Characteristics or Lake Biwa
Lake Biwa is world famous and the largest lake in Japan. Lake Biwa is also the place where the world record tying bass was caught weighing 22lbs 4oz (10.12kg) caught in July 2009.
Biwa is a very popular lake among anglers because at any given time on any given cast, the potential to catch a giant world class size largemouth bass is always there.
The average size of largemouth in Lake Biwa is 4 to 5lbs but fish over 10lbs are prevalent especially in the spring and winter.
Lake Biwa is close to Kyoto so many guests not only come for the fishing but also to take in all the sights Kyoto has to offer. Connect guide services also provides transportation to and from the lake as well as visits to tackle stores at no additional cost.
While fishing with us at Connect Guide Services, you can learn about and use the latest cutting edge Japanese fishing techniques. From finesse fishing to swimbaits you can learn about how Japanese anglers utilize these techniques.
This is all done while also ultilizing state of the art fish finders and electronics. Detailed equipment information is provided
