About this item

What the maker's numbers say about this model:

  • The Regal 2-45: 4.46 m (14'8") long, 5 pieces, 101 cm (39.8 in) folded, weighs 160 g (5.6 oz), sinker rating #2–6 (7.5–22.5 g, 0.26–0.79 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 11 models from 4.45 m (14'7") to 5.33 m (17'6"), in 5- to 6-piece builds.
  • The shortest packed length is 101 cm (39.8 in) (1.5-45).
  • Weights run from 145 g (5.1 oz) on the 1.5-45 to 420 g (14.8 oz) on the 5-53 Ento.
  • At 145 g, the 1.5-45 is the lightest 4.46 m (14'8") rod we list (of 7 at that length).
  • Carbon content 92–98% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥14,500–¥20,900, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #1.5–#20 (5.62–75 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.

Japan version vs export version

The Daiwa 2026-27 US catalog lists the Regal LT spinning reel but no Regal rods, so the Regal rods on this page are Japan-market models. Source: Daiwa 2026-27 overseas catalog (printed), p.34-35.
