Is there a US version of the Daiwa Gekkou Yawara?
We could not find the Gekkou Yawara 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.

- The Gekkou Yawara 15: 4.50 m (14'9") long, 5 pieces, 101 cm (39.8 in) folded, weighs 91 g (3.2 oz) (maker's figures).
- 9 models from 2.10 m (6'11") to 4.50 m (14'9"), in 3- to 5-piece builds.
- The shortest packed length is 76 cm (29.9 in) (7).
- Weights run from 36 g (1.3 oz) on the 7 to 91 g (3.2 oz) on the 15.
- Carbon content 87–98% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥22,500–¥34,500, which is in the lower-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
- 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.
