About

Tenkara Angler is the fixed line fly fishing community’s hub for smart information and entertainment. Our tenkara blog covers angling lifestyle, destination, tactics, gear, art, conservation, as well as wonderful creative essay. With an editorial staff of over 50 years of combined fixed line fly fishing experience, as well as hundreds of “community-sourced” articles from anglers across the globe, this is your resource for all things tenkara and fixed-line fly fishing.

We would love you to contribute an original article, essay, or photograph for publication consideration. If you are interested, please check out the online submission information HERE.

Tenkara Angler was founded as a free online “flipbook” style magazine in Fall 2015, running quarterly through Spring 2020. While the quarterly magazine is no longer, we still continue produce an annual print issue. All of the prior content has since migrated to this tenkara blog website, with much more original content being released weekly.

Current & back issues of Tenkara Angler can be found for FREE HERE.

Paper print & electronic PDF downloads are available for purchase via our Blurb bookstore
