Catch Your Dinner. No Experience Required.

Ultra-Compact Survival Fishing Kit That’s Always Ready to Cast

Fishing Has NEVER Been Easier

You don’t need a tackle box the size of a suitcase—or years of experience—to feed yourself in a crisis. The Tenkara Emergency Fishing Rod & Fly Kit by Ready Hour gives you everything you need to catch your next meal, all in a collapsible, ultra-lightweight package. Designed for both beginners and seasoned fishermen, this pole and kit makes fishing straightforward and accessible in emergencies. No tacklebox. No nonsense. Just extend, cast, catch, clean, and eat.

Ideal for Bug-Out Bags, Wilderness Kits & Off-Grid Living

Fishing might be your only option when the power’s out, the roads are closed, or the stores are empty. This rod is built for grab-and-go emergencies: at just 17 inches when collapsed, it’s compact enough to stash in a pack, under a vehicle seat, or just about anywhere else. When it’s time to wet your line, it extends to nearly 10 feet for real reach and flexibility. Whether you’re fly fishing mountain streams or shore fishing in a pinch, this setup gives you a reliable way to get high-quality protein without weighing you down (or breaking the bank).

Calories Don’t Catch Themselves

In survival scenarios, knowing how to fish can be the difference between riding it out… and running on fumes. This kit makes it as easy as possible. Beginners can use it. Pros will respect it. It’s a lightweight, quiet, and renewable source of protein—aka, survival gold.

Expertly Designed. Shockingly Simple. Ready to Go.

Forget the complicated mess of traditional fishing setups. This patent-pending system uses a traditional fixed line instead of a tangle-prone reel, it’s made with high-strength carbon fiber, weighs next to nothing, and fits in tight spaces. Just attach the pre-spooled leader, tie on one of the included flies, and get fishing in seconds.

Thank you, the fishing rod is quite impressive. Very light yet very sturdy. The fish in my creek are quite small, so I haven't tested it with a whopper. Will probably get a lot of use out of this!

This is perfect for lightweight carry. Folds down and can catch fish when fishing is hard. This is also a great way to learn an area near a stream or river and practice harvesting food and fish. You won’t be disappointed!
