The Sato is the rod we designed to make it easier to choose a tenkara rod, reducing the need to contemplate the question of "what tenkara rod should I get?"

The Tenkara USA Sato™ is a compact and lightweight (2.9oz) adjustable tenkara rod that can be fished at 3 lengths: 10'8", 11'10", and 12'9" (3.25m - 3.9m). At its shorter length it is perfect for tighter streams, and at its full length it will be ideal when the stream opens up again or when you find a bigger pool to cast your fly. The Sato is named after Mr. Ernest Satow, an avid mountaineer who was the first person to make a written record of tenkara. 

The Sato™ has two patent pending features:
Triple-zoom: this allows you to use the rod at three different lengths - 10’8”/ 11’10”/12’9” (330/360/390cm). The average length for a tenkara rod is 12ft long, we like to recommend rods that are closer to 13ft, yet many people are intimidated by such long lengths for rods intended for smaller streams. So, we felt a rod with the 3 most common lengths would be an easy choice: short to ease you into tenkara, medium to give you a taste of the advantages presented by a long tenkara rod, and long to help you take full advantage to the tenkara method. 

Keep your Plug™ system (patent pending): We're very excited about this very simple yet innovative feature. After hearing that no one has ever been able to keep their tenkara rod plug for longer than a year, we decided we should find a solution for you to never lose your plug again. We designed the “Keep your plug”™ system. Next time you go fishing, remove the plug from the top end of your rod and insert it into the hole at the bottom of your rod. The Sato™ will come with two plugs on the rod; please leave one at home in case you ever need it.

It's one of the only toys that we originally got for our pup that has lasted
Color: Blue goose - pineapple plush
We got a lab mix (we think with a Great Dane) on Labor Day weekend 2025. She has destroyed 100% of the toys we got her that weekend, with the exception of this duck. Yes, it is missing it's feet at this point (they got chewed off and torn sometime around Halloween), but the duck itself is still intact. She chews on the duck every day, it's one of her favorite toys, and it's seen some things. We've washed it a few times in the laundry machine, and it looks nice a clean every time we pull it out and let it dry. She's gnawed on it through losing puppy teeth and getting adult teeth, and she's is currently chewing away on her duck on her bed in the living room. I understand others have reported really mixed reviews, but I'm so glad we got this duck and it's one of the only toys we've bought that I feel like was worth the price because it didn't get destroyed immediately. We plan on buying another one for Christmas.

Honestly….
Color: Blue goose - pineapple plush, Color: Blue goose - pineapple plush
I hate to buy Giant or Tiny a toy only to find it in some corner ignored. Would this goose make a lifetime friend OR would it fly away to some unknown corner of the house?!?! I was thrilled that Giant wanted to open the box himself. As soon as I set it on the table for some pictures, Giant saw his chance and grabbed it. This happened again! Safe to say, our family gives this a FIVE!! This is great as it squeaks and crinkles. It is super soft cloth and states it can hold up to aggressive chewers. It is one foot long. The stitching all seems to be in place. They state it is "Upgraded Indestructible" as it is sturdier material. The last toy has lived up to that claim. QUALITY: 5 out of 5 PROS: For us, it's the crinkle sound. I'm not sure why but they love that sound. Easy wash and go is great too! CONS: I wish it was bigger than one foot but that is because I have a big dog. Overall, Fantastic toy that is always with a dog. I will need to purchase more to have hidden away should it ever get lost.

“Indestructible” not so much
Color: Blue goose - pineapple plush
Cute as can be, but the cloth-only tips on the wings and tail were immediately ripped off, eaten, and vomited. I’m hoping without those, the toy will be “more” indestructible.

My dog loved this toy, however it is not indestructible, he had it in 2 pieces within a day, but I do need to say he is a big boy and we haven’t found a toy yet that he can’t destroy
