Yellowtail amberjack/Pelagics
If you are bringing rods. The small aircraft on these island routes cap checked baggage by length, and the cap depends on the type. ORC publishes a longest-side guide of 180 cm for the DHC-8-400 and 210 cm for the ATR42-600. Fishing tackle is also accepted only when it fits in the hold, so even within the guide it can be refused depending on the other baggage that day (contact the airline in advance if the three dimensions total more than 203 cm). If you are short on time, fly. If you want to be certain your long rods travel with you, take the ferry to Goto or Tsushima.
For Yellowtail amberjack Topwater casting and jigging are the mainstays.
