It's very light, making it ideal for windy days, upstream areas, tributaries, and targeting points close by. I bought it with great enthusiasm in the summer of 2-3 years ago and used it as a sub rod, so I haven't had many opportunities to use it and it's been sitting unused. Due to the low frequency of use, there are no noticeable scratches such as cracks, but there are slight scratches as shown in photos 9 and 10. Please check and purchase if you agree. Please refrain from purchasing if you are nervous or seeking perfection. ■ For the first time in the competition class, "Z- SVF Nano Plus" and the new rod technology "V-JOINTα" are adopted, While achieving the lightest weight and sharpness in Daiwa's short rod history, when operating, it has a tip action, but when hooked, it bends from the butt section, This new-sense ayu rod is widely applicable from pinpoint fishing in small rivers to fishing that explores the surface in large rivers, dramatically reducing nosare (fish running downstream) and fish tearing/loss. The proposed model, the "87M" with a 70cm 1-section multi, can be used in two ways: "87", which can be handled lightly with a 9m feel and is active as a main rod, and "80", which is ideal for use as a short rod in strong winds or when attacking small rivers and tributaries. It's not just for small rivers; the birth of a new "SL = SHORT LENGTH" that will be active as a main rod.
