    Caught the first trout on my new tenkara rod last night. I only fished 3 holes in a small creek in south-central PA and landed 4 wild browns. I'm still working out my preferred line/leader setup, but am very happy with the results so far.

    Jeez, you're the master at this Tenkara, but all of those fish that got off didso because you bowed the rod immediately after hook set. Watch the video to see what you were doing. Usually you set the hook and keep the rod tip high. That and barbless hooks.

    I had a strange tenkara dream last night. I started out catching a PB rainbow that turned out to be a double with a gnarly looking largemouth taking the fly. I then started catching fish indoors under counters, and then outside again out of hidden puddles near the house I grew up in.

      According to a random site on the internet, "Catching a fish in your dream relates to "catching" your dreams. Your goals are in sight, and you're chasing after them!" So I guess that's a good thing? Lol.

  • @JohnCallender
    @JohnCallender Před 3 měsíci

    In a situation like this where you’re seeing fishing taking flies (and leaves!) at the surface, would you ever consider switching to a dry fly? I know you fish subsurface kebari flies almost exclusively, but I’m curious what your thinking is on the question of switching flies to match the current situation vs. just sticking with whatever happens to be on your line and making it work.

    • @TenkaraAddict
      @TenkaraAddict  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I very, very rarely switch. I'd say I do it less than once a year on average. Only if I see fish repeatedly go up to and then reject a fly do I switch, and that wasn't the case here.
