I arrived at the parking space for Saruwatari in Nonami about 6:30 a.m. There was a car already left there. Saruwatari had been already taken. My option for this morning was narrowed down to either giving up fishing and going home or going to Safuki-bana because not only Saruwatari but also other fishing spots had been already taken. I decided to try Safuki-bana. Fortunately, there was no car at the parking space for Safuki-bana, but it was almost certain that I would not be able to reach the fishing spot due to the swells. Anyway, after praying to the small jizo (a stone statue in the form of a Buddhist monk) by the parking space for my safe return, I started walking down the path toward Safuki-bana. As I had expected, the swells prevented me from going over the last cliff to reach Safuki-bana. So I started throwing my lures from one of nearby rocks. I kept throwing my lures from 7:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., but neither a Japanese sea bass nor a yellowtail amberjack responded to my lures.
（午前６時半頃、野波の猿渡の駐車場に着くと、すでに一台の車が残されていました。猿渡には既に先客がいるのです。猿渡だけでなく、他の釣り場もまた既に埋まっていたので、今朝の選択肢は、釣りを諦めて家に帰るか、あるいはサフキ鼻に行くかに絞られました。私はサフキ鼻を試すことにしました。幸い、サフキ鼻の駐車場には車がなかったものの、うねりが強すぎて釣り場にたどり着けないことは、ほぼ確実でした。でもともかく、駐車場の脇にある小さなお地蔵さんに無事の帰還を祈ってから、私はサフキ鼻に向かう道を歩き始めました。予想通り、うねりがあって最後の崖を越えられず、サフキ鼻にはたどり着けませんでした。そこで、近くの岩からルアーを投げ始めました。午前７時から９時半まで投げ続けましたが、スズキもヒラマサも反応しませんでした。）
