This is the current model, purchased new last year. Used three times. Always rinsed with water after use. There is a faint scratch near the logo on the base of the rod. I took a picture, but it didn't show up, so I deleted it. The rubber stopper is tight from the start, so I haven't forced it in. The photos show everything included. Warranty card is also included. Please refrain from purchasing if you are overly concerned about details. No returns or exchanges. #FishType: Ayu (Sweetfish) #AyuRod #TomoZuri (Ayu fishing with live bait) #Shimano #Daiwa #Gamagatsu
