Zako River - canyoning & fly fishing

No comments yet

Japan, a country with small land area. While so much of our nature on this planet has been touched and reshaped by humans, Zako River in Shiga Kogen is a valuable river on earth where only wild chars inhabit. It is the river that local predecessors have cared for. There is a number of attractive waterfalls on Zako River, some only known by the locals. In this film, two men takes their steps toward a waterfall to fly fish with a breathtaking view. Although its expedition can be rough at times, they will be rewarded with a delightful view at the destination. This film invites us to appreciate the beauty of Japanese nature, Sawakudari (canyoning), and fly fishing.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
