Farmer Camp uses five main colors for their products, a distinct purple, orange, green, red, and khaki so you can easily coordinate every piece of tackle (seriously, down to line, bag, float, towel, everything)

  • Kokoe - Bromeliad

    Kokoe – Bromeliad

    The Bromeliad is a higher end offering from the CDM company Kokoe. It straddles the border between tanago and tenkara rod and has a 7’/8′ double zoom, meaning it can be used at either length. It has enough flex and an action that allows for use as a compact tenkara rod, but I find myself using it primarily for tanago style.
