The Tenkara (Japanese traditional fishing methods)

[@LumocolorARTnr1319]

"Just started learning english this month" Dude you speak really good for 1 month learning, I understood everything. I know video is old but just wanted to say it.

[@benoitlanusse-cazale1989]

I'm agree

[@davidkaye6057]

I first saw a Tenkara rod 15 years ago from my Japanese Father in Law. I had no idea how it was used to fish with. I now fish tenkara style and really enjoy it. Your English is impressive. Keep making videos you are doing such a great job. I lived in Japan for 14 years and never fished there. I regret it now.

[@pmstorm]

Wonderful video! Your english is very good also! Came Japan from Hawaii last December and am excited to learn Tenkara. Thank you.😊😊 素晴らしいビデオです！あなたの英語もとても上手です！昨年の12月にハワイから日本に来て、テンカラを学ぶことに興奮しています。ありがとう！😊😊🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@plantmastersapprentice]

Thanks for making this video. Really enjoyed watching and all the insights into this beautiful way of fishing.

[@IPA_HATER]

4:20 mark is excellent underwater video of a sakasa kebari! Thank you for the video. One of the famous American tenkara anglers says that tenkara is not interesting because the gear is simple, but the complexity of what you can do with simple gear makes it interesting. Tight lines!

[@stephenhouse7451]

Fantastic introduction to tenkara. Really makes me want to try. Especially in your beautiful mounting streams. And your English is excellent. No need to apologise. Many thanks for the video.

[@NotRelevant1]

I’m impressed by your English! I’ve done a bit of rod and reel fly fishing before but I’m very interested in trying tenkara. Looks like a lovely place to fish.

[@fishermansspoon]

luc lachapelle Thank you! My English..... 😂. Fly and Tenkara, there are advantages to both. I chose Tenkara because the tackle is cheap. Anyway, fishing is great. Heal our heart.

[@royramdeen8864]

Your English is getting much better. I love all your tankara videos as well as your cooking ones. Thanks for the fishing lesson.

[@fishermansspoon]

np I'm very grad to your comment. thank you!

Came to learn a bit about Tenkara fishing after seeing it mentioned, was not disappointed! Thanks for the great video, looks like a beautiful fishing spot.

[@kevinkidner917]

Hello from Wales .(uk) I have been tenkara fishing for 4 years now . I have never met anyone else tenkara fishing .so your video will help so much .no problems with your English .have fun .can't wait for next video

[@davidkennedy9968]

Good video. And your English is good! I fly fish but have recently learned of tenkara. I appreciate the simplicity of this method in respect to equipment.

[@bobfitzgerald3510]

I understood your English easily and enjoyed your video …..starting tenkara this spring after years of fly fishing …the presentation of the fly and the simplicity of it appeals to me. ….I live just north of the Adirondacks in New York and just west of Vermonts Green mountains …..thanks again sir

[@sakelleys]

Well I have to say your English was very good I understood everything you were saying, and thank you for the great techniques in Tenkara.

[@matthewshipp3949]

Wonderful video and great English. There aren't very many videos of tenkara in Japan in English available so I hope you will do more. Thanks from the US :)

[@fishermansspoon]

[@gregorybeaudoin8136]

Liked and subscribed! I learned about Tenkara a few months ago and have been wanting to try it soon. It looks like to much fun! I also tie flies, and it is impressive how easily you made the sakasa kebari in this video! Also, I am impressed by your english after one month, and am warmed by the effort you put into learning. Very different from what I see here in the USA about foreign languages.

[@fishermansspoon]

Thank you 🙏 My salt water fishing movie was not popular in Japan lol, so I was giving up but I got better after listening to your opinion. I will continue to make videos in English.

[@tomteague5047]

I really enjoyed this video. Your English is very good, by the way. I have fly-fished with a rod and reel for many years, but two years ago I took up tenkara fishing in Wales. I love its simplicity. However, I find it difficult because it's necessary to approach very close in order to cast to a trout, and I often scare the fish.

[@ricosongotsitubondo]

Great video 🤩🤩 Can't stop to see other video.

[@CyprinusCarpioDiem]

I bought a tenkara rod for the first time this year, it was really fun to catch 20" trout with in the big river near me. These rods are stronger than they look, I was catching fish in water moving around 900ft/h.

Do you use keiryu rods?

[@fishermansspoon]

I used tenkara rod about 12ft at that time.

[@duncanlee893]

Are you adding any motion to the fly, or does it twitch and dance on its own in the current?

[@fishermansspoon]

Sometimes I add an action to Kebari in subsurface. It's like twitch but carefully and softly. It's effective when fish activity is high.

[@duncanlee893]

Fisherman's Spoon thank you so much! I ordered my first tenkara rod after watching this video!

[@X_Arkhan]

Hi ! I'm from the French Alps and I've started Tenkara in July of this year, this is a great video for learning ! What is the size of your level line ? For me it's #3.5 but for the next year I want to try smaller size like #2.

[@fishermansspoon]

SkayToo Thank you for watching my video. I also use the level line of # 3.5 normally.,and using # 2.5 when the fish is nervous. However, windy day has many troubles when using a light line. Tenkara is easy and simple, but it is very impressive😀😀

[@fishermansspoon]

Seth Kroppsterapi If the wind was not strong, I would use level line # 3, but in this video the wind was a bit strong so I used # 3.5😙😙

[@fishermansspoon]

Seth Kroppsterapi My favorite line is Sunline and Daiwa’s origins. there are very useful for me.

Hi i'm from Australia i am a fly fisher look to do some Tenkara fishing with your flies. what depth can you fish your flies in our streams, they are about 10 cm to 180 cm . What level line do you recommend for this scenario and length. can you fish your flies as dry and/or wet. My plan was to come to Japan this year however Covid19 put a stop to it, hopefully it will be better next year. Looking forward to your feedback

[@fishermansspoon]

おかきあかな こんばんは、ほとんどのテンカララインはフロロカーボン製なので糸グセは指で少し強めにテンションかけて竿先から毛鉤側にゆっくりシゴいてあげると簡単に取れると思います。その際、摩擦熱でヤケドしないように気をつけてくださいね、僕は何度かヤケドしてます😏
