Micro fishing NH

(southern New Hampshire)

My mother bought me the Suntech Kurenai HM30R for my 15th birthday. I've had a blast with it. Its a great micro fishing rod and handles flies on the trout stream beautifully. ( I've yet to catch a trout.)

The first time I took it fishing I was casting off a boat with a wet fly and had already caught a perch. A massive pickerel lunged out and bent the rod way further then it should. Luckily the tippet broke and not the rod.

The rod has enough backbone to keep the bull creek chub out of the stick but is playful enough to make it a fight to remember.

“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten” - Benjamin Franklin

"Be sure in casting, that your fly fall first into the water, for if the line fall first, it scares or frightens the fish..." -
Col. Robert Venables 1662

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.

We've all had situations where seriously chewed up flies kept catching fish after fish after fish. It is no sin to tie flies that come off the vise looking seriously chewed up.

Seriously, all the hooks sold on TenkaraBum.com, whether packaged as loose hooks or incorporated into flies, are dangerously sharp. Some have barbs, which make removal from skin, eyes or clothing difficult. Wear eye protection. Wear a broad-brimmed hat. If you fish with or around children, bend down all hook barbs and make sure the children wear eye protection and broad-brimmed hats. Be aware of your back cast so no one gets hooked.

Also, all the rods sold on TenkaraBum.com will conduct electricity. Do not, under any circumstances, fish during a thunder storm. Consider any fishing rod to be a lightning rod! Fishing rods can and do get hit by lightning!
