![[#Tenkara Success 🔥] (For Full Article + Video --see link in bio)Being an avid angler and #flyfishing guide the desire to share my passion with my son is only natural.As I started to introduce him to fly fishing I quickly pinpointed some pretty major barriers. Keeping his attention was one, but more importantly, there were physical limitations –he simply isn’t strong enough to manage a fly rod.I had the idea to try and introduce him to fly fishing via Tenkara and it has been a major blessing.

The 3 reasons I am a huge fan of introducing kids to fly fishing through Tenkara (For Full Article + Video --see link in bio)1) Lightweight rod. The lightweight rod is crucial. Little kids just simply are not strong enough to manage a fly rod. Whether it is Tenkara or a traditional fly rod they will most likely need both hands on the rod when fishing2) No reel or fly line. No reel means no fly line & no fly line means no casting–these are all good things when trying to teach kids how to fly fish.3) Easy presentation. Long rod = better presentation = more fish! With a Tenkara rod and the modular leader I built for him, he can easily flip his flies into the water column and high stick through the current. This creates a stellar presentation that is going to produce trout.More fish creates excitement and enthusiasm which inspires the child to want to go again.Keeping kids inspired is another barrier in and of itself.(For Full Article + Video --see link in bio)](https://anchorfly.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
