All parts are available for any accidental breaks. There is also a One-Time Rod Replacement warranty on the Talon rod where you can get a brand new replacement rod for $42 if you accidentally destroy your rod bad and need more parts than you want to buy. If you have a break that you feel was a defect, contact DRAGONtail Tenkara customer support. **Q: What’s the length? Description says β€œ6:4” but in the body of the description it says 10.6 feet.** A: 6:4 refers to the action. Tenkara rods are most often 7:3 action with really stiff ones having an 8:2 action. A 6:4 action means that 60% of the rod is stiff and 40% is a limber tip. The equivalent in Orvis action terms would be full flex for 6:4, mid flex for 7:3, and tip flex for 8:2. The 6:4 action of the Dragon tail Talon is really limber, but a real pleasure to cast. The length is 10.6 feet. **Q: Which kit should i choose for fishing in streams in the sierra nevada? i'm new to fly fishing in general.** A: The Tenkara Level Line or Furled Line kits will both work for the streams in the Sierra Nevada area. The furled line will be easier for a Tenkara beginner to learn on because it has a taper to it that makes casting easier. The fulled line is one line at a fixed length. The Level Line kit comes with a spool of level line that you can cut multiple lines from at varying lengths to fit your needs. Tenkara Level Line is a bit harder for beginners to learn casting with because it is lighter and has no taper. **Q: Is it comfortable?** A: I love it, I’m a Tenkara rookie. I fly fish as well but have found myself using my Tenkara Rod more, easier pack, etc., my Dragontail goes everywhere with me, I’m sure I’ll upgrade one day but not right now. Light weight, easy to use, nice case couldn’t be happier. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for lightweight backpacking! *by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2019* I bought this for my annual week long backpacking trip with my Dad in the Wind River Range. I'm a photographer so I'm already carrying extra gear and bringing my fly rod was annoying. This was perfect for catching brookies in the high lakes and streams and fit nicely next to my tripod. I mostly caught 5-8" fish with it but it did awesome with a fiesty 12" too. It's quick and easy to deploy and casting is only hard in heavy wind. I went with the level line kit which I like better than my Dad's furled line, the only downside is if it gets tangled it makes for some really nasty knots. I'm really happy with this rod and will be taking it on a lot of future hikes and backpacking trips, it's too light and easy not to!Edit: I forgot to mention reach! It worked perfectly in small lakes and streams with 9ft level line and 2ft tippet. You can still work the edges of larger lakes but it doesn't have the reach to get out in the middle for Goldens or bigger fish. That didn't hamper me at all and worked perfect for what it's intended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun *by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2020* This rod has added joy to my summer. Its easy and fun to use. My eleven-year-old daughter even hooked and landed her own trout with it. It works really well on small streams for fish in the 8-12 inch range, but I have used it on an alpine lake and was able to catch a trout near shore. I am not sure how long the rod will last. After one month of occasional use the bottom cap section snapped off the handle and I had to superglue it back on. But I contacted Dragontail and they sent me a new handle section very quickly. Overall I think its well worth the price, especially with the good customer service. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Very pleased. *by J***L on Reviewed in the United States on March 26, 2019* Very well made light and packable rod. Finish is very nice. Great value. I was apprehensive about the foam handle but it is very comfortable and dries quickly. Very simple quality rod.
