Ichigaya Fish Center

Ichigaya Fish Center is an urban fishing facility in Ichigaya-Tamachi featuring multiple pools stocked with koi and rainbow trout, offering year-round fishing opportunities in central Tokyo. The facility maintains different pool sizes and fish species to accommodate visitors of varying skill levels.

The facility emerged as one of Tokyo's earliest urban fishing venues, enabling city residents to continue traditional fishing practices within an urban setting. It developed in response to growing demand for recreational activities in the rapidly expanding metropolis.

The center blends Japanese fishing tradition with modern city life, allowing visitors to experience activities like goldfish scooping alongside standard fishing methods.

Visitors can rent complete fishing equipment sets on site, with different options available for adults, students, and children of various ages. It is best to arrive early to secure preferred spots, especially during weekends and holidays.

The facility sits directly adjacent to the train platform of Ichigaya Station, creating an unusual contrast between urban transit infrastructure and relaxing recreational fishing. Anglers can hear trains passing by in one moment and experience peaceful surroundings moments later.
