My favorite Keiryu rod - Part 2

BlueBird Sky, sunny day, Sawanobori 53 river to himself and good trout action. Thats a good day!

Do you have footage of fishing this area in late spring through summer so we could see how it looks in full foliage?

[@tenkaraonthetrail]

I don’t think I do. Usually I only fish there when I can’t hike into the high country.

Try this one. KOKORO & bigger fish! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6jKppqObZ5mh80

Oh, well. I enjoyed the video, and I greatly appreciate, as a former documentary film-maker, that you are aware of not jerking your head all over the place while wearing, what I guess is a go-pro. thank you.

I actually keep it on my chest most of the time but sometimes it’s angled a little too high when I’m wearing waders because of the magnetic device I use. Also sometimes I’m fishing in one direction but my body is pointing in the other so I don’t capture things. Pros and cons to it all I guess

Really nice rod, however I could not get past the swing weight and sold it. I've found over the years 400cm is my max.

Understandable. Despite being very light, 5.3m is long for one handed use, but I’m used to it. I fished one-handed for nearly 6 hours that day and never fatigued. I have fished a couple 4.5m rods that were more tiring for me. I do use two hands when fighting fish as you saw. It does make a 4m rod feel like a toy though😂.
