Tenkara fly fishing Class

June 2nd, 2023

Join Guide Landon Lipke for a clinic aimed at the beginner or intermediate tenkara angler who wants to step it up to the next level and increase the effectiveness of an already highly effective form of fishing.

Tenkara is the Japanese art of fixed-line fly fishing. The word translates to “fishing from the skies” or “fishing from heaven” and was developed more than 400 years ago for the mountain streams of Japan.

Using ultra-portable yet delicate rods, beautifully tied flies, and a stealthy approach, Tenkara fly fishing has rapidly grown in popularity among North Carolina’s brook trout anglers. DRO’s own Landon Lipke is generally regarded as Western North Carolina’s Tenkara Expert, and he offers Tenkara fishing lessons and Tenkara fly-tying lessons through the shop.

The class size will be limited to six people for $30 per participant. Call the shop to sign up for this class.
