BobVP;
Regarding your comment "Is Tenkara fly fishing...someone asked. Hmm, they use flies but there is no casting,"
I humbly and respectively must disagree. From rod tip to the fly might be 25 feet or so of line and leader.
I am a rank amateur at this, most of my efforts have been in my nephew's swimming pool; but, the cast needs to
be "spot on!"
Best to you,
