Important Rules & Etiquette for Fishing in Japan:

[Fishing Permits]
In Japan, local fishing cooperative associations manage their respective rivers. If you want to fish in a particular river, you must purchase a fishing permit from the association that manages that river.

There are two types of permits available: a "one-day permit" and an "annual permit."

However, purchasing an annual permit usually requires a Japanese residential address and a photo, making it difficult for short-term tourists to obtain. Therefore, overseas visitors should basically purchase a one-day permit. One-day permits are easily purchased at convenience stores or local bait shops.

[On-Stream Rules]
Furthermore, regarding the rules of stream fishing in Japan, the angler who arrives first at a spot has priority. Since Japanese rivers are quite narrow, once a person starts fishing a spot, it becomes difficult for others to fish there. If someone is already fishing where you want to fish, you will need to move a significant distance upstream (sometimes several kilometers) to start.

Additionally, in typical mountain streams (especially for trout fishing), it is a general rule to move upstream. If there is another angler upstream from you, it is against the rules to overtake them (cutting in front is prohibited).

(Note: In large main rivers, the rule may be to move downstream instead. Please observe local practices and other anglers.)
