It’s here, the Fall 2019 issue of Tenkara Angler magazine has been published and is ready for review.

While the submissions came in at a bit of a slower pace, I was really happy with the end result. I think you will be too.

There are some really strong tenkara-themed articles from the 3-headed Adam (Klagsbrun, Rieger, and Trahan) as well as new author, Brian Lindsay. Plus, Jim Tignor returned with some new digital art.

On the essay side, Dennis Vander Houwen, Andy Vinnes, and Mark Phillips each contributed entries that touch on tenkara, but also hit on more important, largely personal narratives.

There’s some fixed-line goodies too! Rory Glennie explains how to fish an estuary, Brad Trumbo successfully targets salmon, and Bob Long once again tackles smallmouth bass!

Finally, we had a few reader submitted images that sort of stood alone, so I created a special section just to feature them. I think this might become a recurring section, so don’t be shy about sending in your photos for the winter issue!

As usual, the Summer issue will be available as an e-magazine over at Issuu, HERE.

And also available for sale as a physical magazine and PDF download in the Blurb bookstore, HERE.

Enjoy!

I hope everybody has been having an incredible summer! Just getting back from a mini-getaway to Colorado myself, recent memories of boulder strewn streams, high altitude lakes, and greenback cutthroat trout can’t help but bring a grin to my face. If your summer has been full of fishing, I’m certain you’ve been smiling a lot as well.

As such, I wanted to take the opportunity today to remind everyone that the submission period for the Fall 2019 issue of Tenkara Angler is officially open, a perfect time to share those experiences with the larger fixed-line fishing community.

While the submission process never technically closed, I like to make these posts about a month prior to the deadline, in this case September 13th, 2019.

As always, this issue should reflect the interests of the tenkara community at large, so as long as the content – articles, photos, etc… – is tenkara, fixed-line, or conservation themed, all is fair game.

Submissions can be sent to mike@tenkaraangler.com, and more information on the submission process can be found HERE.
