Tip of rod came broken in package.
I haven't use my Iwana rod yet. I am very impressed with the manner my order was processed. I received my order the next day. Everything I ordered was in excellent condition.
Because of the heat, I don't plan to go out fishing till late September or early October. When I do, I'll be happy to write a review of my experience using the Iwana Tenkara rod.
Thank you Tenkara USA for the way my order was handled : )
Used for the first time in alpine streams in Alaska while sheep hunting. Caught some grayling that were nearly 2 lb! Exceeded expectation big-time. Perfect for my intended use.
I had to write a review to congratulate your designer(s) on their attention to detail. I first bought the book just to get a feel for everything and it was gorgeous and informative.
I just purchased a Sato and this kit from Anglers Cove in The Springs and I was just blown away by all of the helpful diagrams everywhere. On the kit, inside the cardboard packaging for the tapered leader, just everywhere - it’s not daunting to get into Tenkara, but it IS different, and every chance you guys get you take the time to add helpful reminders and diagrams. Truly appreciated - thanks for the effort
Can’t wait to fish this rod it has great action to it

I'm happy with the Tenkara Kit I purchased. It comes with what's needed to get started with little guess work. I like the small compartment that stores the includes three flies. The pouch is light weight and allows you to keep what you need while keeping the setup simple and effective.
The kit seemed like a truly great value. I will call it an ok value at best. The only thing that doesn’t feel disgustingly cheap is the line/fly holder and the tapered line. But only time will tell on that. The forceps are a pain to open which may or may not get better with use. Everything came super scuffed and dirty almost like it was a kit someone returned it and their QC department didn’t even look and just sent it back through. This is the 2nd order I’ve made from this company where I’ve been disappointed. I recently bought the big book to discover the front cover was bent and the back cover was torn. If you’re looking to buy anything from Tenkara USA, it seems like you’re better off to buy it from a local dealer if you have one rather than direct.
Doing the One Knot is next to impossible with 5x tippet you sent

Awesome product!
I bought two rods. he Satori rod is great. The Sato's distal tip of the second to last telescoping extension is broken and split in half which is disappointing, however, their customer service was great and helped me unjam the rod.
Great product! Lots of happy customers!
Keep wasting line trying to figure out how to tie line to rod. I’m out way too much $$$ at this point. I give up.
Rainbow trout, green sunfish, small mouth bass
It’s a blast catching fish with my tenkara.. trout seem to love the kebari flys as well & I’m pretty happy with my purchase
I was disappointed in the contents of the kit. It did not match the kit that I thought I ordered. The web page that I ordered from showed a more extensive kit
Excellent product love being one with the environment
