I thought it would be fun to start a thread on tenkara jokes. Got any? It could be anything from a knock knock to a "what did the spool say to the level line?"

What did the tenkara angler say to the western fly angler when asked about the bug activity?

"Hatches?....We ain't got no hatches!...We don't need no hatches!...I don't have to show you no stinking hatches!"

If you haven't watched "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" with Humphrey Bogart, then this might not make any sense to you. Good movie!

"The reverse side also has a reverse side"

What;s Hatching? Just fish man.

What are they bitting on? My Tenkara Skills.

Where's your reel? My favorite reel was a family heirloom from my Great Grandfather. It was passed down from father to first born son from my Great Grandfather, to my Grandfather, to my Father, and then to me on our 21st birthdays. We were taught to clean and car for the real by each of the Patriarchs before us, and we were to be buried with our best fly rods when we died. Dad was selfish though, so he wrote into his will that the real be sent to heaven so that he and his elders could fish in heaven. So ever since then, I haven't a real to fish with.

God, in his ultimate grace, has responded to my unselfish act, by sending me Tenkara fishing.

Not jokes but I always have seen these little comics in my head. Just wish I could draw them out.

#1
Comic of a tenkara fisherman asleep with a nightmare dream bubble hovering over his head of reels reels and more reels attacking him.

#2
Comic of a tenkara fisherman at his computer in the wee hours of the night getting caught by his wife while he looks at a taboo naughty subject matter on the internet, reels from different fly companies.

#3
Comic of God pointing his finger down and sending the tenkara fisherman towards hell, a place where everyone is chained to trees at the banks of wonderful rivers with rising trout and they all only have a reel, no rod, no line.

How are sakasa kebari like supper models?

Tight bodies, sexy legs, very attractive, and full of manipulation.

A bait angler, a fly fisher and a tenkara angler walk into a bar. The bait guy immediately orders a beer and sits down. The fly angler asks what kind of beer they have on draft, then what imports in bottles, then he checks the scotch, then he thinks he'll check the wine list, he asks what the locals have been drinking, and if there any specials, then finally orders a draft but can't decide on the 12 oz glass or the pint, or the liter. The tenkara angler never does order a drink because he can't decide what to call it.


- maybe a bit obtuse but I think a few may get it, hopefully

Q: How many tenkara anglers does it take to change a light bulb?

A: Until someone starts making "10 colour" light bulbs we will never know




A tenkara angler gets pulled over by a traffic cop for speeding in a 55. When the officer says that he's going to write a ticket, the angler says "Are you sure the sign says five five? Looks more like a six four to me officer".




Tenkara angler goes to buy some new jeans and the shop assistant says that they've got their whole range available in both button or zip. In fact, if you buy a pair of zip, you get the same ones in button for free.
Tenkara angler says, "Sorry I'm doing the whole "one fly" thing this season".
