The Hane™ is a super compact all-around tenkara rod that will quickly become your favorite adventure rod. Measuring just under 15 inches when collapsed, but extending to 10ft 10in (330cm), the Hane fits nicely inside a small day pack, making this a superb tenkara rod for backpacking, bikefishing and other adventures.
Whether you are targeting trout in a mountain stream, or bass in an urban pond, the Hane will work well. It's a rod that can tag along in a variety of conditions without compromising durability. The Hane is also a popular rod for kids.
We decided to make this rod white, a unique color in our lineup. The idea was to have a rod that will blend in well with open skies above. A black rod does a good job blending in with canopy, but its movement tends to stand out when fishing ponds and open meadow streams. The thin and less visible tip sections of the rod are matte black.

“The Hane is a really comfortable rod for fishing the waters that I frequent. Collapsed, it fits well in the cargo pockets of my hiking shorts; and extended, it casts extremely well to those fishy pockets within its reaches. I have caught upwards of 14 inch brown trouts with no issues. It is so much fun!”

“Two days fishing in mountain streams and really enjoying the tenkara method and the high quality rod. I particularly like how small the Hane compacts down to, fits easily in a small bag for hiking into interesting streams.”

“I wanted to try Tenkara ever since I learned about fly fishing. I got the Hane as a first, and now I don't even touch my traditional rod and reel. This rod is so easy to bring with me anywhere and just start fishing. I emailed Tenkara USA, and they gave me a custom military discount. Great customer service, and an even greater rod!”

The Hane kit gave me everything to get started. My goal was an ultra portable fishing kit to carry on my mountain bike, and tenkara USA delivered. I've since purchased level line, furled line and a number of other flies and nymphs.

So far I have only fished for panfish on my local lake.
I’ve fly-fished for 20 years, so Tenkara is a bit of an adjustment. But the videos explained the cast well. Panfish were a good way to practice! I love the portability of this rod - very short when collapsed. One possible improvement: it would be good if the provided tapered line had a loop at the tippet end, so the tippet could be attached to that loop, not requiring a splice knot. (I tied my own loop.)

The Hane rod is an exceptionally well built rod for a wide range of fish sizes. I have caught 3" creek chubb, 8" bluegill, and 16" largemouth bass (6 lbs). The rod is strong, sensitive, and responsive. Quality is top notch. It feels great in the hand, and it is a beautiful rod to look at.
