Episode 11 Daniel Galhardo
Daniel Galhardo is the founder of Tenkara USA, the first company to sell tenkara rods in the United States back in 2009. Through Tenkara USA Daniel is responsible for bringing tenkara to the the US. In my opinion it’s hard to overstate the impact that he’s had on fly fishing here in the US.

I’ve known Daniel since 2011 when he was kind enough to allow me to create the poster and T-shirt design for the first Tenkara USA Summit in West Yellowstone. In 2012 I did a Q&A with Daniel for MidCurrent which you can read HERE.

The idea behind the Flyside Chats

After 2020 I’ve been feeling a bit disconnected from people that I know in the fly fishing world. I’m not the most social of anglers and I do a lot of fishing by myself. But there are a few folks that I get out with and I didn’t get to see most of them in 2020. I didn’t make any trips out of state and I didn’t get out nearly as much as I would have liked to.

So it is with some optimism I am looking forward to 2021 and the fishing that comes with it. Flyside Chats is a going to be series of videos where I try to reconnect with some tenkara and fly fishing folks that I know and hopefully with some new people too. I want to talk to people about what they’re looking forward to exploring in the season(s) ahead.
