Hi, Josh's dad here. I am not expert in Japanese trout (I studied Arripis trutta, or "kahawai" or "Australian salmon" for my MSc.) BUT ... There are several native trout in Japan. In Gifu, it appears the main species are Yamame (Oncorhynchus masou masou - which I guess actually puts it closer to salmon end of the trout / salmon spectrum) and Iwana (Salvelinus leucomaenis - which would be a type of char). HOWEVER... I am not sure I've picked up all of the local nuances for Japanese trout. There are a couple of others there, and I'd like to see a really clear photo of one to make a better ID. There are also introduced rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss - from North America - again a more "salmony" trout) and brown (Salmo trutta - from Europe), and from what I could see in the video, I am wondering if the fish you saw were brown trout. All four species, and probably others, appear to be in Gifu. Also... you quit your job?!? What about your visa? What about the salamanders? Who will care for them now? How do you eat? How will you pay the electricity bills? WHERE ARE MY GRAND BABIES?!?!?
This channel deserves much more subscribers! Loved all the cinematic touch and documentary level of this video. Really top edit. New subscriber here. Keep it on 🙌
@@InakaAdventure I always found interesting and very beautiful the camping zones around Mt. Fuji. Specially in spring and fall. Would be cool a video about that 🤙
Totally right?? Excellent content, I stumbled upon the channel a while ago and subscribed but only just realised he’s got less than 10k - more deserved for sure!!
@@InakaAdventure Glad you got out of there. From what I heard and read about those black companies, they exploit their employees and even resort to holding onto their passports and visas, especially on South East Asian employees.
I never had to deal with anything that extreme, but they do treat people from different countries differently. For example I had a standard contract, but employees from countries like south America had to sign these really weird contracts taking liability for the strangest things, these weren't even legal in Japanese law, when I heard about these its actually when I knew it was time to get out of there fast
Just randomly found your channel and I'm loving it!! So many nice tips about what to see in Japan and your videos are so entertaining as well! Nice job, you just got a new subscriber
Heading to Japan in two weeks and thanks to this video I’m staying a couple of days in Gujo and I couldn’t be more excited. Seems like a beautiful and tranquil place, and a little bit off the beaten track. Thanks for the recommendation!!!
Awesome! Let me know how it goes, might be good to visit Gujo then stay in Gero Onsen that night so you can relax in the hot springs after exploring the two towns
Haha, the Too much Vulcano reference was a nice one :D I've been putting off my trip to Japan since March 2020. Hopefully March 2023 will work out.... While I wait, I'll probably spend some time watching your videos. Good job! 🙌
I used to.live in Nagoya for 2 years, 14years ago, and never knew this town was there. I'm hoping to go back to Japan next year, hopefully I'll have time to visit this place when I do. Thanks for the video.
I'm going to Japan next month and was reaallyy keen on going to Gujo Hachiman, however my friends who live in Japan said that it's probably not for first-timer as it's a bit harder to reach by public transportation. Hopefully, on my next trip to Japan I'll be able to visit this place and other hidden gems, small beautiful cities like this! Thank you for the video :)
Its not really hard to reach via public transport, but its about 3 hours away from Kyoto. If you were spending more time in Gifu though such as to see cormorant fishing, monet pond, Takayama or Shirakawago then its much easier to reach

Japan is probably the only country in the world where the idiom "use like hot and cold water (YU-MIZU NO GOTOKU)" is used as a metaphor for wasteful spending. This is because the idiom was created on the premise that water is abundant, almost free, and inexhaustible as a matter of course. Those born in arid, water-scarce regions or continents would not be able to imagine the abundant water situation that is taken for granted here in the Japanese archipelago. The Japanese archipelago, which began as a volcanically active region, is composed of steep mountains in the center of the country, and the large amount of rain that falls on the mountains permeates the ground surface and produces large amounts of clear water as springs on the plains at the foot of the mountains. This is truly a huge natural water filtration system created by Mother Nature. In Japan, since ancient times tens of thousands of years ago, clean water has naturally passed through this natural filtration system and flowed to the plains, where it became abundant groundwater, drinking water, and rivers that supplied plants and animals and kept the plains moist. This is an unusual structure of water purification and supply unique to a volcanic island nation. This is the reason why there is clean water in Japan and why humans have been living here since the prehistoric Neolithic Age, some 30,000 years ago. Japanese people are under the illusion that this is a natural environment that can be found anywhere, but it is the difference between the natural environment of an island nation and that of other continents. Surrounded by the sea on all four sides, geographically isolated from Eurasia continent in the Pacific Ocean this island nation has a warm and humid climate and is blessed with abundant clear water resources, a variety of plants, and fishery resources. Since ancient times, people have lived peacefully with nature. They have respected harmony, lived peacefully in groups, and overcome many severe natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and typhoons, with each other in groups based on their wisdom and have enjoyed the blessings of nature by cooperating. Japan's original country name NIPPON means "country under the sun," but the traditional name of the country when the capital was in Nara was YAMATO (WA).Yamato means "land of great harmony between people and nature. The history of Japan is very old, about 2,000 years since the Emperor's reign, but humans began to live in villages and communities in this island nation about 14,000 years ago, during “the Jomon pottery” culture. (That's 30,000 years ago, if you count the Neolithic period.) The name of the ancient Japanese nation of "YAMATO" or "WA" reflects the wishes and realities of the people to live and to survive in this natural environment of the island nation that differs from that of the Eurasia continent. And in the names of the ancient countries, the essence and secrets of Japanese Cultures are hidden.
@@InakaAdventure Thanks for the reply. the idiom "like hot and cold water (YU-MIZU NO GOTOKU)" is a metaphor they use when describing someone who wastes money or things. The assumption is that water is free or cheap, which is everywhere in abundance. Japan's environment is humid and warm, so if left unchecked, harmful bacteria can easily multiply and things can easily corrode. However, since they are surrounded by abundant water, they have learned and passed down from ancient times to take a bath every day and wipe and clean their houses frequently to keep them clean. This concept of "KIYOME(Keep Clean)" has prevented corrosion and pollution.
Watching this video brought back fond memories of my two trips to Gifu-ken, namely Hida Takayama,Shin-Hotaka, Hida Furukawa, and Gero. If it hadn't been for the pandemic, I'd have gone a third and fourth time. どうもありがとうございました。
@@InakaAdventure Not the first for me as Tokyo was the first. However, it was in Hida Takayama that I firstly experienced 無心while meditating next to that small pond at Hokke-ji (Hokke temple). So that small town high up in the Hida mountains is special to me.
First time visited your channel and the first 5 second clips forced me to subscribe❤ Your video making style is just like what I thought I would ever make😅
@@InakaAdventure Yeah... unfortunately I don't feel like flying back to NL from SE Asia and then later at some point back to Japan. Figured I'd visit it now while I'm close. Everyone talking about this heat makes me warry 😅
I was there I think in may and it was very nice. Hardly any tourists from overseas there. Much to look at, nice weather and a small festival was also there. Everything I love. Is definitely one of my 5 favorite places in japan.
I just found the channel. Absolutely loving it thus far. Keep up the great work! Also, I love the nod to Chris Broad (oh, no... now I am speaking in rhyme... anybody want a peanut?).
@@InakaAdventure Hahaha That was a reference to a line from Andre the Giant in the film "The Princess Bride." They get into this series of rhymes and it begins to drive one of the other characters crazy. So, I just threw that in because I started rhyming at the end. Haha I have been planning a trip to Japan with a group for a few years now (it was derailed by Covid) and we are looking at a bit of a whirlwind tour. We are looking to start in Tokyo for a few days, then to Kyoto for a few days, then Osaka for a few days, then over to Himeji Castle on our way to Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and from there either back over to Tokyo for the remainder or looping up to Kanazawa/Nagano and then back down to Tokyo to fly out. We are definitely going to make great use of the JR Rail Passes. Haha I have the feeling that this trip will only make us want the explore the country further (from Hokkaido to Okinawa would be a fun trip), but I am interested in seeing a wide variety of the cultural offerings of Japan.
It was the Amidaga falls, there are tonnes of great waterfalls in Gifu though so take a look around and see what you can find. The water around Seki and the Monet Pond are really beautiful too (can see them in this video th-cam.com/video/a-CAWhyKjnE/w-d-xo.html )
ooooh I want to go there D: not like i can i don't think..what with no car and all that....but it looked so great! I hope you'll be ok with quitting your job its great you can get out some I hope you'll be fine :) fingers crossed it will work out
I think I differentiate the trout by "tastier" and "not as tasty". I went to a very small ryokan in the middle of nowhere, Shikoku (the official name of the tiny town is Kamikatsu) because I'd met some beer brewers from Kamikatsu back here in Portland, OR. Dinner was little ayu with blue spots that were quite nice. Almost nothing to do up there but visit the taproom and the brewery. Oh the places I go just to drink beer.
Can you actually tell the difference between brown trout and rainbow trout? They all taste the same to me, but I legendarily bad taste, just look at the movies I watch
Was "Too Much Volcano!" actually on the raido or was that in post? Just found your videos and im enjoying them and taking notes for my trip in 2023. Thank you
Really enjoyed your videos, lots of useful tips and very grateful for the video photography. Just one thing, as a speaker of Japanese, I urge you to work on your pronunciation a little more. 😊 I will find these videos extremely useful, planning a trip in a few months. Thank you !!!! awesome work.

I think from Kyoto to Gujo-Hachiman the detour would be 4 hours each way. So unless you are spending a few days in Gifu or you're traveling past the area (such as from going towards Tokyo) I think the time on the trains might not be worth it
Gujo hachiman station is not a JR station, but it can be accessed by train. Ive always driven there, but by public transport you can take a Bus from Nagoya (2000 Yen 1 way, 90minutes) or train from Mino-Ota station (1380 Yen 1 way, 80 minutes) unfortunately some of the more beautiful old towns are very out of the way.
@@InakaAdventure Thanks For the info! We are going to be in Japan For 14 Days And we saw this and would like to take a day to go check this out. I guess we try to plan it out.
Gujo? Its the Towns name, if you go there you will find everything very quickly, its a small town. Is there something in particular in this video you were looking for?
Josh! Great, now my must visit places just got longer... just stop it already- get a nice quiet job and stay home... no more wonderful videos about amazing places, my wallet can't bear the strain, as I also don't have a job!

There are a couple of others there, and I'd like to see a really clear photo of one to make a better ID.
There are also introduced rainbow (Oncorhynchus mykiss - from North America - again a more "salmony" trout) and brown (Salmo trutta - from Europe), and from what I could see in the video, I am wondering if the fish you saw were brown trout. All four species, and probably others, appear to be in Gifu.
Also... you quit your job?!? What about your visa? What about the salamanders? Who will care for them now? How do you eat? How will you pay the electricity bills?
WHERE ARE MY GRAND BABIES?!?!?

Believe it was the Amidaga Falls in Gifu
@@InakaAdventure thanks!!
Hi, this looks really beautiful. I will visit Kyoto in April with two young children. Is it worth to make a side trip here? Thanks
I think from Kyoto to Gujo-Hachiman the detour would be 4 hours each way. So unless you are spending a few days in Gifu or you're traveling past the area (such as from going towards Tokyo) I think the time on the trains might not be worth it
Are there any car rental service in Gujo Hachiman? Would like to visit the Amidaga Falls from there if I visit Gujo Hachiman
Im not sure about Gujo itself, but you could stay in Gifu City and rent a car from there
Can you get to this town using your JR rail pass? I go to Japan in late March
Gujo hachiman station is not a JR station, but it can be accessed by train. Ive always driven there, but by public transport you can take a Bus from Nagoya (2000 Yen 1 way, 90minutes) or train from Mino-Ota station (1380 Yen 1 way, 80 minutes) unfortunately some of the more beautiful old towns are very out of the way.
