Since Tenkara was introduced to the United States in 2009, it has become a rapidly growing trend, and many anglers have adapted the traditional Japanese techniques for waters in the United States. This comprehensive book covers the current state of Tenkara-the best flies, a rundown of equipment (it is no longer simple), essential techniques, and advice from anglers around the country.
