{"product_id":"light-japanese-lantern-size-12-3-flies","title":"Light Japanese Lantern (Size 12, 3 Flies)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Japanese Lantern is a versatile, all-purpose sakasa kebari with a subtle yet distinctive twist. Tied in classic black with silver wire ribbing, this pattern delivers proven visibility and contrast in everything from crystal-clear waters to turbid streams. The silver ribbing adds segmentation and sparkle that enhances the fly’s attractor quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts forward-facing (sakasa) hackle flares in the water, allowing lifelike movement during a wide range of presentations—from upstream dead drifts to active manipulations. While it can be fished passively, the Japanese Lantern truly excels when animated with pulsing, twitching, or lifting techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of this pattern is its pearlescent head—a unique detail that peeks through the hackle with an insect-like flash. It’s just enough to catch the attention of feeding trout without overdoing it. Unweighted and best suited for fishing near the surface or in shallower riffles and runs, the Japanese Lantern is a must-have for tenkara anglers looking for both finesse and flair in a single fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSold in size 12.
