Ruben Garza, cofounder of Wasatch Tenkara Rods, brings years of hands-on experience from the carbon fiber manufacturing industry. His background gives our team a deep understanding of rod materials, strength, balance, and performance — helping us design rods that feel incredibly responsive on the water while standing up to real-world fishing conditions.

At Wasatch Tenkara Rods, we believe great gear comes from people who understand both the product and the anglers using it. Ruben’s combined experience in carbon fiber manufacturing and customer care helps us provide rods that are thoughtfully designed, highly capable, and backed by service that genuinely supports our customers on and off the water.
