Join the Discover Tenkara team on a journey that has taken us from our earliest experiments in kebari fly tying to the mountains of Japan where we learn from the experts about the history, culture philosophies and principles behind tenkara's fishing flies.
Featuring John Pearson and Paul Gaskell with in-depth interviews and fly tying sequences from Dr. Ishigaki, Masami Sakakibara (Tenkara no Oni), Hirata san, Go Ishii and Makino san (Himano san).

The hooks are sharp.
The coffee's hot.
The fish are slippery when wet.
