世界中のラッキークラフトファンの皆さま～！Daily Flash Minnow Weekly Reportになります！
3ヶ月ぶりにNewport Beachに釣行にいく事！！最後に来たのは５月下旬まったくケルプが無く、ルアーマンにとっては最高の時期でしたが、夏場は天敵のケルプが多く慎重にリトリーブをしなくてはならない。キャストの回数も減少し釣果率も下がることになるとだろう！なぜ、そのようなことが起きるかというと、足元ギリギリまでルアー引いてくるとケルプにひっかかり、ルアーの回収が困難になるとケルプ前で一旦リトリーブを止めルアーがフロートするのを待って引き上げると回収可能になる。そのため、時間にロスがうまれるのである。
昨年、釣りを始めた頃はよくルアーをケルプにひっかけ失くしました。懐かしいものですね！！笑
さて、本日は、微風からやや強い風に変化したため、ジェティー沿いからの釣行を途中で切り上げ、今回は初めて釣行するポイントに移動！ ここは餌釣りの人が毎回居て、人気のスポットでもあり、風も当たらず好いポイントだが、ルアーマンには少し狭い環境だが、トライすることにした。ケルプの存在を気にせず釣行が出来るのだが、隣の釣り人のラインをひかっける可能性もあり、釣行よりも、私の使用しているルアー皆興味があるようだったので、ＦＭを紹介し、早めにこの日は釣行を終えてきた。もちろん釣果は無しですが、地道な宣伝と行動でラッキーソルトルアー市場を盛上げて行きたいと思います。

“Been Awhile…”
It’s been 3 months since I last went fishing at Newport Beach! The last time I was here it was in late May and there were no kelps and it was a great time for lure fishermen. However, during this time in the summer there are a lot of kelps which makes it much harder – you need to be extra careful when retrieving. This means a much less number of times in casting, which also means less chance of catching fishes! The reason for this is when you retrieve your lure all the way near your feet; it gets caught up in the kelp. And if it gets caught in a hectic manner, you need to stop retrieving and wait for the lure to float up on its own. Then you should be able to pull it up, but this creates loss in time. Last year, I remember getting my lures caught in the kelps a lot!! LOL
Anyhow, on this day the breeze transitioned to strong winds, so I stopped fishing along the jetty and changed location to a spot I’ve never been before! At this spot, there is usually a lot of people bait fishing and it’s also known to be a popular area. Winds don’t come by this area and it is a really good fishing spot, but it may be a bit of a small environment for lure fishing but I might as well give it a try. I didn’t have to worry about getting caught in the kelps here, but I had to worry about getting my line caught up with others next to me. People there were very interested in the lures I was using, so I introduced the FM to them and then decided to end my fishing after. I obviously didn’t get to catch any that day, but I did get to do a little bit of advertising. I will definitely like to continue to market the Lucky Craft soft lures!
