The gathering is at 4:30 AM. Is there any way to “gather everyone together” to transport the comrades carrying their rods and coolers to the fishing port in Uehara?
For boat fishing in Oarai and Kasuura, even at midnight, we compare the option of a private jumbo taxi that can carry both a long rod and a large cooler with other transportation options.
It’s still dark at 3 a.m., and the front door. A large cooler filled with cold storage material, a 2-meter-long rod case, and a tackle box in a life jacket. How are we supposed to transport this for 4-6 people to the port in Umihara—-that’s the more troubling part of the day of fishing for fish. In this article, I’ll use the example of fishing from the Umihara (Oharakubo, Kasuura) area to honestly compare the means of transportation to the port, and why it’s important to have a group of people fishing from the port.charter jumbo cabWe will arrange whether it fits. If the pickup location is outside Chiba Prefecture, we can arrange door-to-door pickup from Tokyo or Saitama.
Boat fishing requires you to be at the pier at 4:30 AM, but actually the "distance to the pier" is the biggest challenge.
The passenger boats from Uehara are early in the morning. For example, the squid and anchovy boats from Oarai and Kasuura usually gather at around 4:30 to 5:30 AM, depart around 5 AM, and start fishing as soon as it gets dark at 5 AM. It is not uncommon for boat companies to have schedules where the boats leave from places like Saitama City or the Tokyo 23 wards and arrive at Isumi (Osmi) in approximately 80 to 100 km and 1 and a half to two hours by highway. If you calculate it backwards, you will be leaving home around 2 to 3 AM.
In this time of day, the following is a typical situation where a group of anglers actually come into conflict.
Waiting for the first train won't be enough time.
Trains and buses do not operate late at night or early in the morning. Waiting for the first train will mean you won’t make the meeting time, and in the end, someone will have to drop you off.
The luggage doesn't fit in a "normal car".
Rod cases over 2 meters long, large coolers of about 40 liters, plus tackle boxes and clothing. These cannot be packed into a typical sedan or small taxi, and it often ends up with the luggage being carried on your knees and crammed tightly together.
The driver is already tired before they start fishing.
If one person drives the entire group at night, they will exhaust their energy before the actual fishing begins. Dividing the car into two means that the group will be scattered and they won’t be able to hold a strategy meeting along the way.
Here's the point:The problem with fishing with a boat isn’t just where to fish.Moving at night; large quantities of long-length luggage; everyone having to gather togetherThis combination of three factors becomes the most realistic hurdle on the day.
Let's honestly compare the transportation methods to get to the port.
Every method has its advantages. Not to be put down, but let’s list the disadvantages of this type of fishing flat out:
| Means of transportation | Late at night or early in the morning | Loading of poles and coolers | How all the members spend their time | The burden of driving |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Train + Bus | In principle, it is practically unavailable before the first train arrives. | Long and large items are difficult to carry around. | It is easy to get disconnected during a transfer | None |
| I ride in two cars with my own car. | We can handle it | If you increase the number of plates, you can stack them | Different for each car | Two drivers were driving at night |
| General taxi (small size) | Depending on the number of units and the time of day | Long rods and large coolers are difficult to fit | Share rides with multiple people | None |
| charter jumbo cab | Door-to-door with a time schedule | Stow up to 9 pieces of luggage in the luggage compartment | All on board for a nap and operational meeting | The professional driver drives; everyone can take a break |
When arranged in this way, it becomes clear that charter services are well suited for situations where there is a large amount of luggage, a special time of day, or a group of people. Conversely, if you are just going to go fishing on a nearby riverbank with just one or two people, a regular taxi or train might be sufficient.
Therefore, the charter jumbo taxi is chosen for the boat fishing group.
Let’s apply the “common inconvenience” mentioned earlier to each of Jumbo Taxi’s features one by one.
We pick you up even at midnight or early morning based on your schedule
You don't have to wait for the first train. Even in the early morning hours between 2 and 3 a.m., we will arrive at your home or the gathering place of your friends at the designated time and take you straight to the port.
Long rods and large coolers are also placed in the cargo hold.
With a HiAce that can carry up to 9 people, you can load two-meter-class rod cases and 40L-class coolers for the entire group at once. This frees you from having to carry them on your knees.
Everyone rides along, so there's time for naps and operational meetings too
Everyone sits together without splitting up. You can take a nap along the way, or discuss points and tactics to get the conversation going.
Leave the driving to the professionals
No matter how tired you are after a fishing trip, you don't have to worry about driving back home. You can return home while still basking in the afterglow of your catch.
Guidelines unique to Ueno:In Osumi City, the squid season is from October to May the following year. The best fishing spots are at depths of 15 to 20 meters. Fishing lodges require you to bring your own cooler to hold the fish. Some lodges also offer ice service. This type of fishing requires certain conditions to be met, such as early morning departures, a large amount of luggage, and the port being far from public transportation. This type of fishing is especially popular when conditions such as “early morning departures,” “a large amount of luggage,” and “the port being far from public transportation” are met. *The departure time, season, and equipment vary depending on the fishing lodge, so please confirm with them when making a reservation.
The more people there are, the lighter it becomes per person.
Jumbo taxi is a concept where you rent one car and share the cost with other passengers. Since there are no additional fees or late-night or early-morning surcharges depending on the model, it’s less of a burden per person to ride with 6 people than with 4 people, and with 8 people than with 6 people. The exact price varies depending on the number of passengers, the pickup location, and the distance to the port, so please contact us for more information.Price guide pageIn addition to that,web formPlease confirm the quote with them.
Recommended for this type of group (also honest if it’s not the right fit)
4 to 9 fishing companions
The company, the fishing club in the circle, and the friends from college. If you have a group of people who can get along well with just one person, that’s perfect.
Fishing with family and children
Even for groups with children or seniors, door-to-door transfers without changing trains are reassuring.
Trips and overnight fishing
We can flexibly accommodate even full-fledged fishing trips that involve spending a night at the outer harbor or plans that involve visiting multiple ports.
On the other hand, if you only want to go to nearby places alone or with a partner and you want to keep your luggage to a minimum, you don't need to choose a private car rental out of necessity.When the number of people and luggage are manageable and the time is specialChartered jumbo taxis become a reasonable option. Which one would be closest to your next fishing trip?

summary
Success in fishing doesn’t just depend on choosing the right spot. It also requires a combination of factors such as starting at midnight, transporting a rod that’s over 2 meters long and a large cooler, and having everyone come together—these are the strengths of charter jumbo taxis. For fishing spots like Uehara and Oarai, where the port is separated from public transportation due to early morning departures, the value becomes even greater. Why not take a light stroll from the port the next time you go fishing?
