Osaka Bay Fishing Charter!! Enjoy a private group fishing!! Hours are flexible.

Nozomu was great to deal with. We started fishing for octopus, then moved on to Horse Mackerel but they just weren’t biting on this day, however Nozomu suggested trawling off the airport and we ended up with a 94cm Kingfish which was great. Nozomu joined us for dinner at a local family restaurant where they prepared the kingfish and octopus for us. They served multiple dishes and it was very authentic. Great experience. Thanks again.

Absolutely cannot recommend Captain Nozomu highly enough! He saved our trip—and turned what could have been a huge disappointment into one of the most unforgettable experiences my son and I had in Japan. After being ghosted by another captain we had originally booked through this very site (paid in advance, no-show, no contact…), we were scrambling, heartbroken, and unsure if we’d get to fish at all in Osaka Bay. That’s when we found Captain Nozomu—and everything changed. Despite a language barrier, Captain Nozomu went out of his way to communicate clearly, kindly, and with genuine care. He welcomed us with a warm smile, top-tier professionalism, and the kind of joyful energy that instantly put my 10-year-old son at ease. We were fully outfitted with great gear, thoughtful instruction, and even snacks—and from the moment we stepped aboard, we felt like honored guests. While I’ve been offshore fishing for over 30 years, I was blown away by how skillfully Captain Nozomu handled everything. He made sure we were on the fish and gave us every chance to succeed. My son still hasn’t stopped talking about it. Captain Nozomu was patient, encouraging, and clearly an expert on the water. He made sure everything went smoothly and joyfully, which—given the situation we had come from—meant the world to us. If you are fishing in Osaka and want a reliable, generous, and incredibly skilled captain who truly cares about your experience, book with Captain Nozomu. You’ll leave with a smile, a full heart, and a memory that you’ll treasure forever. Thank you, Captain!

Fantastic fishing experience with Nozomu! We booked a 4 hour fishing trip with Nozomu where we targeted Sea Bass. Together my girlfriend and I caught 3 large Sea Bass and one smaller Bream. Nozomu was a fantastic and accommodating captain. He was quick to change spots if we weren't getting good bites, assisted with fishing gear, and provided good fishing tips. There was several times where we almost lost our lures to bad snags, but Nozomu was able to retrieve them each time. Nozomu was also very easy to work with when setting up our trip. Our first scheduled date was cancelled due to poor weather and Nozomu was flexible with rescheduling. I just wish my Japanese language skills were a bit stronger so I could have better exchanged fishing tips and stories with Nozomu. I would definitely recommend Nozomu to anyone looking to book fishing trip in the future.

Captain Yoshi was very casual, friendly, and helpful. We went fishing for sea bass and caught several, as well as some black sea bream. It was a great time!

Azimut 47Motor Yacht in Shanghai Shi, China

The owner of the yacht, Viktor, tried to be very accommodative of all my requests and was quite clear in his communications. I booked the yacht for my girlfriend’s birthday and proposed to her as a surprise in the deck when the lights at the bund were on. It was truly a memorable night for both of us. One suggestion is to book the decorations well ahead in time so that you can get a better supplier with good decoration.

I rented this boat to propose to my girlfriend (she said yes!). The experience was perfect. All staff were great, communication clear. The boat looked great with balloons and lights. We took a lovely cruise down the river past the best sites and returned very happy. Great experience
