Wow! You really did catch a Giant Japanese Lake Monster! Congratulations!

[@TheHomelessFisherman]

Geoffrey this is my bit ok. You can’t just steal my bit.

[@archtx9]

I think that spot is in every Biwa video……great catch

[@Saps_bigbaits]

Love it when it comes together for another angler

[@randykast87]

What a magical looking place to fish. I'm jelly.

[@awwwataal709]

Man, I paid 36000 yen for a guided fishing on April 29, and caught only two good size bass and a ding in 6 hrs. I felt liked a ripped off because he only showed me sight fishing, on and on until I gave up. Lesson and learn. Beautiful lake though. Congrats on your catch!

[@bassketchum]

[@edwinro77]

[@13050621]

Was the supreme bag for fishing purposes or more like a personal item carrying ?

[@elsk1031]

ようこそ日本最大のフィールド琵琶湖へ🤗 ここにはおそらく世界最大のラージマウスバスが生息しています🐟

[@scottleggejr]

That tow rig behind you in the intro was wild compared to America.

[@cleavedspot]

So Sick

[@etiennevlok]

awesome catch! Signal has epic lures! I live in South Korea and we always struggle to get signal lures. DRT is pretty common now...but signal has some amazing stuff! congrats on a very special fish!

[@PhoenixPichner]

They do make some awesome lures! Thank you!

[@user-le6pm6ud6l]

NICE guy‼️

[@Phoenix-nl2ut]

Congrats

[@diegocaballero4142]

Why do some people who run baitcasters cast with their right hand and then switch the rod to their left hand to reel with the right, why not just get a reel with the crank on the left

[@BindeeVangFishing]

congrats! sick bro

[@PhoenixPichner]

Thanks Brotha!

[@BiscalalaWa]

🔥🔥

[@lukeslemmer]

Crazy

[@scottleggejr]

What were those structures you fished around? Are those for fish habitat?

[@muskybites505]

Congrats! Biwa giant. Check that one off…

[@scrubs0720]

おめでとうございます

[@21pickle]

Oh my gyat that's a biggun

[@Sabzilla]

Tank bro let’s goooo 🫡🔥

[@meyercamden]

Congrats dude. Living the dream.

[@PhoenixPichner]

Thank you! It was incredible

[@bighashgang1990]

What weight board weights r u using on the bottom?

[@Bassfishertv]

Hahah legendary spot😂

[@CB-is5xr]

Nice videos that I have watched so far. One thing though if you would ever find lures that you don't want please don't throw them away. I clean up lures and tackle to give away to kids in the spring every year to try and get more of them into our sport. Let me know if you would happen to find a bunch. Maybe we could work out how to get them to me to giveaway or maybe start doing it yourself.

[@chasechristopherson9940]

Dude what's your rod and reel set up

[@frederykdicaire907]

Mannn! Awesome video. Out of curiosity what rod ar you fishing with?

[@piwero]

[@Zanzabar5]

Net! Oh wait. Don't get it just in case I don't have one.

[@bobbycampbell1430]

Dude! I watched sooooo many people fishing in Japan. You’re the first one I’ve seen catch one. And a good one at that.

[@PhoenixPichner]

Haha sometimes I get lucky!

[@aarongreen9013]

How long did it take Jeff to get that fluent in Japanese?

[@PhoenixPichner]

A couple days

[@thetravelingmongo]

Ain’t not way this video ended so fast😭

[@PhoenixPichner]

I wish we caught more so it was longer! We will try harder next time

[@thetravelingmongo]

@@PhoenixPichner start pulling out the wacky senko🤣 or Geoff’s favorite bug baits

[@jjfv702]

Shouldve made the intro longer

[@PhoenixPichner]

Noted!

[@dixie3087]

What’s the deal with the strange structure yall are fishing? Almost looks like they were put there to act as structure and nothing else

[@darenhayes7506]

Sick but keep fish healthy in water between photos and weight...it swam away that's all that matters!!! Nice

[@bootymuncher3591]

This deserves a sub ! 👏🏿👏🏿

[@PhoenixPichner]

I appreciate that!
