Katsuya Chishima, Yamame ©TV Osaka 【Program Name】"THE Fishing" Early Summer Mainstream Fishing Targeting Yamame and Amago with a Fixed-Length Rod 【Broadcast Date and Time】May 16, 2026 (Sat) 5:30 PM - 6:00 PM Produced by TV Osaka, broadcast nationwide on the TV Tokyo network 【Cast】 Katsuya Chishima 【Program HP】https://www.tv-osaka.co.jp/ip4/the_fishing/ Early Summer Mainstream Fishing: Targeting Yamame and Amago with a Fixed-Length Rod This time, we feature 'mainstream fishing,' aiming for large yamame and amago with a fixed-length rod. A mainstream generally refers to a river with a width of 10 meters or more, allowing anglers to target larger fish than in mountain streams. Chishima ©TV Osaka First, we arrive at the Takahara River in Gifu Prefecture. This first-class river originates from Mount Norikura in the Northern Alps and flows into Toyama Bay. In the mainstream area nestled in the mountains of Hida City, the goal is to catch yamame over 30 cm. ©TV Osaka The angler is Katsuya Chishima, an expert in this style of fishing, who travels throughout Japan mainly for wakasagi (icefish) and freshwater bait fishing. Chishima ©TV Osaka The charm of mainstream fishing lies in feeling the fish's pull directly with a reel-less fixed-length rod. Chishima has prepared long 9.5m and 10.5m fixed-length rods. As he explores a wide area of the broad river with his long rod... "Yes! Got one! It's a good fight!" Chishima ©TV Osaka An immediate strike! Chishima's excitement about the potential of the Takahara River is palpable! Yamame ©TV Osaka The next day, he moves to the Tenryu River, a first-class river originating from Lake Suwa in Nagano Prefecture. In a complete change from the previous day, he enters an area flowing through the urban center of Ina City, Nagano. ©TV Osaka The Tenryu River is known for amago, not yamame. Moreover, it is famous as a spot for catching large ones. Amago ©TV Osaka In the early morning, as he stands in the still-quiet urban river and lets his bait drift... "Got one! It's fighting pretty hard!" Chishima ©TV Osaka Another big strike right away! The 10.5m rod bends into a large arc. A 30-minute program packed with the charm of mainstream fishing, set against the stages of lush nature in the mountains and a bustling city! Look forward to it!
