Here’s a quick video showing how the new Kevlar furled lines from Tenkara USA don’t tangle after being snagged like the traditional monofilament furled lines did.

As a former fly fishing guide originally from Western New York, he moved to Colorado and became an early adopter of tenkara which perfectly suited the small, high altitude streams and lakes there. He has not fished a Western-style fly rod for trout since.
I used the new TUSA spectra furled line this fall and I have been very pleased. Thanks for the video, nice job.
Do you feel there would be any benefit to adding/using a tippet ring with the new spectra furled lines?
Hi Thom,
It depends on which kind of knot you prefer to connect the tippet. Some poeple like a loop-to-loop knot and some prefer a clinch or Trilene knot. Personally, I think there’s not much of a difference. Just depends on what knot you’re more comfortable with.
Thanks Jason, great to get a demo prior to buying
Thanks Andy. The new lines really make a big difference in cutting down on the frustration level when you get snagged.
