The Iwana is our classic all-around tenkara rod and at a great value. The progressive taper, ultra-light weight, and tip action provides for great battles, even with smaller fish. Quality and strength are by no means compromised, and landing large fish is not unheard of. 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 a day pack

These rods have a beautiful “glossy carbon” finish, where you can see the high-quality carbon fiber material through a nice glossy finish.
Made in China with Japanese materials.
