Is there a US version of the Daiwa Goutetsu?

We could not find the Goutetsu 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 117 cm (46.1 in) (H-50·W).
  • Weights run from 395 g (13.9 oz) on the MH-50·W to 485 g (17.1 oz) on the HH-50·W.
  • 99% carbon.
  • Japan list price ¥89,000–¥97,000, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #10–#20 (37.5–75 g).
  • Long telescopic rods used from rocks and harbour walls.
  • 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.

How the sizes differ

  • Compared with the MH-50·W, the H-50·W is the same length and 55 g heavier and costs ¥2,000 more in Japan.
  • Compared with the H-50·W, the HH-50·W is the same length and 35 g heavier, takes up to 20 go sinkers (2 go more) and costs ¥6,000 more in Japan.
  • Compared with the HH-50·W, the MH-53·W is 30 cm longer and 65 g lighter, takes up to 18 go sinkers (2 go less), packs to 124 cm (vs 117 cm) and costs ¥7,000 less in Japan.
