Yes, it was also nice to catch the first one with a fly on a T-rod, while everyone else was using meat.

Has anyone else here gotten into Tenkara yet? I'm now using it where I used to go to my two weight. 5th year of drought, the rivers and creeks are low, Tenkara means sight casting to small fish , for the most part. And you can get a deep rod bend out of a 5 inch sunfish. We are also having some luck in using Tenkara to get new fishermen interested in the fly. The rods are a little steep, but there's no reel involved and lines go for $2 - $20. Very light and easy to cast. We (my local fly club) have a beginner's Tenkara outing scheduled for next weekend and we have 30 people signed up. We'll pair them up with experienced fishermen and get them rolling. Gonna have to put a few on regular rods part-time 'cause we don't have access to that many T-rods. Jack Austin -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
