from 659 tenkara gear reviewsSmall creeks in southeast alaska
I just received my rod so have yet to use it !! From what I see I’m super excited exactly what was looking for!! Most creeks I fish in southeast Alaska are brushy making casting near impossible !! I can’t wait to see what I can do with the tenkara!!

Took my tenkara rod to the beach. Broke the tip in the room and never got to fish. Just my luck
Once I got back, I ordered a replacement tip and had the replacement in a couple of days. Thanks guys.

The customer service is fantastic. They have been responsive and professional in how they handle warranty concerns. I could not be more pleased.

Very cool little line holder. I like to carry as little gear as possible. With the Keeper you can carry enough flies and line for a full day of fishing.

Needed a replacement tip after breaking mine right after purchase. Easy to order. Easy to use.

What a fantastic rod! Tenkara is so easy to learn and enjoy. The compact collapsed size makes it so easy to take with you wherever you go. My conventional fly fishing rigs are so much more work (but just as enjoyable), with Tenkara, everything you need is in your pocket!

Still one of my favorite rods for small mountain streams. I have used this rods for years both guiding and when fishing by myself. Just picked up another one for my 5 year old.

So incredibly convenient! Easy to pack! Had my first outing with it and caught fish right away. Can’t wait to use it again.

The rod case is solid and very nice looking. It's a replacement for my original Iwana case that I ran over with my car(luckily the rod wasn't in it). My very old Iwana fits perfectly in the new case.
I've been a customer of Tenkara USA since their early years. The quality of their products, the user experience shopping from the website, and their outstanding customer service keeps me coming back.
This is a top notch company.

I have been fishing the tributaries of Lake Superior in Northern Minnesota.
This is my first Tenkara rod (I am used to using an 8 weight western fly rod). I really enjoy how light and portable the rod is. The 12 ft. length took a little getting used to, but it's nice for casting into hard to reach spots on the river. I caught my first fish (10 inch brook trout) last weekend, and I am looking forward to going out again soon!

Everything you need to get started! I enjoyed using this weekend. Connected the bag to my waders and off I went.
