    I think it’s so funny that fly fisherman like to make fun of the tenkara but it really is just a fun different way to fish and had nothing to do with not being able to use a traditional fly fishing rod

  • @quinmatthew1
    @quinmatthew1 Місяць тому

    Am I understanding correctly that tenkara fishing involves a limited amount of line? And is there an advisable amount of line to start with?

    • @barry4fish19
      @barry4fish19 Місяць тому

      There’s not a limit per se, but if the line you are using is too long, then when you hook a fish, you will have to drag the fish in by pulling the line in with your hand - not much fun. A good rule of thumb is, the casting line plus tippet should be about 12-18” longer than your rod length. This allows you to hold the fish under tension at your feet and reach for it to release it. So, for a 12’ Tenkara rod, use a casting line that’s about 10’ long and use a tippet about 3’ long.

  • @majinkakashi20
    @majinkakashi20 2 місяці тому

    It would be called a Feral cat in the wild, but the way it came right up to you guys means it has had human contact. Most likely betrayed by those same humans and dropped off in the wild. seeing as how you said you guys drove 10 miles down that road it tells me its either been dropped off or accidentally left. . I doubt you guys fed or took it to a shelter right? That is absolutely heart breaking. It definitely was trying to be with you guys. Worst thing about that is, other than some low life abandoning it in the first place that is, the life expectancy of a cat IN THE wild is 2 to 3 years, where as , when kept indoors, well...the oldest domesticated HOUSE cat to have ever lived reached the age of 38... Poor little one didnt stand a chance, 2+ years since this vid was shot...well... may your spirit rest in peace dear little one. 😢

    This looks like it will be very effective where I fish. I'm a dedicated euro guy, this looks like a different way of doing it. Could you dry drop or use sighter markers if nymphing two nymphs? Any information is helpful.

    • @tenkararodco
      @tenkararodco 2 місяці тому

      Yes you definitely could use different sight markers if fishing two nymphs. Also one of the benefits of fishing such a long rod is how sensitive it is to detect fish so most of the time when tightline nymphing we don't use any markers.
