Tenkara is a traditional Japanese method of fly fishing that uses a simple, telescoping rod without a reel. Here are some key points about Tenkara rods:
-
Design : Tenkara rods are long, light and flexible, usually between 10 and 15 feet (3 to 4.5 meters) long when unfurled. They are telescopic, which makes them easy to transport and store.
-
No reel : Unlike traditional fly fishing rods, no reel is used. Instead, the line is directly attached to the rod tip, making the technique simple and effective, especially for fishing in small to medium-sized bodies of water.
-
Fishing : Tenkara is particularly effective for fishing for trout in small streams and creeks. The technique is focused on precision casting and subtle presentation of the fly, often at short distances.
-
Flies : Tenkara often uses simple flies, but the technique is flexible and can be adapted to different types of flies and fishing waters.
Tenkara rods offer a minimalist and traditional fly fishing experience that is easy to learn and ideal for anglers who appreciate simplicity and efficiency.
