Is there a US version of the Daiwa Gouin Aomono?

We could not find the Gouin Aomono 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 Gouin Aomono M-235·Q: 2.35 m (7'9") long, 2 pieces, 123 cm (48.4 in) folded, weighs 275 g (9.7 oz), sinker rating #50–150 (187.5–562.5 g, 6.6–19.8 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 4 models from 2.15 m (7'1") to 2.35 m (7'9"), all 2-piece.
  • The shortest packed length is 113 cm (44.5 in) (M-215·Q).
  • Weights run from 250 g (8.8 oz) on the S-215·Q to 280 g (9.9 oz) on the H-235·Q.
  • Carbon content 60–68% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥45,500–¥47,000, which is in the upper-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #30–#200 (112.5–750 g).
  • Japanese party-boat fishing. Styles and tackle are specific to Japan.
  • 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.
