To be fair I love my Tenkara rods just as much as my western rods. For winter nymphing they rule. Plus no icy ferrules. Call it what you will, hundreds of years of subsistence fisherman can't be wrong.
Jeff Cowles I do too, I mostly use my tenkara for areas the reach is enough (I use an Ito, so almost 15 ft) since I find the presentation to be much more natural.
Ben, this video made me laugh for the first time today! If I told you about the week I’ve had you wouldn’t believe me. I needed a laugh. Thanks for the much needed video!! (“I tenkaraed a catfish!” should be on a t-shirt!) Thanks again!!

We all know better! That didn’t look like Colorado..perch, crappie catfish & Bass.🤔 Thanks for taking us along Ben! 👍👍
There is a “huge“ difference between tenkara and cane pole fishing! Both lob a fly or bait a very short distance but one costs $2 dollars and the other costs $200.
@@oliverg3184 I regularly fish tenkara with a 25 ft Daiwa floating hybrid line on 360-410 cm rods. Trust me most freshwater fish you catch period even with a western fly setup are within 40 ft if you notice. The longer the line the more slack there is anyway. Here is an article on long line tenkara rigs www.tenkarabum.com/long-line-tenkara.html
Funny video, even though I Ten-KA-Ra fish alongside fly fishing, it cracks me up when you show your Tenkara love. I just got back from a week long fishing trip and caught equal numbers on both rods... I typically use about 20' of shooting line with about 5' of tippet with my dry flies for my lake fishing Tenkara... casting that is very similar to my fly fishing rod... so I guess I'm not a purist Tenkara dude, but the minimalist gear set up and take along for those spur of the moment stops to fish makes it easy. You won't see me with big rod tubes on my Subie for those cane poles. And I can take along my gear on trips with the boss without angering her with all my fussy gear and rods, so for me, the ol' cane pole has some merit. Love all your videos, I've gained quite a few tips from you and I appreciate them all. Cheers and Beers
I bought a switch rod this year, really suck at casting that thing. I either need to commit to practicing with it or sell the damn thing, which is more likely than getting more practice time casting it
My Life Is Dog Hair I felt it was worth the try, but normally I’m just happy catching basic lake fish that my basic 6wt can easily handle. My switch is a 7-8wt but I doubt I’ll really have the need for it. It’s the debate in my head to keep it for that rare trip or just dump it to minimize gear. I truly don’t have the time to be planning on using it more than rarely and probably shouldn’t have made the expenditure, case of G.A.S. I guess.
It sounds like Tenkara and fly fishing are like kayaks and canoes where the paddle type determines which boat you're in. Does this mean that I can stab a big fat night crawler on the hook and as long as I'm using a fly fishing type reel I can still wear my Orvis waders and claim to be fly fishing? 😂 Thanks for the video Ben! (PS: your boys are entertaining enough that they could have their own RUclips channel.)
Really love all your videos, except ones in which you dis Tenkara. You have it all wrong! It is an awesome addition to my fly fishing arsenal. I have had days on streams when my Tenkara rod out fished my fly rod. It gives you exceptionally light presentations and great ability to drop flies into little pockets and keep them there far beyond what a traditional fly set up will do. And it is a pile a fun. It is most definitely fly fishing, as most fish it with flies, and not shiners! Admit it, you really love Tenkara!!!
Agreed but you can’t reason with these line strippers. They are too simple minded to understand that you cast a tenkara rod. I have a 30ft range with mine which is as far as I usually cast with my fly rod anyways.
jeff goldberg I used to “fly fish” lakes with a clear bobber and spinning outfit. Was in some park many years ago and they had stocked Atlantic salmon in a small lake. Regs said only traditional fly fishing equipment was allowed. Lake was full of “fly” fishermen in float tubes stripping lines or kicking backwards in their tubes while they dragged their imitations behind them. It looked a lot like trolling to me. As a backpacker who is trying to limit gear and weight, I can see the advantages of using a Tenkara setup to fish small Sierra streams.
Agree, and really dig your fishing fun times. When I was a kid cane pole fishing was with a .99 cent varnished cane pole (we could get one with 10 coke bottles). The poles you guys were using were "Crappie Rods" and cost about 10 bucks down at the K-Mart. As I got older dad bought a boat. It was a used canoe that we carried on top of the Dodge Dart. That was when we became snobs and shelled out for the Crappie Rods.
My understanding of tenkara fishing was the line was supposed to be tied at the base of the pole so you wouldn't lose it, and you would still have eyes for casting, and then you would cast like normal fly fishing but no reel still.
If catfishing, you're fishing for catfish, bass fishing you're fishing for bass, etc. Use a top water, you're top water fishing, fly fishing, you're either fishing with flies, or fishing for flies. For me, no matter what I'm using or catching I'm fishing, and I'm a fisherman.
My new favorite (fly) fishing channel, and I have to say, I absolutely love this video. You guys are out there having actual FUN while fishing. The thing with some of these other channels, fly fishing is taken so seriously and in my opinion significantly overcomplicated. Meanwhile, your stuff is totally unpretentious and simplified. My wife and I have our first one on the way, and I am really looking forward to taken my kid fishing, and I would be happy with having even half the fun you guys had here.
My Life Is Dog Hair Like one does in tenkara? The rod loads and casts the line. There’s even different weights, but they’re more for how delicate you need it to be, wind, etc.
So if you fish bead head nymphs on a level line and light tippet, is it Euro nymphing if you use a light 600/400 12' tenkara rod? Or is it only euro nymphing if you fish bead head if you fish bead head nymphs on a 12' 2-weight euro nymphing rod with all of the line you intend to use out of the reel?
If you are casting the line and the weight of the line carries the fly, it is fly fishing. If the hook, bait, lure, fly is pulling the line during the cast it is not fly fishing. Choose whatever type of rod,reel,line combo you want. This is just my opinion. (Not saying it has to be yours as well)
I am a Japanese tenkara fisher. Thank you for your interest in tenkara. But it's not Tenkara . Tenkara is traditional Japanese fly fishing. Would you like to watch my video? I recommend a video of my teacher Tenkara Master Masami Sakakibara.
@@JP-dz7zu there is no need to mend, what is already unbroken. No reel no problem. Confushia say, long rod long line shits on short rod reel presentation.
On open water like that.. yeah.. it’s just a cane pole. Tenkara is mostly for mountain rivers and streams. Slingshot casting gives it a real edge in that environment. Look it up.
..... You serious? you can roll cast tenkara, it doesnt need a bobber, and you use a fly, jig or bait. I dont care for tenkara, but there is definitely a difference between pole and tenkara. It's just a word, get over it. To me nymphing isnt the same as fly fishing, and modern flies with spoons, spinners, curl tails and bibs are lures, but really its just semantics. Tenkara is Tenkara, its own thing all together. In a way Tenkara is just japanese for cane pole.
I think tenkara is fun, but this video is awesome. Tenkara reminds me of bamboo pole fishing as a kid. Anyhow there is nothing better than watching the Joe Dirt of tenkara. I'm motivated to go tenkara fishing now!!!
Dude, why are you hotspotting my favorite sea run cutty spot down in the florida keys, maybe you should not put these incredible tenkara spots on the internet for everybody to see. We have too many tenkara fisherman on these saltwater hotspots already.... jk, love the videos, keep it up
I understand the sarcasm but saying tenkara rods are cane pole rods is like saying fly rods are the same as spinning rods cos they both have reels. If you use a bobber on a tenkara rod yes it's like a short cane pole but when it's fished with out one and cast, tenkara is its own thing. Try using a 13 ft rod with 15-20 ft of line plus leader and just a fly. Its in its own class of fishing.
It’s the tenkara pole challenge , we wanna see how big of a fish ( saltwater ) you can catch and land on a tenkara ( cane pole 👈🏼) without breaking it , why you ask ! Because your a huge fisherman ! Oh and you have to use a fly ! 👈🏼😳. That day with mom and the boys was HUGE !
Huge Fly Fisherman well you do, apparently. Put that bait fish rig on a fly rod and it's fly fishing? No of course not. Tenkara is don with a fly on the end of the line. Just like modern fly fishing. And catch a big fish on tenkara, that's not for kids and grandmas.
@@Thomas73Christensen it's just funny though. I mean, as if the history of fly fishing began with a 4 piece tip over ferrule carbon rod and large arbor cast aluminum reel with sealed drags and reversible retrieve. He took his wife and kids fishing and made a funny video about Tenkara. From someone that does fish Tenkara style pretty often, it's actually funny. You ain't wrong though.
500 hundred years ago western fly fishing poles didn't use a reel. They were basicly loooong poles with a line tied to its tip. What makes The total difference to tenkra is the use com of fly instead of bai, not the absence of a reel.
“I tenkaraed a catfish!” Made me smile. You guys had some fun together. Nice job.
My favorite line too.
If that ain’t proof that tenkara is cane pole fish in’…
We need "I tenkaraed a catfish" stickers
Show us on the doll where the Tenkara community hurt you...
Reel in your Tenkara line first.
Strike indicator is to bobber as tenkara is to cane pole.
Discuss.
If the shoe fits.
I got this right on my SATs
What do you think they did for fly fishing before the reel was invented?

Dr. Ishigaki frowns upon your conclusion
Sooo... what makes euro nymphing fly fishing and not tenkara? The unused reel? The tight pants?
But then again what makes "fly fishing" with a bobber and a nymph any different than tying a nypmph on the end of a match rod?
Don’t you know that ever since fly fishing was invented in the west, they used reels??
My Life Is Dog Hair Then what is fly fishing? If you’re casting flies, sounds like fly fishing to me...
@My Life Is Dog Hairthen nymphing with a bobber shouldn't be too.
My Life Is Dog Hair Like one does in tenkara? The rod loads and casts the line. There’s even different weights, but they’re more for how delicate you need it to be, wind, etc.

Bobber fishing with a Tenkara Rod is like putting arrows in a slingshot. It can be done. Wait, is this really Charlie Berens?
