River fishing season opens in Chichibu

The fishing season is underway in one of the popular destinations for mountain stream fishing near Tokyo.

At 6AM on Monday, the first day of March, the fishing season was declared open in the Urayama River, which runs through the mountainous Chichibu region in Saitama prefecture, neighboring Tokyo.

Anglers, who had gathered from near and far, could be seen casting their lines.

The local fisheries cooperative released about 25,000 yamame trout and char fries in the river, enabling some anglers to catch 20 centimeter long yamame one after another.

The fishing season will end on September 30th.
