backstrap pasties for dinner?
don't mind if i do.

nine years ago today, i was trying out tenkara at my creek-down-the-way and hooked this little guy with the second hand yamame i'd purchased through tenkara bum. that moment started a life enhancing journey for me that i am sooo stoked to still be on. to everyone i've met, learned from, and/or shared angling in the tenkara style with, i say cheers! #tenkara #tenkarausa #tenkaraflyfishing #warmwatertenkara #norcal #tenkarabum #lagunacreek #fixedlineflyfishing #fixedlinefreaks #bluegillonthefly #bluegill #yamameflyrods #tusa #tusayamame #creekfishing #fishsimply

great morning at the confluence with gilbert. he was a quick study. by noon, there was another stoked out tenkara angler who'd joined our ranks.

a week or so ago, i had the pleasure of taking out dave and his son, mike, for a lesson. we worked on casting, presentation, and reading water. unfortunately, no fish came to join in fun, but i ended to morning confident mike and dave are ready for them when the bite comes on.
