Coaching a Carp Landing for a new Tenkara Angler

This video shows a new tenkara angler landing a carp for the first time, heck a fish on tenkara about the 3rs time and a fish over 12" the first time. He is learning how to keep pressure on the fish. He has lost several other by following the fish with the rod when it run, as you would on a reel. Although he fly fishing regularly, he is used to rely on his reel to manage fish. Ultimately we land the fish!
After, we discuss the fishing triangle and how maintaing about 90 degrees is critical to being in control. Bending the rod deep, spreading the load and doing it evening is what gives you power in your rod.
