My wakata 13' arrived last week. I have yet to try it out. I have never fly fished before and thought the tenkara would be a great start. I hope it performs well.

Is it ok to use a spinning tackle or a tenkara rod at ho'omaluhia botanical garden?

I ordered a tenkara wakata. It's not supposEd to be as good as the amago. Which I really Wont be able to tell since it's my first tenkara. It was made in japan and I wonder if it differs because others are made on china.

I was watching one of the tenkara videos and the guy pulled in the bottom segment to cast a shorter pole. Then pulls it back put when hooks fish. Have you guys ever tried that?

Stan,
The episode of lgf had you guys on the lake. I hope you got to watch it. Nice peacocks

I'm a newbee to the lake. Only fished a few times. Sometimes trolling works with lures. I will definetly say it's harder to cast from a kayak. But we make due. We have a hard time anchoring by shore. So we will try to coast along side the shore next time. Maybe after you get ur motor we can tow our ...

I feel ur pain. My son and I have a tandem kayak and have only gone up to bluegill bay. I can only imagine how hard it is to paddle a inflatable. At least my son or I can take a break while the other paddles. But we do get a lot of exercise. Do you guys catch anything trolling? I hope you get that m...

Do you think they eat them or sell them? I've heard in Cali warden go to Chinatown and look for fish that are Poached. Then the seller must show proof of where or who they bought the fish from. If it's not legit, they must pay the price for poaching. Poaching is a crime and offenders should be punis...
