JMC Imersion Tenkara Rod 360 - 7:3

The first tenkara anglers around two to three hundred years ago were professional fishermen who either fed their own families with their catch or sold some of it. The equipment used by the original professional tenkara fishermen was simple: rods made of bamboo, lines made of twisted horsehair and the simplest artificial flies made of natural materials. Tenkara is usually fished only in the upper reaches of a river, where the water surface is not too large and small pockets form between the stones. While fishing, the rod is held so steeply that only the leader and the fly touch the surface of the water. With short, fast casts, the fly can be held precisely in the various pockets of the stream, exactly where the salmonids are waiting for insects. Tenkara is an exciting fishery where the experience of nature is paramount.

The JMC Imersion Tenkara rod 360 - 7:3 is one of these rods, for an exciting stalk on the trout stream. The rod with a total length of 3.60 m has a 7:3 action. This means that the action of the rod has been divided into a ratio of 70 % to 30 %. The lower 70 % is more powerful and stronger, which is particularly important for larger fish so that you are not powerless in the fight. The upper 30 %, on the other hand, are very soft and sensitive. This enables a fine, discreet presentation, but also brilliant bite detection when fishing with a small nymph. In addition, the soft tip ensures that one swing of the short line is enough to reposition the flies. The Tenkara has 9 sections that interlock with each other, thus providing the classic telescopic function. It is also ingenious that a replacement tip is included with the purchase of an Imersion. It is not uncommon for the fine, long rods to get caught on the tree and, in the worst case, the tip breaks. The replacement tip is quickly replaced in a DIY process and the day's fishing can continue. The cork of the rod is made of AA quality and has already been sanded to an ergonomic shape so that every Tenkara fisherman has a good feel for the fine rod.

If you want to immerse yourself in the world of tenkara fishing, the Imersion is the right choice for you!
