Is there a US version of the Daiwa Megathis R ENTO?

We could not find the Megathis R 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 shortest packed length is 123 cm (48.4 in) (3-53 Ento).
  • Weights run from 350 g (12.3 oz) on the 3-53 Ento to 440 g (15.5 oz) on the 5-53 Ento.
  • 99% carbon.
  • Japan list price ¥83,500–¥86,500, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #5–#25 (18.75–93.75 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 3-53 Ento, the 4-53 Ento is the same length and 45 g heavier, takes up to 20 go sinkers (5 go more), packs to 124 cm (vs 123 cm) and costs ¥1,000 more in Japan.
  • Compared with the 4-53 Ento, the 5-53 Ento is the same length and 45 g heavier, takes up to 25 go sinkers (5 go more) and costs ¥2,000 more in Japan.
