I’ve sent out the instructions.
Thanks in advance for helping me get this done.
Sent you a pm.
Right on @James
Get it done and send to me.
Okay. I’ll send it to you within the next hour. Driven over 1000 miles for work this week and I’m supposed to have a desk job; been a little hectic.

Not that kind of hurry.

Looks great my friend.
It is an epic project.
One stop and you see a HUGE variety of choices but I’m seeing a theme. Other people might see something else in the article.
I have a few stragglers, worth waiting for but about 20 right now. It’s good the way it is but it will be fantastic no matter.
No where else can you see this without wading in a bunch of muck.

I’m rather curious to see the end results.
Me too.
I’m still waiting on my friends.
Sounds like a Stones song.
I fish a lot of small brushy creeks, mid-sized streams, and occasionally larger water. I’m retired on a fixed income and a Tenkara newb who, perhaps erroneously, still believes that zoom rods give me a wide range of effective fishing options for the number of rods I own. Until I am able determine a significant disadvantage to zoom rods my quiver and length options are:
Tenkara Times Watershed 300 (choked up 2.4, 2.6, 3.0 meters, great small stream rod)
DRAGONTail Mizuchi zx340 (2.4, 2.9, 340 meters - anxiously waiting like most of you)
[one of those first two may be sold after I determine which works better for me on the waters I fish, and the fish in them]
DRAGONtail Hydra zx390 (3.5, 3.9 meters)
Suntech GM 53 (4.5, 4.9, 5.3 meters)

I use a zoom rod as my one rod.
Don’t let people get in your head about what tenkara is or isn’t.
The Quivers article is finished.
You can see what a bunch of people use all in one spot.
I’ll push publish tonight.

Thank you.
It is a labor of love.
It’s a project that I’ve wanted to complete for a long time. I could not do it until now, I wanted to survey when people had enough time and choices to decide well, the equipment they used.
I won’t be doing another project like this for a while.
I do have plans for another one like it in a different direction.
I like this.
In one way I wish I had this choice but I had to explore for myself what I needed.
I choose Japanese rods with a heritage.
Not necessary but it is for me.
I’ve had some good fish days, now I have good fishing days.

All year this year I’ve been either fishing Oni 1 or itoshiro
Well not completely true because I have the ten bum traveler 39 in my work truck and if given the opportunity I toss it in here and there.
