I'm not a fisherman or an angler, but I'd like to start. I've been watching videos on Tenkara style fly fishing. I like the simplicity of gear and motion. I don't know which rod or line I need, but I'm looking to pick one up. Ping me if you have an extra
I would contact Paul at AHE.Originally Posted by dougalcorn
Let him know the types of streams, rivers, lakes you will be fishing and he will hook you up with the correct kit,
no hype no crap you can't use which will save you money in the long run.
That is what I did and I have no regrets.
Some small items pictures I already had.
That's good advice, thanks
You can also call Tenkarausa.com Daniel is the guy that brought tenakara to the USA. I have worked with him for years and he is a great guy. If you have any questions give them a call and they will be able to answer almost any question that you have..... in-reguards to tenkara
Paul at Fountainhead flyfishing is a wealth of knowledge too. His rods get great reviews, and will save you a ton. I just ordered a 12' Caddis fly from him an hour ago.
Wow, the pricing on fountainhead rods are priced quite low compared to the others. Makes it easier for me to get started
Same here. I thoroughly research, well, everything, and hos were far and away the best bang for your buck. He wont try to upsell you either, talked me down. Very friendly guy ti talk to.
Check out tenkarabum too, he recommends the caddis rod over at fountainhead for beginners, I got a knock-off on eBay, not sure how it will perform, we shall see!!
I would have a good look at tenkarabums website as well, wealth of knowledge to be a had there!
I've got a tenkara USA Ito rod I could let go with sock and tube excellent condition.
