The "Gosan River" is a major field for shore bass fishing in the Chubu region. It features well-maintained banks, good footing, and a dense population of bass. Free parking is also available around the fishing area, making access by car excellent. It is also a place of relaxation for anglers, with many people visiting from early morning even on weekdays. ©TV Osaka In late May, two bass fishermen visited this popular spot. Kyosuke Umeda, a resident of Fukuoka, makes his first appearance on the program. His nickname is "Umekyo." He is an expert bass angler whose home ground is the major field "Onga River" in Kyushu.

He is a young angler whose home grounds are the Gosan River and Oe River. Nakagawa ©TV Osaka Nakagawa, who is familiar with the Gosan River, said, "At this time of year in the Gosan River, not only the number but also the size improves. You can catch bass over 40 cm, and some around 50 cm class," raising expectations. On the other hand, Umeda, who hasn't fished in the Gosan River for a while, seemed a little anxious, saying, "I came here about 5 years ago, but I don't have many good memories..."

First, the two carefully searched the bank with worm-type lures. However, there was no reaction. Fro
