Penjelasan Perbedaan Genryu, Keiryu, Honryu and Seiryu

Ada penjelasan menarik terkait Japanese Mountain Stream Fishing
by Keiichi Okushi

I sometimes received questions from my foreign friends “What is the difference between Genryu and Keiryu? , “What is Seiryu?”, “Which part of river is Honryu?”

As you know all the words express river but definitions of some of those words are quite difficult to explain. Even some Japanese people do not understand well. Anyway, I will explain those words briefly today.

To talk about rivers in Japan, you should know that Japan has small land in comparison with continental nations, and we have many mountains in this small land. So in many cases, Japanese rivers flow through the steep gradient and have very rapid currents, and the sources of the rivers are located in the mountains at high elevations.

Basically, When we Japanese people express the constitution of a river, we divide the river as Joryu (Upper part of the river), Churyu (Middle part of the river), and Karyu (Lower part of the river).

Firstly, Keiryu (Mountain stream) is generally consistent with Joryu (the upper part of the river). Keiryu is written by 2 Kanji letters, and First letter “Kei” Means Valley, and the second letter “Ryu” means stream or current. Keiryu by Kanji letters means the stream in the valley or stream in the mountains. So Keiryu is the stream located in the mountain area, which has fast current and typically runs through valleys and big rocks. When we Japanese fishers say Keiryu, it means the stream we can fish iwana or yamame. Keiryu-zuri (Keiryu Fishing) is the fishing for iwana and yamame.

To say briefly, Genryu is the upper part of Keiryu. “Gen” in Kanji letters means source. So Genryu in Kanji letters means the stream near the source. Genryu is the most upper part of the river high up in the mountains, which has very rapid current, and runs through many giant rocks, waterfalls and gorges. The image of Genryu for anglers is the stream in the deep mountains and there are no car roads or houses, and we can only approach there on foot.

In my fishing field Tohoku, when we say Genryu fishing, it means fishing for Iwana.

Next is Honryu. Basically, Honryu means main stream or main river. Honryu is the biggest main river in one riverine system. It does not mean one part of the river, but when we fishers say honryu, there is another meaning. Sometimes Honryu means just big stream. My image of Honryu in this case is between lower part of Joryu and upper part of Churyu. We say honryu-zuri (Honryu fishing) then it means the bait fishing for big yamame in this part of the river. Sometimes it does not matter if the river is not the main river or not.

Also Seiryu does not mean one part of the river basically. Originally Seiryu means the river which has very clear water, but again for fishers Seiryu sounds like from lower part of Joryu to Churyu part where we can fish ayu or oikawa.

There are a lot of tributaries to the mainstream. Of course, we can divide those tributaries in Joryu, Churyu and Karyu, and we can say Genryu and Keiryu to those streams.

I would like to add one more word. We fishers often say Sato-gawa. It means village stream. Normally it is the lower part of Keiryu and the stream runs through mountain villages and rice paddies. This part of the river is also good for fishing iwana (depending on places) and yamame. I think this Satogawa is also part of Keiryu (Lower part).

Normally for us Japanese anglers, Tenkara fishing field is in Genryu and Keiryu mainly and sometimes in Honryu.

In the last place, when we say Genryu-zuri (Genryu fishing) or Keiryu-zuri (keiryu fishing) the method of fishing does not matter, it includes bait fishing, tenkara fishing, fly fishing and lure fishing.

I think my explanations are not enough but I hope this posting will help you a little.

PERINGATAN!
Usahakan untuk selalu Catch & Release, atau setidaknya batasi jumlah ikan yang ada bawa pulang. Kalo anda hobby mancing dan sampai membaca blog ini sampai selesai. Saya yakin anda adalah orang yang berpendidikan. Salim, biar enggak salah paham. 🙏

Joran Keiryu, Tegek Keiryu

Joran yang dipakai untuk mancing teknik Keiryu adalah TEGEK / pole rod.

Sama seperti yang sudah biasa kita mancing di Indonesia. Hanya saja tidak dikolong dan tidak pakai reel. Isitlahnya TEGEK CUTIT (Jawa-). Jadi rangkaian senar pancing Keiryu diikat langsung diujung tegek. Untuk lihat detail bagaimana itu rangkaian Keiryu klik disini.

Tidak ada patokan khusus berapa panjang joran yang dipakai, disesuaikan saja dengan spot mancingnya. Di negara asalnya penulis bisa menemukan joran dengan panjang 2 - 9 meteran yang didesain untuk mancing dengan teknik Keiryu. Saat ini penulis biasa menggunakan joran dengan panjang 5 - 7 meter. Untuk spot yang sempit, joran Tenkara panjang 3 - 4 meter adalah pilihan terbaik. Satu joran bisa untuk 2 teknik, Tenkara & tetap nyaman dipakai Keiryu.

Penulis menggunakan joran panjang 5.5 meter.

Spesifikasi joran yang dibutuhkan adalah 1) Ringan, 2) Sensitif, 3) Panjang cukup, 4) Balance.

Saat ini banyak sekali merk tegek yang ada di pasaran, tetapi secara pribadi penulis hanya akan membahas tegek-tegek Jepang. Sebut saja merk-merk top berikut: Shimano, Daiwa, NFT, Suntec, Nissin, Gamakatsu. Merk-merek tersebut berlomba-lomba menciptakan tegek dengan spesifikasi yang ringan namun tetap kuat dengan ujung yang sensitif terhadap gigitan ikan. Shimano memilik berbagai teknologi yang disematkan di tip sectionnya ada Razor Tip, Vivid Top, Top Stop dan lain-lain.

Untuk menambah sensitivas nya seri-seri tinggi Shimano tidak lagi menggunakan lilian untuk mengaitkan senar tapi menggunakan stainless steel rotating"super feel" top:

Ujung tegek bukan tali lilian melainkan stainless steel.

Meskipun bobot joran berperan penting dalam kenyamanan memancing tetapi yang tidak kalah pentingnya adalah handlingnya. Ada tegek yang saat ditimbang dengan kondisi pancing tetutup (dead weight) bobotnya cukup berat tapi saat digunakan untuk memancing tidak mudah terasa lelah. Ini berhubungan dengan desain grip dan distribusi beban dari tegek tersebut. Dan saat cast, tegek premium juga punya feel yang lebih nyaman, ini kaitannya dengan swing weight.
