Quick take
A complete beginner tenkara kit with 30 meters of level line, tenkara flies, tippet, and line holders for mountain stream trout.
This tenkara starter kit bundles what a new angler needs besides the rod: a 30 meter spool of high-visibility orange fluorocarbon level line in size 3.5, two thin line holders, three flies and a spool of 4x tippet. The bright line is easy to watch on the water, and the spool gives you enough to build several lines. It suits anyone picking up tenkara who already has, or plans to buy, a rod.
