With over a thousnd nisai of various grades and varieties to choose from we were promised an exciting day's selection.
Ogata has a very different and fair way of selection.There are 5 graded ponds of koi to select from where the prices are stipulated and the price per koi reduced depending on the number you select.The dealers are divided into 2 groups where the first group selects from half of the pond and the secound from the balance of the koi.The koi are netted and brought up to the side of the pond making viewing and catching very easy.
The 5 different ponds-
