Tenkara Fishing With Tom Davis & Matt Sment, I was fishing with the IceWING & Ragnarok 400 rods
Unfortunately I apparently such and recording when I am fishing with other people, too busy jabbering and watching. So I didn't really get good video while I was fishing with Matt and Tom so most of this video is when I was going down a stretch of creek by myself, sorry about that.
Had a lot of fun fishing the prototype IceWING rod again, I found myself actually using the zoom function quite a bit on this tight creek while fishing down stream of Tom and Matt.
Hope you enjoy!

High Mountain Idaho Cutthroat Trout Creek with Ragnarok 400 rod 7/18/2024
Переглядів 8472 місяці тому
Had some fun with the DRAGONtail Ragnarok 400 tenkara rod at one of my favorite creek systems in Idaho. The water was still a bit higher than normal, about 6 inches higher, but still managed to find some great trout, some of the bigger cutthroat I have caught in this creek. #fishing #tenkara #tenkarafishing #dragontailtenkara #flyfishing #idaho #idahofishing #idahoflyfishing #tetontenkara #cree...

Tom Davis found a new creek to fish that he liked and was kind enough to take me back with him to explore it some more. It was during a cold front in early summer so the fishing was not hot but good enough with some great fish to be caught. I was fishing the DRAGONtail Ragnarok 400 Tenkara Rod which was excellent for this creek. I was also using a 12.5ft Shogun furled line which helped to cast ...

Jason Klass (of TenkaraTalk) is the original creator of the Ichiban Kebari based off of the Takayama Sakasa Kebari with its two glass beads added at the head that give it an almost bubble like affect that make it a sweet looking sakasa tenkara fly that I love to tie.

    I just use my old floating fly line and cut it to various lengths - works great - i attach it to the lilian with a short piece of flyline Backing (nail knot) - and also have a short piece of backing (nail knot ) - with a tippet ring to attach my tippet -

    • @DRAGONtailTenkara
      @DRAGONtailTenkara 11 днів тому

      This is something we have seen people do quite bit, I like the idea of a short piece of backing at the end with a tippet ring tied on. The Light PVC Tenkara Line we sell will be a bit lighter than the running line from old fly lines if you would like something similar but lighter.

    Awesome video Brent, please keep them coming. When and if the new prototype line keepers become available from Dragontail, please put them in the newsletter to let people know they are available. I use the O-ring style line keepers and I like them, but the current design using only one O-ring tend to slip allowing the line to come loose.

      It is an 11ft level line with 4ft tippet on a 13ft rod so I think the camera is part of the illusion of making it look longer than it is.

      For connecting your level line to your tippet, I just tie an overhand stopper knot at the end of my level line and tie my tippet on just like I do to a hook right behind that stopper knot. You can tie on a tippet ring as well if you have them.

    Last year I gave tenkara fishing a try after I had been in a car accident and found my balance so wonky I couldn't do it. I've gotten better by a fair amount now, thinking I may give it another go, it looks like such fun. Any pointers? How much line do you put out?

    • @DRAGONtailTenkara
      @DRAGONtailTenkara 2 місяці тому

      When starting out I would go with a main line the same length of the rod or a foot shorter than the rod and then add 4ft of tippet, this will be easier to cast and find your rhythm.

    Anytime a product video does NOT show the rod extended, up close, where the customer can see the lillian, the sections, the finish, then they are hiding something like a weakness, or a part that is questionable. I would snatch this rod up in a heartbeat, probably two of them, except you do not show the rod extended and up close and that sends off the alarm bells. Get your act together and maybe you can sell more rods.

    • @DRAGONtailTenkara
      @DRAGONtailTenkara 2 місяці тому

      I could be wrong but I don't remember seeing those things in other tenkara rod product videos and if they were you probably can't tell the quality through a video. If you ordered the TalonMINI through us and you didn't like it you can return for a full refund, we are not hiding anything. Search our name on Google or Facebook groups and you will see our customer service is beyond good and people love our products, that speaks much louder than a close up in a video for me. All the extended sections (except the handle section) are a matte black finish to keep the paint thin so we can make the taper very tight without creating pressure points you might get with a gloss finish on a tight tapered mini tenkara rod like this. The matte black finish is not exciting looking but it reduces potential problems mini tenkara rods sometimes have.
