I have been all 3 times for koi. Fall is best. The koi look better, more selection overall, more excitement, the very reason for going for me is koi.... No Question the January time is great for the show, but the koi didnt look as good in the greenhouses after a couple months..Except in Isawa. They always seem to look great there. But I am biased. April was "ok", but not as exciting. Didnt find many good bigger koi than Nisai. I should say their skin didnt look as good to me. Fall by far.

Ray and JR have a point about sightseeing. I do a sightseeing side trip every time for culture and scenery. Mandatory, but you can do that anytime fall, winter or spring..

My opinions are my best interpretation of my experiences. They are not set in stone as I intend to always be a student of life. And Koi.
