This is a very important fishing rod, and a hard-to-find item. Product Name: Sakura High-Grade Fishing Rod - Sakurai Fishing Tackle Edogawa Teibou Ishidai (Seabream) - Special Order 3.6M All SIC Guides Urushi Lacquer Grip Ishizuki (Butt) - Yamadashi (Mountain-Made) Random Polishing (Pure Gold Leaf 100%) Manufacturer's Description: Ideal for seabream fishing from breakwaters, "kabuse" fishing (a style of fishing), and "mae-uchi" (a style of fishing) and pulse fishing in offshore fishing ponds. This rod can be widely used for various types of fishing, including boat fishing for Mebaru (rockfish), Kiss (sillaginids), Tai (sea bream), and large fish in Kase (fishing rafts) and Ikada (rafts). With excellent bite, easy bite detection, and a special tip that bends without limit, the strong body and tenacity produced by the blanks of "Sakura's special reinforced glass material" allow you to easily reel in large fish. Rod Condition: Used sparingly, with few scratches and little sign of use, it is in a clean condition. There are no noticeable scratches, and I think it is a beautiful item. No broken tip. Rod Action: This rod has a "do-cho" (body-action) type, like a strengthened version of a Chinu (black sea bream) raft rod for large fish, and is a pulse fishing rod that detects bites with the tip. The whole rod bends. This rod reproduces the feel of a bamboo rod and has a slightly tip-action, with power and tenacity from the handle to about halfway up the rod, bending as much as needed to match the fish's pull. The tip is designed for good bite and to detect delicate bites, and it doesn't have the "vibration" feel of a carbon rod, so the fish won't feel any discomfort. Made of thick, specially reinforced glass, it is durable and won't break easily. Joint Condition: Tight and secure with no looseness. How to Use: Ideal for pulse fishing for various fish from breakwaters, rafts, Kase, and offshore fishing ponds, as well as "mae-uchi," "kabuse" fishing, and flatfish lure fishing.
