Happy Thanksgiving, Tenkara Angler Community! 🦃

Grateful for all our readers, contributors, and friends who share the love of time on the water. Thanks for the stories, creativity, and passion you bring to tenkara. Enjoy good food, good company, and thoughts of your next cast. Tight lines!

Saturday's are "work" days for Tenkara Angler this time of year. Editing upcoming podcasts like December's (pictured), and gathering & paginating articles for the 2026 print issue, it's a busy time, even if sadly, it doesn't involve being outdoors...

Hey... new Tenkara Angler Level Line podcast incoming tomorrow! We're doing a "show & tell" of gear we don't fish without! Check out the video podcast on YouTube starting tomorrow (Monday) morning... But those of you who subscribe via audio podcasts, you know it drops a little bit early today! 😉

We're recording our next Level Line podcast on Tuesday. The topic is "Preseason Preparation". Is there anything you personally do to get ready for Spring #tenkara fishing? Or any subjects you'd like us to discuss? Gear maintenance, scouting water, it's all fair game...

Personally, I view a tenkara rod as a tool. The rods were developed to fish in high gradient mountain streams for trout and char, so they excel there. But other species or situations, I'll grab a fly rod & reel. Any fishing that would require a 5 weight+, I'm not picking tenkara first. (Mike Agneta)

I find as you click through the various links at the bottom of the page, the files vary dramatically. I mean these are wild!

Would like to use this space on Bluesky for more than just reposting our latest articles. Conversations with fellow enthusiasts would be fun. Are there any #tenkara or fixed line #flyfishing related topics you'd like to discuss?

🦃 Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
As we kickoff the holiday season, the crew at Tenkara Angler wanted to express our sincere appreciation to all of our fixed line friends. Thank you for being a shining example of a supportive community. #tenkara

To bead or not to bead...
There are certainly different situations in which a little extra weight might help or hinder. What's your kebari preference?
#tenkara #flyfishing

Hello! New here, looking to both (re)connect with old friends and make new ones in the #tenkara and fixed line #flyfishing community. We plan to chat, share articles from our website, and maybe even get some folks to try tenkara for the first time. It's a lot of fun!
