Tenkara R21 (Unit 21 Of 22): A Limited Edition, Individually Numbered Rod

Some rods are tools. This one is a signature. The Tenkara R21 is hand-built by master artisan Mario Díaz Ibarra — “El Artesano de la Pesca a la Mosca” — as part of a strictly limited run of 22 individually numbered rods. This is Unit 21 of 22, hand-signed and yours alone.

🏆 Why anglers keep coming back to the R21

Extending to 227cm across 11 precision-fitted sections, the R21 is built for close, controlled presentations. The natural cork grip — with its warm, honeyed grain — is shaped to the hand for long days on the water, and the glossy black blank carries a smooth, confident flex under a light cast. It travels in its own hand-stitched red leather case, as much a keepsake as a rod.

🏞️ Perfect for These Destinations

The R21’s balanced length and effortless portability make it a versatile companion for technical waters around the world:

• 🇪🇸 Pyrenees & Picos de Europa (Spain): tight, overgrown creeks and native trout streams
• 🇮🇹 Italian Dolomites: crystalline alpine headwaters demanding a delicate approach
• 🇸🇮 Slovenia (Soča & Lepena Rivers): technical currents and gin-clear pools
• 🇺🇸 Rocky Mountains (USA): pocket water on creeks like the Big Thompson
• 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scottish Highlands: small spate rivers where a compact setup wins the day

🎁 Free Gift Set Included

This R21 comes ready to fish, with everything you need from day one:

• 🧵 EVA foam line winder
• ➰ Braided tenkara line
• 🎣 Level line with tippet
• 🪰 2 hand-tied tenkara flies
• 🔗 Line keepers

📸 Photo note: one of the product photos shows the gift set items laid out alongside the rod, so you can see exactly what’s included. This is for illustration only — everything ships neatly packed together, not pre-assembled.

🎄 A Gift They’ll Actually Use

Looking for a birthday gift for the angler in your life — or something worth putting under the tree this Christmas? A numbered, hand-signed rod says more than a gift card ever could, and Unit 21 of 22 will never be duplicated.
