Tenkara Podcast

December 6, 20133 CommentsBooks & MediaBy Jason Klass

I was recently interviewed about tenkara by Joel Ede of Kings Canyon Outdoors. If you’re an experienced tenkara angler, you might not hear a lot of new information but beginners will probably learn a few things. Regardless, it was a great conversation and will hopefully help spread the word about tenkara. Be sure to check out some of Joel’s other fishing podcasts on his site. Listen to my interview below (it starts at about 10:38 if you want to skip right to it):

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.
