Tenkara Iwana Rod - 12ft - 360cm

The Iwana is the classic all-around tenkara rod and a great value. The progressive taper, ultra-light weight, and tip action provide balance for great battles, even with smaller fish. Quality and strength are by no means compromised, and landing large fish is manageable. The original choice of many early tenkara adopters outside of Japan, the Iwana is still a great choice to help you fall in love with tenkara.  

It packs to a small compact size of 20 1/2 inches, which makes it easy to fit in small packs. 

These rods have a beautiful "glossy carbon" finish, allowing you to see the high-quality carbon fiber material through the glossy finish.

Best use: budget friendly; trout under 20 inches; most fish species; all water
