Is there a US version of the Daiwa Yoshu?
We could not find the Yoshu 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 Yoshu 16·W: 4.80 m (15'9") long, 5 pieces, 109 cm (42.9 in) folded, weighs 112 g (4.0 oz) (maker's figures).
- 11 models from 2.10 m (6'11") to 5.40 m (17'9"), in 3- to 5-piece builds.
- The shortest packed length is 77 cm (30.3 in) (7·W).
- Weights run from 41 g (1.4 oz) on the 7·W to 120 g (4.2 oz) on the 18·W.
- Carbon content 84–98% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥12,300–¥24,300, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- 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.
