The Ukiyo encapsulates Tenkara USA's commitment to portability and sensitivity in one ultra-compact rod. At just under 15 inches when closed, it seamlessly fits into any day pack, making it the perfect companion for those far-reaching mountain stream adventures.
With an extended length of 9’9” (300cm) and a weight of only 2 ounces, this rod is tailor-made for small-stream fishing without the usual heft.
A unique feature, the Ukiyo boasts a graphite swell grip, a first in their line-up, designed to elevate the angler's experience. This, combined with their signature high-modulus graphite, ensures unmatched sensitivity. Every gentle bite, every subtle movement in the water can be felt more directly, making every catch feel all the more personal.
Another hallmark feature they have introduced with the Ukiyo is their patented “Keep-your-plug” system, a feature previously reserved for their adjustable rods. It’s all about convenience, ensuring you never misplace your rod plug during those intense fishing sessions. And, much like their other rods, aesthetics haven't taken a back seat. The Ukiyo's sections flaunt a mesmerizing royal blue finish, echoing its premium stature in our line-up.
In many ways, the Ukiyo is reminiscent of their popular Rhodo rod, but its emphasis on lightness, compactness, and the integral graphite grip that sets it apart. Compared to their also very compact Hane rod, the Ukiyo is lighter in weight, action, and features the more sensitive graphite swell grip as well as our keep our plug system. It's even more compact at 14.5" closed length and a 9.85' opened length.
