I feel that regular fly rods are more convenient for fishing small streams with overhanging trees.
For tenkara, I prefer streams with more open space. Without a reel, landing fish becomes more a problem than casting when there is no space to raise the rod. I often end up collapsing the rod while landing fish, which is very inefficient and cumbersome.
For small mountain streams, my current favorite is Sage VXP 3wt 7’9” 😊
