Sakasa Kebari from Tenkara Times

November 6, 20123 CommentsFlies & Fly TyingBy Jason Klass

I just got a new tenkara rod today from Tenkara Times (review to follow) and it included a free sampling of some of their sakasa kebari.  I didn’t think much of it at first until I opened up the packaging and saw the quality of tying.  These are good tenkara flies.  Here are some closeups if you’re looking to buy (or inspiration to tie) some different sakasa kebari.

People often ask me where they can buy good tenkara flies and it’s nice to see a proliferation of places I can recommend.

Jason is an avid fly angler and backpacker. As a former fly fishing guide originally from Western New York, he moved to Colorado and became an early adopter of tenkara which perfectly suited the small, high altitude streams and lakes there. He has not fished a Western-style fly rod for trout since.

    Hello Jason! Do you have tips, or hints on tying on your line, a reverse hackle tenkara fly? Old age, and bad eye sight are getting the best of me!
