Tenkara 101: Japanese Ultralight Fly Fishing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yq4wmRXq8_s

Tenkara is a fishing method that originated in Japan, and among fly-fishing styles that use artificial flies, it represents the most pure and minimalist approach.

In this “Tenkara 101” beginner’s guide, we introduce the fundamentals of this fixed-line fishing method that has been passed down in Japan for hundreds of years—covering basic techniques, a minimalist tackle setup, and the philosophy behind tenkara.

Whether you are completely new to tenkara, or searching for a lighter, simpler style that allows a more intuitive connection with mountain stream trout, this video will help you experience the beauty of tenkara’s simplicity and take the first step on your own tenkara journey.

Notice of Design Renewal for the Bamboo Tackle Spool

This larger-sized spool features an inner cushioning band that helps prevent line memory.
The central hole allows you to slide it onto your rod for convenient carry without removing it.

Simply hook your fly onto the metal fitting, wind the line around the spool, and secure it with the spool band.

Enjoy the rich texture and natural character of bamboo with this beautifully crafted tackle spool.

Because this product is made from natural materials and engraved by laser, slight variations in color and grain may occur.

This is the redesigned 2026 model.

Spool Diameter: 80 mm
Center Hole Diameter: 16 mm
Thickness: 11 mm
Weight: 35 g

🌿✨ Fly Fishing in Japan ✨🌿

We had the pleasure of guiding a guest all the way from Belgium into Japan’s beautiful mountain streams.
Crystal-clear water, lush green forests, and the joy of meeting a wild trout in its natural home.

“Thank you! Hope to see you again!” 🎣
