Lady Tenkara Bum
my tenkara journey
My name is Amanda Hoffner and I am LadyTenkaraBum.
Welcome to my tenkara journey…
This is my attempt to put into a single space my thoughts, ideas, and information on tenkara and fixed line fishing. On the drop down menu, you will find links to my blog, kebari I have tied, tenkara product reviews, and other podcasts and articles I have written or been a part of. Happy exploring!
Please feel free to reach out to me via instagram or facebook if you have any questions regarding anything tenkara related. You can find me by searching “ladytenkarabum”. If I dont have the answer, then I can point you to somebody who does. Looking forward to talking tenkara with you!

Hi Amanda,
To my delight, I received my envelope full of Tenkara flies this morning. Thank you for this great and fun project. I’m delighted at the variety. I’m CERTAIN that all will fish well and expect to try each of them this year.
Hey, the postage amount on this envelope was shocking! May I send you some dough to help?
