Customer Reviews
- “After experiencing Wakasagi fishing for myself, I finally understood why it’s rated so highly.”
- The staff were polite, energetic, and made sure we fully understood all the key points.
- After about an hour, they turned our freshly caught Wakasagi into tempura—and it was absolutely delicious!
- I finally got to fulfill my long-held dream of fishing for Wakasagi on a frozen lake!
- When my son wasn’t having any luck catching fish, we asked if we could move to a different spot and they happily agreed. They even let him try drilling a hole when he said he’d like to give it a shot.
- I read that some other companies charge extra for lessons or require you to bait your own hooks, so I’m really glad I chose this one!
