Aji, Japanese horse mackerel, has long time been one of the popular fishes for fishing in Tokyo-Bay area, where is surrounded by Tokyo, Yokohama and Chiba.

The wild jerk of Aji fish(the size varies from 20cm to 40cm) hooked entertains everyone from beginners to well experienced anglers. What makes good angler in Aji fishing is the skill to place the bait at a desired depth. (the technique is called Tana-Tori in Japanese).
 
Basically the desired depth to hung the bait is about 2m above the bottom. Seemingly it sounds simple, but the thing is more complicated than it sounds when you are in Tokyo bay where the tide is fast at some time and deep spots.
 
Aji is very popular fish for cooking in Japan. Not only we make them raw like Sushi or Sashimi, but also we cook Aji in various ways like grills, soup or fries.

They say in Japan there are 2 types of Aji, one is migratory, the other is less migratory and settles in some inner bays, where is rich and appropriate for predation.
There are some famous Aji brands all over Japan, they are all the less-migratory type Aji, looking fat and colored in gold, like the ones you can catch with us. That golden horse mackerel of Tokyo bay is well known for its rich taste.
Let us find them and catch them with your hand!
