In Episode 24 of the Tenkara Angler Level Line podcast Mike, Anthony, Bill, and Matt discuss their preseason preparations for the upcoming spring tenkara fishing season. They cover essential topics regarding the three major categories of gear - rods, flies, and lines - focusing on rod care and preventative maintenance, storage solutions, cleaning techniques, common causes of rod breakage, and best practices for new anglers. Once done with gear, the conversation turns to fishing preparation, including scouting techniques, knot tying, journaling, and personal goal setting.Show Notes & Links:00:07 - Introductions00:34 - Pre-Season Preparation Overview02:03 - Rod Care and Maintenance Practices- Anthony's Video: Tenkara Tips - Tenkara Rod Maintenance- Bill's Air Blaster12:34 - Preventative Maintenance and Spare Parts14:29 - Common Causes of Rod Breakage20:30 - Best Practices for New Anglers24:17 - Dealing with Stuck Sections26:26 - Rod Socks and Lost Tip Caps- Universal Tip Caps27:37 - Fishing Stories of Broken Rods33:09 - Flies, Tying, & Organizing Fly Boxes44:02 - Line Management and Preparation- Level Line Podcast: Exploring Tenkara Lines- DRAGONtail Line Winders48:58 - Scouting Water & Gathering Intel- onX for property lines51:16 - Renewing Your License, Bill the Outlaw52:12 - Keeping a Fishing Journal55:30 - Setting Personal Goals for Fishing57:55 - Understanding Insects and Ecosystems- The Bug Book- Hatches II- Upper Midwest Hatches01:04:35 - Which Way Did Bill Go?01:06:17 - Practice Casting and Knot Tying01:10:33 - Closing RemarksWant to see more?
