隠岐の鯛釣り
先週一週間は田舎（隠岐）に帰っていた。そうーどうしても「帰っていた」になるんだな・・。田舎を離れはや５０年になるが、田舎の人も小生の顔をみると、「かえらしゃんしたかの・・」と声を掛けてくれる。すると当然のように、「はい、帰りました」と返事する。
それが故郷なんだな・・・。
今回は割と天候に恵まれ、１週間のうち３日船釣りでた。２日間は蓮子鯛釣り、水深１００メートルのところで汐帆を流し、エビでタイを釣る。これが殆ど入れ食い状態。釣り糸を下ろし底につくかつかないかでググっとくる、一丁あがり。ところがここで上げてしまうと成果は一匹。ところがベテラン漁師は少なくとも２匹３匹にしてあげる。一匹で１００メートルあげるのと、２，３匹で１００メートルあげるとでは、成果は当然のことながら２倍３倍違ってくる。しかし、素人はそうはいかない。一匹かけて次を待つと、そのうちかけた１匹にも逃げられ、あげてみるとエサは全て取られて無いなどと言うのがザラにある。ここの駆け引きが難しいが、それでも２日間で１５０枚程のタイを釣り上げることができた。
後の一日は、ボッカ釣りに挑戦。雨模様で波も高かったことから、外海に出るのをあきらめ内海でながしたが、魚影は薄く、アカミズ１匹とボッカ２匹におわったが、それでも小生にとっては大満足。
I was back in the country (Oki) for a week last week. I guess I’m going to be “back home”… It’s been 50 years since I left the countryside, but people in the countryside still call out to me when they see my face, saying, “It’s over! Then, as a matter of course, he replies, “Yes, I left.
It’s home….
We had good weather this time and fished three days out of the week on a boat, two of which were spent fishing for sea bream and catching tie with shrimp in 100-meter-deep water on a tide sail. This is almost a state of eating. It’s a good way to catch a fish. However, if you raise it here, you will only get one fish. Veteran fishermen, however, will give you at least two or three fish. Naturally, the results will be two to three times as good as if you were to lift 100 meters with one fish or 100 meters with two or three fish. However, the layman is not like that. If you put one fish on the table and wait for the next one, one of the fish you put on the table will run away, and when you give it to him, he will say that all the bait is not taken. It is difficult to play the game here, but we still managed to catch about 150 ties in two days.
Later in the day, we tried bocca fishing. Because it was raining and the waves were high, I gave up going out to the open sea and floated in the inland sea, but the shade of fish was thin and I had only one redfish and two bokka.
