Tenkara fishing with its short, fixed line has taught me a lot about the advantages of fishing at close range. Even before my introductory forays into Tenkara I was aware of many of the advantages of fishing a short line but often tended to fish at too great a distance due to my fear of scaring the fish that I was targeting. However I now appreciate more fully the cogent reasons for fishing at close range (ideally 30’/10m or less). So what are they?
There are of course some disadvantages of close range fishing:
So there you have it; many years ago I was a wack it to the horizon guy whether fly fishing or fishing for carp with coarse gear; nowadays I fish at close range when ever possible & I catch far more fish.
1. 10’ 2 weight Sunray Volition & 1 weight Micro Thin Jeremy Lucas line, a perfect combination for delicate close range fishing, but also capable of fishing at distance when required.
2. Sunray ZERO rod & Micro Nymph line, another great setup for delicate close range work.
3. Sunray ZERO rod & 10lb/0.25mm/1x Pink Fluorocarbon Tenkara casting line 25’ long, the ultimate in super-delicate, close range Western fly fishing gear.
4. The Sunray ZERO rod at 11’ 6” with 0.25mm Fluorocarbon casting line plus 4’ of tippet & a small dry fly, in action on the upper Tees where close range fishing is vastly more effective than fishing at longer range.
5. The author camouflaged & keeping a low profile whilst fishing at close range.
