History and Origins

Fish caught everywhere in Wakayama Prefecture. Among other things, Iseshima Port of Takada, Japan, has developed a long history of fishing with the use of fishing nets, a fine fishing site where the sea and dark tides from the Bay of Osaka. The amount of water is 80 percent of the entire county. The catch from 1992 to 15 years has been the best in Japan, and the bridge from the Takeda River has been built as a memorial for the monument of the fish. The fishing boat leaves port around 3:00 a.m. The fish is so fast that when it is pulled up, it can be instantly frozen on the boat. At three o'clock in the afternoon, the ship comes home all at once, and as soon as it is sent to land, it will be taken to the racetrack. Because they follow small fish into the bay, local fishermen are also familiar fish that can be fished in Loua. Generally, it's an expensive fish, but locals call it "sitting" and it's a good dinner at home.
