Meanings of Koi Fish Tattoos
Legend has it that the exceptionally strong koi will be able to swim upstream and leap the waterfalls, and will be rewarded by being transformed into a dragon at the end of the journey. The koi boldly ascend the waterfall, and if caught, they bravely face their doom on the cutting block, like samurai. The Koi has long been regarded as a symbol of perseverance and strength in the tattoo community...a symbol honoring a long and difficult path toward a lifelong goal.
