Thanks!

Thanks Chris for your thorough explanations in all your reviews. I just started to explore tenkara. I wanted to offer use of the Orvis tippet knot for the dropper. I have found it easier to tie and has the benefit of using the upper tag which tends to hang at almost 90 degrees from the running line so less tangling. If you did that with a double or triple surgeons the upper tag would break off on a larger fish. You can also tie the orvis tippet knot in line without breaking the main line.

Thanks Ed. I do use the Orvis knot at times as well. I like it.

Very informative video. Thank you.

Thanks for watching!

Nice video thank you. How do you construct your Keiryu specific lines?

@tenkaraonthetrail 2 года назад

Thanks Michael. I’m going to do another video on it, but I use the set up that Chris Stewart (Tenkarabum) describes. Three sections: 6’ of 1.25 Tenjo line, middle section of something like 4x and then the 5x tippet section. I show a picture of it in my 24’ rod video as well.

@patrickmulcahy3179 2 года назад

When you use a dropper fly, what percentages of your hook ups are on the dropper versus the point fly?

@tenkaraonthetrail 2 года назад

By far, I get more hits on the point fly. Although I’ve been using two fly rigs for many of my videos, 90% of the time I use a single fly rig.

Hi, My name is Joe. I enjoyed your video. I had just started Tenkara fishing and came across with a question, that is “Why regular fly line is not used on a tenkara rod?” I haven’t seen anyone talks about it. I would appreciate your insight. Thanks.

@tenkaraonthetrail 2 года назад

Hi Joe. The primary concept with tenkara is to NOT have any line on the water, so light line works best. Regular fly line is far too heavy for most tenkara techniques. There are times that I use a floating line (lake), but that’s rare

@thatsnotcool007 2 года назад

@@tenkaraonthetrail Thanks for your reply. I can see tenkara is more suitable for smaller streams. Thanks again.

@@thatsnotcool007… I fished the large San Juan river a week ago and did quite well using my new Tekara rod for the first time. The San Juan is one of the premier trout rivers in N. America. I live three hours from the protected catch and release section where I have been fly-fishing for over the 40 years I have lived in New Mexico. I am going back November 10th

@Victor47930 11 месяцев назад

What knot are using to attach the tippet ring to your level line? Thanks.

@tenkaraonthetrail 11 месяцев назад

A standard clinch knot will work, but I also use an orvis knot. In either case, I will use a little UV knot sense (resin) to make it smoother and more “permanent”.

@rudychavira5558 Год назад

Sir what typical length do you make your level line leaders.

@tenkaraonthetrail Год назад

Hey Rudy, I typically start out with a level line about the length of the rod plus or minus a foot. Depending on the situation I may go longer: downstream or downwind techniques and wide open casting for example.

@@tenkaraonthetrail thanks any info I get is 1 step closer appreciate your help

@tenkaraonthetrail Год назад

You’re welcome. Experiment with different lengths and techniques and see what works for you, the rods, and environment you fish in. .
