Keiho Tenkara NR

Shimano's Keiho Tenkara NR is a series of two Tenkara rods designed for precision fishing, featuring a highly responsive tip that ensures quick and accurate casts. Its main characteristic is the tip action, which is set at an 8:2 ratio, much sharper compared to models like the Tempyo Tenkara, which offers a more balanced action. This particular action allows for extremely precise casting to specific targets, facilitating accurate positioning of the fly. The Spiral X construction reduces oscillations and twists during the casting phase, enabling exceptionally precise casts and a direct feel of the strike. It features a hybrid EVA and cork grip, with EVA providing adequate cushioning and cork offering a warm, natural feel. This combination reduces strain on the body during long fishing sessions, enhancing comfort even when making repeated casts throughout a long day of Tenkara fishing. In summary, this model is ideal for those seeking a rod with a responsive action that allows for precise casts, quick response, and reduced fatigue during fishing.
