日本の釣り「へら鮒」 /Japanese fishing "Hera" MARUKYU

へら鮒釣りは、日本古来のゲームフィッシングとして親しまれてきました。 魚やエサの状態、仕掛けの動きなど全ての情報を浮子の動きで判断し、最終的にスレがかりではなく「食った魚」を釣果として認めるという特徴を持つ釣りです。 1960年代以降へらブームが起こり、現在に至るまで「道具」「釣り場」「釣技」は急激な成長を遂げました。また、国内外では和竿が日本の伝統工芸品として注目を集めています。 ーーーー The crucian carp “Hera” fishing has been a popular Japanese game fishing since ancient times. This type of fishing is characterized by determining all information such as the condition of the fish and baits, and the movement of the bait based on the movement of the float, and ultimately recognizing the “fish that has eaten” as the catch, rather than the fish caught. The crucian carp fishing boom began in the 1960s, and tools fishing spots, and fishing techniques have grown rapidly to this day. Additionally, Japanese bamboo rods are attracting attention both domestically and internationally as a traditional Japanese craft.
