Stirring the Tenkara Pot – Episode 36 Level Line Podcast

We released our latest podcast a week early! Figured with all the upcoming 4th of July travels and long weekends, it may bring some entertainment to a road trip or a lazy afternoon…

In Episode 36 of the Level Line Podcast, Tenkara Angler editors Mike Agneta, Matt Sment, and Anthony Naples kick things off with summer updates before Anthony decides to stir the pot, and from there, the panel dives headfirst into some of tenkara’s most debated topics. Is tenkara simplicity overrated? What actually counts as “real” tenkara? What are your biggest tenkara pet peeves? Things stay lively, occasionally spicy, and always fun.

The episode wraps with the results of a recent Tenkara Angler reader and listener survey covering what the community enjoys most and wants to see more of going forward. Stick around for it, there are a few surprises in there worth hearing. We hope you enjoy this latest episode!

The audio should soon be found pretty much anywhere you find podcasts, including Apple PodcastsSpotify, YouTube MusicPocket CastsTuneIn, etc… Just search “Tenkara Angler Level Line” and it’s sure to come up!
