Tenkara fly tying the Ishigaki Kebari

Here's a video on how to tie the Ishigaki Kebari, taught to us by renowned tenkara angler Dr. Hisao Ishigaki. Tenkara flies are very simple to tie trout flies, and work particularly well in mountain stream fly-fishing. In tenkara, the Japanese method of fly-fishing, only rod, line and fly are used. No reel.

Really like this fly and Tenkara fishing in general. I have to say though, having a serious case of OCD, that hackle fiber that got trapped at the last part of the winding, right before the whip finish was driving me crazy.

This was a great beginners kit for a great price. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxKRURvLsu9Vvyw7gIuvt8FsApoQNCdz-1 Its given us a huge variety to test out and see what works well and what we like to use. Majority of the flies have stayed together well, but some of the rainbow warriors did unravel after catching a few blue gill. All in all, this was a great kit and are so happy with the purchase and value for money.

That it, gee's you can get any simpler than that, some thread a hook and a hackle. I love flies i can tie in less than two min start to finish.

[@brucedelaplain7138]

It is simple, but the San Juan Worm is even simpler. No hackle, no body, just a worm-length piece of chenille tied to the hook with a few wraps of thread. Pink is a good color.

[@ArkRed1]

Are you weighting the head of the hook with black wire? What size and kind of hook are you using?

[@MIXIX333v2]

Hi! Can you use Tenkara flies in regular fly fishing?

[@MrTenkara]

Yes, and I definitely use western flies with my Tenkara rod

[@Redmech80]

What make and model is this hook, what sizes should a person tie it in.

[@flyfishingeasternsierras8664]

Redmech80 tie 8-14 and sometimes but rarely 16

I am curious about the type of thread only. It looks large diameter. Been tying since 1990. Quit fishing for a long time now I am back at it. I have been tying 1 feather flies or 1 material does its but not with a specific style. I enjoy learning Tenkara. Simple is fun.

[@flyfishingeasternsierras8664]

James McCutcheon many people use sewing thread for a larger body

[@MrBamboozombie]

What type of hackle are you using? I've had success with Hungarian Partridge.

[@davidgunter633]

What type of tackle are you using

[@tenkarausa]

We are using tenkara rods, lines and flies. You can learn more at www.tenkarausa.com

[@davidgunter633]

Sorry that was a typo I meant Hackle

[@tenkarausa]

@@davidgunter633 Ah! The Ishigaki flies are usually tied with rooster hackle.

[@JEMHull-gf9el]

So basically an old traditional English spider tied fibers forward.. cool.

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

I don't know why you jerky the hook around so much, well I do know........

[@darthvaider4347]

"Tenkara fly", it's a regular "fly" for a "fly fishing".

なぜ日本語ではなしているのか

[@fishingwithjohn8712]

Tenkra is a cane pole

Codio che merdaio!

[@thorbonham6119]

Tankara ... For the lazy man ..

[@stringtwister7654]

That's a terrible looking fly

[@thomass6665]

You must have a lot of time

[@hanau73]

Can you use regular flies(fly fishing) for tenkara ?

[@gesman5000]

FishingFairbanks Course you can in fact dry fly fishing is quite fun on a furled line. Everything unweighted works perfectly for all tenkara rods but you may need a special tenkara rod for weighted nymphing.

[@MiddleEarthTenkara]

FishingFairbanks I use regular flies all of the time. It's great fun.

[@dtffishingmi]

You can Tenkara fish with anything that your equipment will support. Throw a live bluegill on there if you have the rod and line for it :)
