi is a nature guide living in Hakuba Village who loves nature and is loved by it.
His hundreds of self-made hair hooks are truly works of art, the result of over 30 years of trial and error. The insects that feed the fish and the vegetation of the four seasons change in just a few days. Mr. Imanishi's experience and knowledge of the natural flow of the water allows him to select hair hooks and guide you into the bosom of nature with his sixth sense of wonder.
Through his life's work as a nature guide, I would like to convey the depth, strength, and fragility of nature," says Imanishi, whose eyes are always on the protection and coexistence of nature.
