The Sakasa Kebari (reverse hackle fly) is not the only type of pattern in tenkara, but it is one of tenkara's most distinct and recognizable fly styles.

These flies are a "modern" version of the Takayama sakasa kebari, which have been used for hundreds of years throughout Japan. These modern variations are thought to have been conceived, or at least popoularized, by tenkara masters Fuji-meijin and Amano-meijin (*meijin = master). These are the tenkara patterns most easily found in fly shops nowadays.
