Thank you for your comment Hasegawa! Regarding the T-rvsg25 and t-rvsg40h guides, I think they are indeed superior. However, it depends on the characteristics of the rod and the concept of convergence of the line, so it has to be Koch! It is always better to think of the right guide for the right job, not the other way around!
@@8000ch because i diy upgrading my fishing rod guides ! My seabass rod I use t-rvtg25 as butt then 2nd t-rvtg16 , then my popping fishing rod and H shore jigging rod both use t-rvtg40h as butt guide then 2nd guide use t-rvtg30
You are DIY! I thought I wanted a larger diameter, but I was surprised at how good the small diameter high frame New X guide used in Shimano's COLTSNIPER LIMITED is!
Hello! It's great to see another video of yours! Japanese Blackfin Seabass is another species that I would love to catch one day, if I can. And again, your fishing spots are amazing.
Whenever you guys drop a vid in youtube, I know it is going to be a good one! Mr. Taro, some epic shots there on the plane ahahahah More than the fishing, which I know it can be amazing, the fishing spots are simply incredible! I'm always amazed with them. That first GT was beautiful. Really cool fish. I'm impressed the sharks didn't took a bite out of him. The rest of the GTs are all great fish. Do you guys always handle them by grabbing the mouth? You don't use a grip? GT have decent teeth, I've seen some scars from people grabbing them by the mouth with their hands. All in all, another great video.
Thanks for the comment! Mr. Taro is always sleeping, haha! I too hope this great fishing spot lasts forever, that shark was amazing! Whitetip shark? Good thing it was a whitetip shark and didn't bite me off. The grips they sell in Japan won't fit in the mouth of a 25+kg GT, do you have grips that open wide over there?
@@8000ch There are a couple of grips made for tuna and even though they can be a bit heavy and large, we use them for large Amberjacks and abroad for big GT and big Kingfish. An example is the Pratiko Bluewater Grip - X Small size (40cm long, weighs 1.1kg). Really great grip. I think there might be some other, but that one I've used and can recommend, it is built to last and endure. Expensive but really good.
Oh! I know this one! I thought they were for offshore fishing, but they have small ones too. I've never seen them in Japanese fishing tackle shops, but they are sold by mail order. Thanks! I'll refer to it!
Since we are fishing in a rocky area, it is natural for rods to get scratched. Scratches on the edge of the reel spool (where the line touches) can be fatal, so if the scratch is shallow, I use a paper file to remove it. I don't know if this translation is accurate.
