Here’s a stream that is near my home, but I rarely fish it. It’s not really my favorite type of stream, but it does teach one stealth, precision casting, and humility.

Yep, never seen you on a stream like that. How does the Prim compare to a rod like the Nissin 395 Honryu?

I make a new tenkara video every week and don’t always feel the need to post here, but the stream from today’s video was just so pretty that I wanted to share.

[![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/e-29ZsqRkHc/maxresdefault.jpg "Is This the Best Cheap Beginner Tenkara Rod? (Tenkara Fly Fishing)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-29ZsqRkHc)

[(Direct YouTube link)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-29ZsqRkHc)

Also, I tried out the Dragontail Shadowfire 365 for the first time in this video. I felt that it was a surprisingly good rod. It casts great. And while it’s heavier than a Japanese rod of the same length, the weight is balanced well enough that it doesn’t _feel_ heavy. It’s the best rod at $100 or under that I’ve tried.

Hi!

Nice to meet all of you here.

My name is Martynas, I’m a fairly new Tenkara student, found this philosophy less than 2 years ago. I also make ambient music and short films of nature scenes, among other interests and family life.

In Lithuania (Northern Europe) where I live we have no mountains (the highest hill is 294 meters above sea level), so true Tenkara might be difficult to practice here. But fortunately, because of what a giant glacier did to the land during the last ice age, we have some small rivers, streams and creeks with a moderate gradient, and they are full of brown trout and some grayling. Also it might be interesting to mention that Lithuania has biggest Atlantic Salmon in Europe because of the longest and hardest river system suitable for spawning.

When I started learning Tenkara I found zero information about it in Lithuanian language. So I started sharing photos on Instagram and talking about it, trying to find the others. And a month or so ago I started a local vlog on Youtube with a goal to make a small collection of videos that document my path of learning Tenkara and to do some educational work at the same time. Because for me Tenkara is less about fishing and more about connecting with nature, having less stuff, knowing the fish, knowing the river, and appreciating the wilderness while it’s there.

My Tenkara is not yet pure Japanese Tenkara as I am still transitioning from western fly fishing and euronymphing. Yet I fish weightless flies almost 100% of the time. Not because it is the purism that I seek, but because they work so well in almost all streams here. No need for dries and almost no need for bead heads. To my surprise traditional Japanese method using weightless flies is perfect (perfect!) here in Lithuania, especially in places where water gradient is medium or small.

Here are a few experimental trips, maybe it will be interesting to see how this fishing method can be adapted in countries that have no mountain streams but still very beautiful European nature.

Thanks a lot to many of you who share your knowledge online, this is often a hard (yet fun) work, and it is very appreciated.

👋 Martynas

I’m no good at catching big trout. I need more practice, but they are not what I like to pursue. How about you?

I decided to start taping some of my fishing trips. They’ll primarily be in conjunction with wilderness backpacking trips in the summer, but I decided to start creating a few videos now. I’m sorry the audio isn’t the greatest…it was windy and my external mic is on order. I did a little tactical nymphing and even used an indicator for awhile (I may get struck by lightning for that).

Edit: I meant to give a shout out to Dr Tom (Teton Tenkara) and Tristan (Tenkara Addict) for answering my questions regarding getting started with videos.

One of the problems with the Superglues is that you only get One Try as superglue will not bond to itself. So if you do not get a good bond on the first try, all the Superglue residue needs to be sanded away before attempting to Re-Glue the joint, Again. Superglue is also brittle and does not bend well. The superglues with a rubber component added may be an improved product in that area. Although I have not glued on any lilians on with it, I have had better luck using E6000 Glue, which is clear, transparent, waterproof, remains flexible, and has a 6000 pounds per square inch bursting strength. It is not good for emergency field repairs as it requires 24 hours for curing, and Maximum bond strength may not be reached for up to 72 hours. But it is the best thing I have found for holding rubber feet on aluminum wading poles and re-gluing on the soles on wading shoes and wading boots.

Here is a Japanese language casting video, showing the ultimate Bow & Arrow Cast last. While the language barrier may be a problem for English speaking viewers, I believe you will find the video well worth watching:

Here is my belated channel intro. I would appreciate any support to spread the word. My videos will be based on my solo backpacking trips in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness (Southern MT/Northern WY) where I visit VERY remote areas.
