Chasing Amago Trout on a Stream-Fishing Camping Tour — Cub Cub Diaries
PHOTOAUTOBY↗ View original

With another scorching summer expected, camping and fishing at the coast will be tough this year — so head for the mountains instead. Episode 379 of Hiroshi Wakabayashi's serial 'Super Cub Cub Diaries' (Autoby) follows a camping tour spent fishing for amago (river trout) in a mountain stream. As a prelude to summer stream fishing, it's a leisurely tale of heading into the mountains on a Cub in search of cool relief.

Stream fishing, camping, and a Cub — there's no better summer combination. Heading up into the mountains to escape the heat is a great idea. Unfolding a map at a roadside station and casting a line by the river are both part of the touring experience. A trip includes what you do once you get there. I strongly admire a day with this much room to breathe.

Loading all your camping gear on a Cub, wouldn't something like the Serow be easier honestly?

The Cub actually has more carrying capacity, since you can fit a rear box on it.

Escaping to the mountains for some cool air seems like the right call, this year's heat is no joke.

They say mountains over the beach, but loading gear on a Cub on mountain roads sounds tough.

Is amago different from yamame trout? Don't know much about stream fishing so I'm curious.

They look similar, but the markings and habitat are slightly different, my impression is amago are more common in western Japan.

379 installments, how long has this series been running. Hope Wakabayashi-san stays healthy for a long time.

A camp tour on a Cub hunting for amago, that's the ideal day off right there.
