I purchased this rod new from a fishing tackle store last year for approximately 18,000 yen. It's an easy-to-use, good rod, but I'm selling it to someone who wants it because I already own a rod with the same action. Used as a sub rod on two fishing trips. 23 Gokuevolution Tenya Tachiuo 180-MH8:2 Brand: Gokuspe Number of sections: 2 Rod length (m): 1.8m Weight (g): 129g Action: Fast Target fish: Hairtail Fishing type: Guide type: External guide rod Also suitable for fish like the Japanese striped beakperch (Sanbasou).
