Tenkara Memes

February 15, 201315 CommentsHumorBy Jason Klass

Ah, memes. Those ironic, sarcastic, or  dichotomous pictures with allegedly clever slogans overlaid upon them, or the over-the-top videos (think Gangnam style) that go viral overnight are all the rage right now. They dominate social media these says. I happened to see one related to tenkara today and thought, “why not bring tenkara down to this level?’. So here are a few memes I created.  I doubt any of them will go viral, but some might be good for a little laugh…

About the author

Jason Klass

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.

      Hi Alan, lol I guess you didn’t read my post on “fishing without water”. Believe me, if the rivers weren’t frozen, I woul be out. You can’t always fish but you can always do something fishing related!

    I liked the tenkara survival. Do you think one might have to repair the lilian after spearing a fish?

    If you have a Tenkara rod… Why in the world would you ever have to make a spear to catch a fish?

      BigFish, that’s the joke. Bear Grylls always overlooks the obvios, simple solutions and does something over the top. It’s kind of making fun of him. Like instead of just walking around a lake, he’ll construct an elaborate raft.
