..........sub-freezing temperatures?

Brett Humphries, in Bishop, California, just heard that some locals down around Mammoth Lakes, California were using Tenkara

rods for fishing small dry flies, midges/may flies, in sub-freezing conditions on some of those trout streams down that way that are

open year round now.

Bill,
The size of trout landed in some of the videos is
truly impressive. I think Guide Lance Gray
still offers a one day Tenkara school.
Best to all,

Brett said the attraction to the Tenkara system up in the high elevation sub-freezing temperatures in the winter the line would

freeze in the guides in most other traditional fly fishing outfits.
