Took my son Leo down to the Clark fork for his first experience with a Tenkara Rod. For those of you that haven’t fished one, they are a GREAT way to introduce a kid to fly fishing. They load with ease and you have no line to mess with. They also teach a young angler to wait and watch rather than trying for more distance.
Perfect Tenkara water on the Clark Fork – short up stream casts
Got one Dad NOW what do I do??
Hooked and lost a bunch but, this one made for a happy 6 year old
Starting at about 1:00 there were 3 or 4 different mayflies coming off, but every fish we showed this bug jumped on it. Like the reports said, “over size, over size, OVER size”!!
