SCENE.02

RGM SCENE.02 Downtown walk x Fishing

-A town where old and present intersect-

A town where you can still experience the Showa era even when the times have changed
This time, I touched on the new evolution while soaking in nostalgic.

We decided to go to a park in downtown Tokyo after a break during the rainy season when the sun was strong but the wind was pleasant in the shade. Being swayed by the bus from the station, get off at the bus stop near the park for about 10 minutes. In the hand of an old man who got off the bus together, a small cooler that doubles as a pole bag and a stool that contains the season. The foot is light, and the feeling of uplifting is exuding from the expression toward the park, and it resonates with me.

The Mizumoto Park that arrived here is the only Suigo Park in the 23 wards, and you can enjoy fishing at the Uchibori. The vast grounds are full of life, not only in the waterfront where small fish live, but also in the forest where many kinds of birds live.

As I walked from the bus stop to the park, I could see Uchibori. Many parasols have already been set up and it seems that many fishermen are fishing at their favorite places. I also walk around looking for fishing points. As I kept my eyes close to the waterside, some fry swarmed in a right and left direction. From time to time, I could see the shining belly of the fish glowing, and the tension gradually increased. It makes sense that more anglers get together earlier than in the early hours.

I found a point that seemed to be right for me, so I tied rig to "RGM spec.3" and put out a rod and watched the float while suppressing my motivation. I don't feel any hit, but I feel excited just as when I was a kid when I started fishing.

While the excitement had not cooled down, the float floated in small steps, albeit slightly. What is the true nature of the fish that pulls this float from the water? As you meditate, the float floats gradually into the water. I felt a sense of life when I put a little effort into the hand holding the rod. to fish! I was convinced that I raised the pole.

It's a shrimp.

Hooray! I am excited by the appearance of a palm-sized and unexpected size. This uplifting feeling has never changed. Again, the body naturally feeds the needles and gazes at the surface of the water. Thus the angler will forget about the time.

After that, he was absorbed in conversations with various small items such as tiger shrimp, but when he looked around, the old regulars began to eat lunch in the shade and on the bench.

Recommended for takeout. "I remember buying a coppé bread today, so I took it out of my bag and had lunch. When asked about "coppé bread," that bread was eaten by a wide range of generations for lunch. Such an image is strong, but recently, the image has changed and has become a hot topic as stores are opened at stations and department stores.

The "Yoshida Pan" coppe bread that I took out at Kameari this time is moist and fluffy, unlike the coppe bread that I thought the texture was as good as the flavor of butter. It makes you feel that the main character is bread, regardless of the flavor combination. When I visited the store and were worried about the number of menus that I had noticed, "Welcome to me," said a carefree smiling clerk. You can immediately understand why you are loved by the locals. So that's it. It's a store I would recommend to a friend.

When I chew on such a coppe bread by the water, I realize that I am sitting in a really gentle flow of time, filling my heart and taking a small deep breath. The color of the sunshine began to change by the time I had lunch and felt the nostalgia and newness while playing and playing the pole.

Time slip to the good old Showa

Feeling nostalgic, I wanted to visit Shibamata on my way home, and visited "Shibamata Taishakuten" and walked along the Sando Shopping Street.

Good old culture is carefully protected here, and you can't help but feel the overwhelming personality of the entire city. As you pass through the Sando Shopping Street, you will be taken to the old-fashioned candy shop "Shibamata Haikara Yokocho" so that you will be sucked into the nostalgic shop.

Inside the store, the sweets and toys that I bought as a child were lined up, and I was able to instantly slip through time. I went through the store wondering what to buy, and there were pinball machines lined up. While some people feel nostalgic, I think many people are new to the real machine and have never heard of it before.

It's a new round.

Tora-san Memorial Hall

When you leave the store and walk to the station, you can see a scene from the movie "Tora-san" in the square in the station square. Tourists getting off the train are taking pictures one after another. Here you can take a picture that is synonymous with Shibamata at a glance. For those who want to improve their knowledge of movies, we recommend visiting the Tora-san Memorial Museum, which is a short walk from Taishakuten. If I go there, I'm sure that the view of this town will change.

Some people feel nostalgic and feel fresh. There are also things that have evolved over time and continue to be loved. I was looking forward to seeing what kind of scene the small "RGM spec.3" in the bag will decorate.
