You do outstanding reviews. I originally bought a Dragontail Hellbender in part due to your review of the rod. Coincidentally I also just bought a Sato and like you am very impressed with it. Keep the reviews coming. :)
+mobiltec Exciting! It really is compact. On trail, I'd drop my pack, stick my spool of line with a fly in my pocket, grab my pole and duck off through the woods to head up stream. Simplicity like that is hard to beat.
Joe Brewer It sounds like you fish the same way I do. I do what I call fish hunting. I don't stay in one place very long. Hike up stream with very little on my person. I do a lot of catch and release but if I'm fish hungry I'll keep one or two for dinner.
Thanks, Joe. I bought a Sato a few months ago and can't wait for the ice to melt so I can try this. (This pole may be fine for lots of fishing styles, but ice fishing is not one of them :)
Great video Joe! I've been looking forward to this vid for some time now since discussing Tenkara with you whilst you were walking the CDT. You have not disappointed! Cheers Gary
Great video, man! Pretty much sold me on the idea of getting one for my hiking trips. Where are you fishing in this video? Also, do you fly fish in the traditional sense as well? Thanks! look forward to more of your videos
+joe bernall Many of the clips from trail were from Wyoming and northern Colorado. There were some incredible streams to fish along the CDT. I do traditional fly fishing as well. Although I haven't really used it since getting the tenkara rod.
+Outa ThisWorld Check out this cottage gear site, they've got some nice ones: www.traillitedesigns.com/traillite-designs.html I am going to try and design a really light DIY net sometime. If It is successful, I'll likely do an instructional video on it.
+Aaron Kosydar 99% of the time I just catch and release. There were a few that ended up really swallowing the hooks and dying, so I cooked them up. I may do a video on this in the future, though it might be a bit out of place on my channel.
I dunno, everyone eats on the trail after all. I think you could get some interest out of short "technique" videos. Cooking fish, tying knots, etc... but I'm sure you have a much better idea of what people will actually watch than I do.
+salrussano1 Absolutely, that's what I did. There are a few towns where you may need to mail a box of food ahead from that town to one a few stops ahead, but you can deal with that on trail.
+salrussano1 Nice! Good luck and enjoy it, the PCT is so incredible. Fishing in the Sierra's will be so fun with a Tenkara rod. I wish I'd have had one then. If you end up ordering the rod from amazon, and you do it through this link: amzn.to/1JgTM96 I get a little kickback. Thanks!
To you guys that know “0” about outside... except since you discovered tenkara and still know nothing, in fishing, that red tube is called a rod “sock”. Tubes are rigid, socks are not. Now, with that out of the way, how do you tenkara guys justify hurting baby fish?? We actual fishermen go out of our way to leave the babies alone in the “nursery” streams. Who are you to pillage them??
