Field Notes

This is a traditional tenkara kebari fly used for simple upstream presentations and controlled drifts. It works well in moving water where the angler wants to rely on line control and fly movement rather than a heavily weighted pattern.

Pros

  • Simple, versatile tenkara pattern
  • Good for precise drift and manipulation
  • Sold in a practical 3-fly pack

Cons

  • Not a specialized hatch-matching pattern
  • Limited to size 12 only
