Quick take
A 0.93 meter telescoping stream rod designed for small Japanese freshwater fish like tanago with minimal weight and fast action.
This Daiwa Hinata is a compact telescoping stream rod made of carbon fiber, about 0.93 meters long. It runs a fast action with a medium power, aimed at small fish like tanago in tight, close-range water. Its short, light build suits anglers who want a simple rod to carry on small streams and ponds.
