How to replace the Tenkara Rod Lillian String

Need to replace lillian on your tenkara? How the heck did the lillian get cut or wear out??? Who knows. But, thanks to the very inexpensive replacement lillian cord from Tenkarabum.com, I was able to put a brand new lillian on my Tenkara rod. Full explanation here!

Thanks! I had one slip off but not break. I was thinking epoxy, but you removed any doubt.

[@jackdonachy9906]

Thanks!

What material is the Lillian made of?

[@KayakhacksFishing]

I am not sure. It is very flexible... kind of like a cross between silk and nylon

[@YaknTackle]

Dacron I believe

[@sugriv3405]

Informative...😍 Thanks

[@KayakhacksFishing]

Welcome 😊

the tip on my tenkara has an eye on it, but no lillion. do I still need a lillion on it or just tie the level line to the eye?

[@KayakhacksFishing]

I am not familiar with the tenkara with the eye. Mine (older models) end with a straight tip. This site has been doing tenkara forever... I recommend sending him a note. www.tenkarabum.com/

[@KayakhacksFishing]

Did you figure out how to attach the line... I guess you just do it like a loop to loop connection? Who makes the tenkara with an eye at the tip instead of a lillian? I am curious and others may want to know the answer as well.

[@dkat1108]

Ya why couldn't you put a tiny rod tip eye on a tenkara rod and tie to that ?

[@KayakhacksFishing]

I suppose you could, but that is not the normal approach.
