A third attempt. Beyond that lies the top spot—

As an O.S.P Pro Staff member, Koda Hayashi is a professional guide active on Lake Nojiri and Lake Biwa.

In 2024, in his first appearance at the "Basser Allstar Classic," he immediately achieved a 5th place finish.

The following year, 2025, he again achieved a 5th place finish at the tournament, which moved to Sawara.

And now, 2026 arrives.

In his third attempt, Hayashi aims for only one thing—victory.

Before that battle, Hayashi heads to the Lake Kasumigaura system in the height of summer.

He searches the water system in pursuit of bass lurking in the vast field, seeking clues to victory.

Supporting Hayashi is Tomoya Kitada, an O.S.P Pro Staff member who knows the Lake Kasumigaura system intimately.

These two pro staff members, armed with their respective experience and knowledge, will conquer Lake Kasumigaura in the height of summer.

Will Koda Hayashi finally reach the top on his third attempt?
