    The "click" is slight imperfection in sections alignment. I have no such thing in Furaibo TF39 (non zoom). But I have it in Dragontail Hellbender. In my observation, it doesn't affect rod castability or ability to fight fish. I landed few good size rainbows in Hellbender , and the rod didn't collapse or break

    This is the kind of environment where you throw some 8lb tippet on there so you dont break off in the grass. The fish are so aggressive that they wont be thrown off by the large tippet.

    Home waters for me, but never caught a Rainbow nor Tiger in there! Wow! There used to be lots of Cutts, but the Browns from the main fork have worked their way up and taken over. There are Brookies up high in the beaver dams at the very top of the canyon (just below the dugway), so it is very likely those Tigers are natural! I can't imagine DWR planting Tigers in there with a population of cutts already getting suppressed. The rainbow are anyone's guess. They'd have to have traveled at least 15 miles upstream. Not impossible, but why? More likely bucket biologists. Nice work, almost a trout slam.

      I totally agree. It doesn't make any sense to pay such prices for just a simple collapsible rod. You can buy a good trout ranger + reel set for similar prices and you can do more, better, easier, more convenient and with more options. The whole thing about tenkara is more like a toy than an actually useful tool.

    It's the every other Saturday... Time for another Tenkara vid by Tristan! 🎣😄 The fish at the beginning weren't necessarily "dumb", but 'hardened'; proximity to the Campground and its pressure made them weary. That's why they sent the 'scout' out to get hooked. Since most happy campers don't tend to wander upstream, the decreased pressure opened up the possibilities and you caught more fish. 😁

    We've had probably more fish kills from algae, than mining. Tons of heavy metals are settling in reservoirs. We get arsenic drinking water from agriculture, really! Activity in the rhizosphere allows acid to chemically weather the rock, freeing nutrients that feed plants, composting, mulching, and manuring allows it to accumulate over time.

  • @user-hb2gh6wh7e
    @user-hb2gh6wh7e 12 днів тому

    Former mines (placer activity) are not problematic at this point. I would say the opposite, that someone in the 19th Century built a spring creek out of igneous rock. The porosity of the material allows for a thermal exchange, where water flows thru the mountain instead of over the soil. The porosity contributes to the area being kinda snake-laden, in my opinion. Sometimes the placer mining activity is ideal because the canyon wall would otherwise meet the other canyon wall mid-stream, at times it is not possible to do more than hear the water, or your have to walk on nymphs and spawning redds. Most of these mining works are barely visible, until you profile the landform with shaded relief in a GIS /GPS app.
