You just have to do it. I have been following your blog, nice to see Tenkara catching-on in Europe.TenkaraOnTheFlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382490702643300295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-33046049867459299352011-11-18T13:09:23.391-07:002011-11-18T13:09:23.391-07:00I'm very happy to read a news about Chessman c...I'm very happy to read a news about Chessman canyon, especialy with Tenkara rods.<br />In September 2000 have spend a fishing trip in Colorado, and I keep unforgetable souvenirs of fly-fishing in this scenic river.<br />I remenber that most of time we don't need to make longs casts to get trout up to 22 inch, Tenkara will be very appropriate there.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12451967756807188651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-67666565850007863712011-11-04T11:59:23.923-06:002011-11-04T11:59:23.923-06:00Joel - you're absolutely right!
Chris - have ...Joel - you're absolutely right!<br /><br />Chris - have you tried one with a longer handle yet? How is it?<br /><br />Jason - always nice to get out and fish with you, regardless of catching fish. I agree, the hike was streneous and my old bones and muscles hurt for a few days...<br /><br />Kiwi - thanks! Looks like you have to come out here soon!<br /><br />Peter - thanks! The canyon is tough fishing but it's doable with Tenkara. <br /><br />Alex - we fished downstream since we hiked-in from the top and got out at the bottom. However, due to the topography of the canyon the how the trail follows the river, you wouldn't fish upstream in the "classic" way, you would hike to a spot, fish it, then hike to another spot. And yes, Daniel fished with an 18ft long line plus tippet I believe. He made it look very effortless.TenkaraOnTheFlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382490702643300295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-44228280082054167642011-11-04T10:20:38.209-06:002011-11-04T10:20:38.209-06:00Wait wait - you guys fished downstream?

It certainly was a tough day of fishing--both from a fishing and physical perspective. My hands got pretty torn up on the rocks from climbing (and slipping) up and down the steep banks. Next time, I'm brining wading boots with studs for better traction. I found myself using my new Ito more for a hiking staff than fishing rod!Jason Klass - Tenkara Talkhttp://www.tenkaratalk.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5411536621710336282.post-35752831687537696872011-11-03T19:46:16.762-06:002011-11-03T19:46:16.762-06:00Karel,
