About this piece
The Daiwa Hamon Koucho15/J is a versatile multi-piece rod designed for native trout (hera-buna) but also excels as an all-purpose fishing tool. Its medium 4.5m length and hard power offer a balanced mix of sensitivity and backbone, while the traditional ferrule joint construction provides a smooth, deep-bending action. Compact when folded to 109cm, it's perfect for anglers on the move.
