Take a look at this tenkara ace! We really had to work for that fish. My young companion was patient, focused and ready when opportunity knocked. The result is a great smile and a fish well caught. I normally use 10 as a minimum age for guiding. This is really a practical limit as I don’t stock waders in childrens’ sizes. But this guy brought his own and I’m glad he did. It was a pleasure to spend some high quality stream time with him and his proud dad.
