If that is what you have read, you have been misinformed. Tenkara fishing very definitely involves casting. The cast is very much like a fly fishing steeple cast, in which your back cast is high and you forward cast is down towards the water so that the fly lands first. If you do not haul (or double haul) the motion of the hand, arm - and line - is almost identical.
