My Other No Wheels (or No Reels) Passion

A couple of pictures from this weekend from one of my other passions that has a lot of connections to my traditional archery journey. I have been fly fishing for nearly 40 years. About eight years ago I discovered Tenkara and haven’t looked back. It is a method of fly fishing that uses a fixed length line (think single string) and no reel (think no wheels). It is extremely well suited to the small mountain streams I like to fish. One of the other aspects that links it to traditional archery is you have to get close and really think about your presentation set up because of the fixed length line.
