Here’s your moment of zen from Lake Biwa in Japan to carry you into the weekend. This is Okishima, the only inhabited lake island in Japan. Located about 2 km off the eastern shore of Lake Biwa, the lineage of many of its residents trace back to samurai refugees in the 12th century. There are approximately 300 residents and fishing is a key element of the island's history and culture. #infisherman #lakebiwa #japan | In-Fisherman
