Is there a US version of the Daiwa Markdry?
We could not find the Markdry 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.

What the maker's numbers say about this model:
- The Markdry 4-52 Ento·J: 5.15 m (16'11") long, 5 pieces, 121 cm (47.6 in) folded, weighs 388 g (13.7 oz), sinker rating #10–15 (37.5–56.25 g, 1.3–2.0 oz) (maker's figures).
- 10 models from 4.20 m (13'9") to 5.27 m (17'3"), in 4- to 5-piece builds.
- The shortest packed length is 113 cm (44.5 in) (1.25-53·J).
- Weights run from 191 g (6.7 oz) on the 1.5-42·J to 388 g (13.7 oz) on the 4-52 Ento·J.
- Carbon content 98–99% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥39,400–¥47,900, which is in the upper-middle of the price range of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #1–#15 (3.75–56.25 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.
