I think if people took their time instead of rushing to the end results, WORK on the good fundamentals, PRACTICE and be patient with the progress; then eventually they would become great anglers... 

So what are those fundamentals?

  • Here are 16 clear lessons to sharpen your fundamental tenkara skills where the game is won & lost (especially on hard waters with spooky and "educated" fish)
  • Discover what it takes to deliver (and control) a wet fly in a "topwater" style with finesse, subtlety and accuracy - to avoid spooking wary fish and to create the most enticing offer that can draw those fish to come up in the water to take your fly...

Quick-view Highlights

On-stream Video Training (with pupils) 

Three of our most accomplished guiding clients received a unique in-person coaching session from Go Ishii in Japan. They got to ask the questions you're likely to need answers to yourself! The demo - and Go's answers are captured in this "as it happened" video.

16-lesson Illustrated Course

Ensuring you can translate the video training into practice. Go's teaching is based around absolute fundamentals. This means that it is essential not to miss the key points that make or break your chances on stream. The lessons aim to greatly reduce the chances of you accidentally skipping over vital concepts.

Go's favourite mobile-hackle "condor" & stiff-hackle kebari (fly patterns)

Detailed tying demonstrations filmed in Japan with Go's commentary and "cliff notes" for two flies that have accounted for thousands of fish in notoriously difficult rivers.

Go's Golden 10 "quick fire tips" to help set you up for success

Reinforcing core lessons: Go's approach is a continual refinement of fundamentals. This "top 10" checklist helps increase the chances you'll retain and apply these skills on stream (since no tactics can ever work if you forget to use them)


Long rods and light lines need particular skills to handle correctly (particularly when managing long lines in the wind)...

Learning fundamental line-positioning, management and casting skills is what separates out the best tenkara anglers from the "also rans" on tough streams 

During a total of 6 intensive research trips spread over 5 years, we have gradually absorbed (and are now better able to appreciate) what the best tenkara anglers in Japan are actually DOING to create their improved results

The principles Go demonstrated (and continually stressed to us and our clients) are a powerful distillation of those common factors found in the great anglers we met and studied. Those insights have helped us in our own journeys of improvement - and we hope to share as much of those beneficial secrets as we can to everyone who hasn't had quite the same opportunities to study them first hand. Our aim is to NOT "pull the ladder up" behind ourselves!
