Is there a US version of the Daiwa Hatou ENTO?
We could not find the Hatou ENTO 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 Hatou ENTO 5-53 Ento·N: 5.30 m (17'5") long, 5 pieces, 122 cm (48.0 in) folded, weighs 415 g (14.6 oz), sinker rating #12–20 (45–75 g, 1.6–2.6 oz) (maker's figures).
- 5 models from 4.50 m (14'9") to 5.30 m (17'5"), all 5-piece.
- The shortest packed length is 105 cm (41.3 in) (3-45 Ento·N).
- Weights run from 292 g (10.3 oz) on the 3-45 Ento·N to 415 g (14.6 oz) on the 5-53 Ento·N.
- 99% carbon.
- Japan list price ¥45,000–¥49,500, which is in the upper-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #5–#20 (18.75–75 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.
