What I love about your fishing style is that you don’t get all obsessive about one particular fly for a particular creek at a particular time of day. I don’t think fish are that smart, they just see potential food. You just pull out the next fly in your collection and catch a whole bunch.
I second this. If they are biting they are biting yenno.
If they can see it and they’re hungry they’ll eat it. That’s simple, the way I like it too.
@@davedave5083 I bet there are "serious" fly fishermen who are having strokes over what we're saying here. I just don't think the fly matters, you just need hungry fish.
If the fish is not pressured they are very dumb. If they are very pressured they will think twice about eating the mystery fly going around.
@@GainsGoblin the best fishing spots are the ones that are the hardest to get to!
We've had a less-than-stellar fishing season because of rain this year, and I haven't fished since May. But watching your video today, I decided to head out to my favourite creek and do some fishing. I managed to catch one five-inch brookie, and it made it all worth it. Thanks for the inspiration :)
You are very fortunate to have access to such beautiful mountain streams with Brook Trout. They never acclimatised here in Australia as Rainbow and Brown have.
Great packable rod! They are now sold out no doubt from your video! Looks like the Uintas! 👍👍
I've always loved that little rod! Would def like to fish it someday. Nice video Tristan, that stream was a beauty!
Definitely an ideal stream for sure! If i had to fish that size of stream the rest of my life I for sure would!
That is one sweet little creek. Tell NOBODY where it is. And that is one sweet little rod. Shame on you for making me covet it LOL! Like I need another rod right? Then again, I reckon I do! Sweet video flick and mahalo!
Another great video. Love the play by play, fish on, fell in a hole, shoe is wet… Lol.
Quite a wonderful little creek! And thank you for the rod review, as well. Thanks for another fun outing!
Thanks Michael!
I have fly fished for years but never tried Tenkara. That is fixing to change though. I just ordered a Tenkara Yari and I am so looking forward to fishing it. Great trip you had there. I subbed.
this video and rod and you switching techniques to catch fish was totally awesome! Man what a creek. You are truly blessed my friend. Thank you for the great video, maybe your best.
Thanks Richard!
Tristan. It seems that in your videos you tend to fish in the late mornings or afternoons. We always hit the streams at first light and it’s slow for us until the sun hits the water . In your opinion is Tenkara fishing better later in the day ? Or do we just have to experiment with different flies Thanks for the videos. We love them.
Awesome! Great option for a backpacking rod. Thanks for sharing and nice to see you back.
Thanks for watching!
Nissin Pocket Mini has been my secret weapon for years.
I love my Bear Claw. Best backpacking rod ever
"Picturesque" isn't even a good word for that beautiful creek. And the brookies were biting!
They were indeed! Thanks Robert 👍
Thanks for sharing another beautiful day fishing!
Thanks for watching!
These poor fish bouncing from rock to rock into the net. Love the videos keep them coming!!
Thanks!
What a fun little creek. We have tons of those in Oregon, but they mostly have rainbow or cutthroat trout.
This is what I have been after. It is good looking and durable.
Seems like the pocket minis are discontinued, they're no longer listed on the Nissin site.
I love my Nissin Pocket Mini V3 270... sadly I broke the tip collapsing it this last weekend. Perfect for backpacking or just throwing in your pack if you heading for a hike. It is more durable than I expected with larger fish, but be careful putting it away.
Aw man, I'm sorry to hear that! Such a cool little rod. I'd like to try the 270 version at some point.

What a great little rod and a lovely little creek. Thanks.
Thanks Peter!
Thanks, Tristan! Loved it!
I also need to catch just one more, then just one more, just one more hole then it’s dark 🎣😀👍
Huge fan of your video's. I do have a question though: in your video it is hard to see, but do you think the majority of bites are on or below surface? Never see you putting any grease or something on you fly. Thanks very much!
That looked like a lot of fun.
Back in the 80s, My wife(Japanese) and I used to go up in the hills out the back of Niseko in norther japan using these small rods, a float and a small hook. We used Salmon Roe we bought from the super market as bait. We used to catch Yamame(a local species) Masu and Trout. We used to look for the deepest holes at the bottom of or near a waterfall and drop in there. Was great fun. One year, I was in the middle of a stream only to find myself encircled by Salmon heading up stream to spawn. They were so thick in the water I could pat them as the went by.
nice. beautiful stream, great fishing. thanks again.
Thanks Eric!
Another awesome video well done
Do you have a video on setting up the line and what line to buy and putting it on
Nope, I don't

I am here to inform you cane pole
I HAD 2 Tenkara USA Rhodos - I was tag-teaming it with a conventional bamboo fly rod on my last trip, got careless, and dropped it, collapsed, in the stream I was fishing - I'm sure it's made it to the Mississippi by now. I went to the link you posted - it's actually cheaper by a few bucks than the Rhodo - I might have to get one.
I have a Rhodo, and it's a great rod. But so is this, so... 🤷♂
If you liked the Rhodo stick with it, parts are easier to get.

I have cough a lot of brook trout on one of them . hope you had a great day
Thanks Richard!
Great video I would love to get back into it.
good stuff. your backlog is getting me through
I would love to give this rod a try but $225 is a lot of love😬
@TenkaraAddict
Been looking for this exact rod everywhere, but i never found any.
Can you please share me if you know of a place or someone who's selling?
Or if i may buy the one you have?
I'm from Canada and i would really love to have 1.
Thanks a'bunch.
Hey do you have a link for that fishing net!thanks
That rod, like the kurenai, became a cult among tenkara anglers. I remember Tom Davis reviewing it and saying he was woried about how thin were the walls on this jem. But i never read many complaints about people breaking it despite its fragility.
The sections are worryingly small, but it's a great little rod as long as you avoid breaking it 😄
@@TenkaraAddict That’s why after reading reviews on it I decided to go with the Tenkara Tanuki Pocket Ninja. It’s about 2” longer collapsed and is not a Japanese rod, but made with Japanese carbon fiber and his rods have a pretty good reputation and parts can be ordered off his website.
I’m pretty happy with it and so far no breaks. 😎👍

That looks like the perfect mountain stream. Me and my dad found. One of these and it was full of Brookies and some cutthroats. I caught my first westslope cutthroat. I’ve got tons of cuttbows but never a pure bred one. They are so pretty
They are! I love catching cutthroat. Congrats on your catch.
@@TenkaraAddict thanks
Thanks
Yeah!
This is clearly a set. It’s too perfect looking.

CPW just announced a record breaking Brook Trout. 23.25” and 7.84lbs. Might have been a bit much for that rod. Lol
I'm looking at tenkara to be able to have a small light weight rod to carry while hunting/backpacking. I'm surprised how pricy these rods are.
Nice creek
Fun Video, thanks
Thanks Lee!
Does this rod use fly line?
Beautiful location. Curious, does the state stock these remote streams with brook trout, if so how, if only way to access is hiking in? Were there ever native cutthroat in them?
Many states drop them from plane and helicopter.
I'm guessing that one of the lakes that this connects to was stocked by helicopter, and then they got into the creek. I don't know if there were ever native cutthroat in there. There still are cutthroat in similar streams in the mountain range, but I don't know about this particular one.
I live in northern Utah and just got my first tenkara rod today. Where’s the best spot to start? I’d love to get a few locations from you.
What bout nissin Tenkara mini?
I'm new to watching this style of fishing. I'd like to ask a rather dumb question for the sake of personal clarification. My guess is that you are using barbless hooks, Thank you
yes he does.. he is all C&R and thats why so many spit the hook....
Yes. All barbless.
Tenkara looks like it would be fun, but I find that the price to entry makes absolutely no sense.
I totally agree. It doesn't make any sense to pay such prices for just a simple collapsible rod. You can buy a good trout ranger + reel set for similar prices and you can do more, better, easier, more convenient and with more options. The whole thing about tenkara is more like a toy than an actually useful tool.
How would you say it compares to the Tiny Ten rod?
This rod is better in every way except price.
@@TenkaraAddict Thanks
Did you follow the recommend tippet size? 7x?
Nope, I fish it with 5x
What’s he best fly for streams this size?
Hi, Tristan….have you ever used any Tenkara rods? I think I saw a vid where you used the Sierra…..do you like their rods?
Where will I find this rod ?
Sigh
After seeing this video I waited a long time for one to become available. $250 later. It arrived on Thursday and broke with the first fish on Friday.
First fish I caught was a small 6" to 8" bass, the rod doubled over as I got it to shore and as I reached for the line the rod broke in two places.
Sigh
🙏🙏🙏
at 12:40 mark, when you fell: "It hurt a little bit, but at least I didn't break the rod, and I landed the fish." - You have your priorities straight: fish first.
Lol yep! Gotta land that fish!

😀this is a very fragile fishing rod.But she successfully catches both Keriya and Tenkar.
Link to purchase this?
In the description 👍
$224 BUCKS????? holy crap, it better set the hook for me!!!
I want to buy
????
all I ever see anyone catch with these rods is minnows
Ok, let’s say you step down into that spot and you break your ankle? Then what? Does someone know where you are? Do you have a sat phone?
I have a Garmin InReach satellite communicator with me.
@@TenkaraAddict thank goodness!
Chances of you breaking it are fairly high lol
You know, we see these videos from you high up in the mountains and you say 3-4 miles in and out, and I’m already tired thinking about it.
This was actually more like 5 or 6 miles each way 😄
Wow...kinda expensive $250!😮
$225 for that flimsy thing? There's a sucker born every minute.
$250 for the rod. Ouch.
Worth it, IMO.
@@TenkaraAddict I believe it, but outside my range sadly. I did just get the Shadowfire rod and am looking forward to getting to try it, any advice for colorado?
$224.95!?!?!?!?
Wait till you find out what non-tenkara fly rods cost! 😄
Worth it!
$224.95

We don’t have to see the fish, you can keep them in the water.
Feel free to stop watching then
Speak for yourself. Maybe you should try a different hobby, like macramé?
Link please
In the description, as always
