Description

In Episode 17 of the Tenkara Angler Level Line Podcast, Mike, Matt, & Anthony touch on some current events in their fishing lives.

Anthony discusses some learnings he's made fishing the same water consistently in May. Matt recaps the Driftless Tenkara Campout. Mike frets over where the "too much vs. too little" line is drawn when it comes to packing for an upcoming trip.

Finally, Anthony spends some extended time with Roanoke, Virginia based angler, Mike Garrison. Mike discusses his entry into tenkara, why he enjoys it so much, the similarities (and differences) between a euro-nymphing & fixed line (tenkara) nymphing setup, as well as the value in fishing with guides.
