Tenko Fishing At Bethany... Panfish and a Bass.

Went to Bethany Lakes for more Tenko Fishing.  Mini-Mum2 did well with a Bass and several Sunfish/Bluegill caught.  Most of the Sunfish were small and the Bass went about 12" in size, regardless... beats striking out!

HubPages Article - "Tenko Fishing"

Been getting a few requests about Tenko Fishing and the hand poured plastic worms (Tenko Worms) we have been using.  To answer them, decided to post a new HubPages article - "Tenko Fishing"!  Check it out when you get a chance!

Lost a Bass, Caught a Bass, Caught Bluegill/Sunfish,... More Tenko Fishing!

Went back to Bethany for more Tenko Fishing.  Tied the Mini-Mum1 and soon hooked, fought, and lost a decent Bass.  Should bring a net when Tenko Fishing....  Switched to the Mini-Mum2 and caught a few Bluegill and Sunfish, then on the way out, fished the Mini-Mum1 again and hooked and landed a little Bass!

Tenko Fishing Again... Three Bass Tonight!

Tenko Fishing again tonight.  Caught three Bass, did lose a fourth Bass, but who is counting... also caught several Sunfish/Bluegill.  Water level continues to drop at Bethany.  Luckily, the fish are staying within casting distance of the Tenkara Rod.  Used the Mini-Mum1 to catch the first Bass; all others were caught with the Mini-Mum2.

Caught Three Sunfish/Bluegill and Finally a Bass While Tenko Fishing!

Caught three Sunfish/Bluegill and finally a Bass while Tenko Fishing.  Caught them on the "Mini-Mum2", the smaller of the two Tenko Worms we hand poured.  Did get a decent Bass to strike the "Mini-Mum1" but it came off the hook while trying to land it.  Still a good trip!

Tenko Fishing Gets a Sunfish and Two Shellcrackers!

Did another field test of the hand poured Tenko Worms at Bethany this evening.  Caught a little Sunfish on the Mini-Mum2 and two decent size Shellcrackers.  One took the Mini-Mum2; the other went for the Mini-Mum1.

Had several Bass take the lures but they quickly threw the hook.  Still working on a better hook to use for this type of fishing.  Till then,... will keep woking on it!

Tenkara and Senko Worms - Tenko Fishing Anyone?

Been itching too flex the Tenkara Rod but have been side-tracked by Bass and hand pouring  our version of a Senko Worm - the "Half-Quatro".  So, to enjoy the two, why not combine them and call it Tenko Fishing - small plastic worms fished on a Tenkara Rod!

Since Tenkara Fishing uses small fishing flies, opted to  modify the "Half-Quatro" to a smaller version.  Made two variants of the "Half-Quatro".  Going to call them the "Mini-Mum1" and "Mini-Mum2" for ease of reference.

Tested them out this morning at Bethany Lakes.... water levels are low but the fish remain near the banks and well within casting range of the Tenkara Rod (at least in the morning).  Had several Bass strike the Worms but lost them while bringing them in.  Used small Jig Hooks in lieu of a Bass Worm Hook; will need to come up with a better hook to use else risk more lost Bass.

Made a change after a break off of a decent Bass.... Go figure, only poured two Worms, so was down to one Worm.  Opted to fish the remaining Worm wacky rigged; had more strikes and misses.  This kept up until the Worm split in two.

Not to be left without a lure in the Field, made do and tied on a smaller jig hook and fished using halves!  Good thing.... Bluegill, Sunfish really liked it!

Had a fun time Tenko Fishing this morning.  Will need to come up with a better hook to use, else am happy with the Worms - "Mini-Mum1" and "Mini-Mum2"!  Will need to pour more for the next round.
