Is there a US version of the Daiwa Kyokuei MG?

We could not find the Kyokuei MG 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 105 cm (41.3 in) (82H-200).
  • Weights run from 127 g (4.5 oz) on the 73M-230 to 152 g (5.4 oz) on the 82HH-200.
  • Carbon content 94–98% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥72,000–¥73,500, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #20–#200 (75–750 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.

  • Compared with the 82H-200, the 82HH-200 is the same length and 10 g heavier, takes up to 200 go sinkers (50 go more) and costs ¥500 more in Japan.
