Is there a US version of the Daiwa Gekkabijin EX?
We could not find the Gekkabijin EX by name in Daiwa’s 2026-27 US catalog (printed, July 2026), so the sizes and specs on this page are the Japan-market ones. Sellers who ship from Japan are the usual source for this exact model in the US; a US dealer may still carry a related model under a different name.

About this item
What the maker's numbers say about this model:
- The shortest packed length is 88 cm (34.6 in) (EX AGS 57UL-T·Q).
- Weights run from 42 g (1.5 oz) on the EX AGS 57UL-T·Q to 82 g (2.9 oz) on the EX AGS 76ML-T·Q.
- At 42 g, the EX AGS 57UL-T·Q is the lightest 1.70 m (5'7") rod we list (of 86 at that length).
- Rated for lures from 0.3 g to 10 g (0.01–0.35 oz) across the range.
- PE line rating 0.1–0.5.
- Carbon content 98–100% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥68,000–¥74,000, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for lures 0.3–10 g (0.01–0.35 oz), PE line #0.1–#0.5.
- Very light rods for small saltwater fish (mebaru and aji).
- Sizes marked go (号) are the Japanese standard. For sinkers one go is exactly 3.75 g, so we convert it; for line it is a diameter class rather than a breaking strain, so we print the maker's number as published.
- Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.
