No gear needed! Squid fishing experience from the boat

Hop aboard a charter boat and target squid off the coast of Echizen!

During the summer season, fishing lights shine brightly offshore.
This program lets you enjoy about three hours of squid fishing.
This summer, why not challenge yourself with authentic boat fishing!
