My co-worker friend has been teaching me Tenkara fishing.  It is a  
Japanese kind of fly fishing with rod, line, tippet and fly only.  No  
reel, no other accessories, simple and great fun!

'Tenkara' means 'from Heaven', and refers to the gentle way the fly is  
presented on the water.

Today I caught my first fish (ever in my life), a Yamame.  In English,  
it is known as 'masu trout', and is native to Japan.  Saut?ed with a  
dusting of salt and flour it is delicious!

The first 3 photos were taken with the Canon S90, and the last 3 with  
M9 and tabbed Summicron 50.
