【A Coveted Rod for Long-Distance Basket Fishing】 This is the legendary "Soga" rod from Daikoh Co., Ltd. (Daikoh). It's a rare, bait reel-specific long-distance casting rod that any basket fisherman would recognize. 【Precise Design】 This versatile #4 strength rod can handle medium to large fish and is 585mm long. The slightly longer length and firm #4 rating provide ample specifications for casting 15-20 size baskets. 【Stylish Design】 The black and red color scheme is sure to attract attention from other basket fishermen on the pier. It's simple yet stylish, enhancing your presence at the fishing spot. - Brand: Daikoh - Model Number: 4-585 - Type: High-Potential Carbon Rod - Color: Black & Red - Material: Carbon - Compatible: Bait reel only (e.g., Abu 6500) Purchased about 15 years ago. I used it with care, but a few years ago I realized the catch wasn't matching the rod's price, so it's been stored in a dark room indoors. Production has now ended, and it's difficult to purchase a new one. Compared to other manufacturers, this rod has a firmer feel even at the same number rating, and I could cast over 100m even with a light throw. I mainly used it for night fishing for hairtail. There are many small scratches from use, and it's in average condition for a used item, but the tip is not damaged, so I think it will still perform well. I hope someone who appreciates the value of this rod will enjoy casting it to their heart's content; I think the rod would be happy too. Due to concerns about shipping costs and damage during transport, I would prefer to hand it over to the buyer. I will only accept buyers who can pick it up in the eastern part of Shizuoka Prefecture (near Numazu and Mishima). After purchase, we can decide on a pickup location via messages. I will offer a discount of -¥1,444 at the time of the exchange. *Discounts are not applicable during time sales. If you wish to have it shipped, I will only accommodate it with cash on delivery, understanding that I cannot compensate for damage during transport. Furthermore, returns and refunds are not accepted. I look forward to your purchase if you understand the above. Thank you for viewing.
