I think they're all good points. A blind man doesn't play hide and seek and expect to win.
Indeed! Gris it is.
pszy,
I agree with both you and Chris in that the tool should work just fine without taking the fish out of the water. I mentioned that in my earlier comment and your comment confirms it. One of...
I prefer to use a pair of combo scissor clamps. This is what I usually use here but I also have some of these that work well too. I have always eyed the Ketchum Release tool and thought it looks...
If your willing to pay top dollar for a used one then why not just buy one from Tenkarabum http://www.tenkarabum.com/suntech-kurenai.html.

I have no doubts that you will love tenkara fishing. It's been delightfully addictive for me. Thankfully it doesn't take a pile of paraphernalia and trinkets to do it. This way we can buy even more...

I agree, the proof is on the water. Tenkara USA recently made a blog post to define what is and what is not a tenkara rod, it makes valid points regarding telescopic rods in general. It...
Sorry to hear this Chris. You've been a wonderful contribution to that forum, and many, since it's beginning. You've certainly helped me along my path of tenkara. I saw your name on the post today...
