Is there a US version of the Daiwa Light Korogashi?
We could not find the Light Korogashi 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 Light Korogashi H72M: 7.20 m (23'7") long, 7 pieces, 132 cm (52.0 in) folded, weighs 240 g (8.5 oz), sinker rating #1.5–6 (5.62–22.5 g, 0.20–0.79 oz) (maker's figures).
- 6 models from 7.20 m (23'7") to 8.98 m (29'6"), in 7- to 9-piece builds.
- The shortest packed length is 132 cm (52.0 in) (72M).
- Weights run from 230 g (8.1 oz) on the 72M to 340 g (12.0 oz) on the H90M.
- 99% carbon.
- Japan list price ¥51,000–¥72,500, which is in the upper-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #1–#6 (3.75–22.5 g).
- Very long rods for the Japanese sweetfish. Almost unknown outside 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.
