The Greater Amberjack is the big, mean cousin of the amberjack family, and it is one of the best fights at Kaiji No Ri. Anglers call it the “reef donkey” for a reason: it is stubborn, powerful, and it holds tight to structure, so landing one is real work. It also pays like a proper … Read more
The Japanese Amberjack, better known as Yellowtail, is the fish that finally rewards casting a bucktail at Kaiji No Ri. It is a fast, aggressive schooling predator that you take by throwing a lure and ripping it back through the water, and it pays a solid mid-tier return for the effort. My Unique came in … Read more
The Striped Bonito is not a fish you set out to catch at Kaiji No Ri. It is a fish that finds you. It is a small, fast schooling member of the tuna family, and it will hammer the same Spanner Spoon you are throwing for Yellowfin Tuna. My best so far was a Unique … Read more
The Dogtooth Tuna is one of the best fights at Kaiji No Ri, and it is caught in a way nothing else on the map is: by casting a topwater popper near the reefs and working the surface. Despite the name it is not actually a tuna, but it hits like an apex predator and … Read more
The Bigfin Reef Squid is not a payday. My Trophy paid just 1,148 coins, the smallest return of anything I have caught for this site. So why write it up? Because it is a completely different style of fishing from everything else at Kaiji No Ri. This is light squid jigging with a spinning rod, … Read more
The Albacore is the easiest way to learn trolling at Kaiji No Ri. It runs on the exact same rig I use for Striped Marlin, it bites readily in the same open water, and it does not demand the patience the big billfish and tuna do. It will not make you rich, my Trophy paid … Read more
The Striped Marlin is the fish that makes trolling at Kaiji No Ri worth it. It is a surface hunting predator that jumps clear of the water when hooked, it runs on almost the same trolling rig as my Yellowfin Tuna, and it pays well. My Unique came in at 151.433 kg and a huge … Read more
This is the first trolling guide on the site, and the Yellowfin Tuna is the perfect fish to start with. Everything about it is different from the deep bottom fishing I do at Skårland Fjord. There is no sinker, no bait sitting on the seabed, no long wait in the dark. Instead you put lures … Read more
The Greenland Shark is the single most valuable fish I have pulled out of Skårland Fjord in coins. My Trophy went 521.933 kg and 392.9 cm, and it paid 177,206 coins along with 80,214 XP. That is more coin than even my Unique European Sea Sturgeon returned. It is also one of the hardest fish … Read more
The Atlantic Cod is probably the most iconic fish you can pull out of Skårland Fjord. It is the species the Norwegian Sea is famous for, it takes both bait and lures, and it fights with a bit more weight behind it than the Haddock that shares its water. I landed one at 11.017 kg … Read more
