Used for about 5 hours on February 17, 2024, for listing. Caught a 38cm "kouta" (a type of fish) and a 43cm "budai" (a type of fish), and they were caught without any problems. Purchased at auction about 2 years ago and has been stored at home for the most part. When I measured the length, it is about 7cm shorter. The tip has been shortened. The tip guide is not original and is mixed in, so it is considered a junk item. There are also scratches on the base. No rod cover. Please purchase with the understanding that it is a used item. Will be packed in a cardboard tube.
