Just joined thanks I live in Brisbane,Queensland. The last place lived in was Wingerworth,Derbyshire 1969 I have been reading your forums a week now and find the information on this new to me Tenkara fascinating. Just ordered this week an Amago rod and look forward to it arriving in a week or two. So I will be following your adventures to help me get some knowledge .

Hi guys Thanks for the welcome Big change from Derbyshire and the Tenkara word is spreading in Australia I have been fly fishing on and off for many years mainly for bass catch and release in our local creeks and dams,the big thing for me is keeping the fly in the target area and having to mend the line often.
What I can see is the easier way of not having as much line I the water and easily recasting the fly back to the zone with long rod,that's where I am now,still waiting for my Amago to turn up.
Main fish in Brisbane would bass,but I am also keen to try salt water for whiting and flathead both good eating fish. I do travel down to NSW around 1000 km away and fish for trout and have caught and enjoyed some good fish.
Looking forward to the change in my fishing I have a lot to learn from you guys and gals

Looking forward to hearing about your downunder tenkara exploits.
All the best Stevie.
