Nice, JDM tackle heaven had them at 35% off, under $200, quite a deal. The rod is actually made in Japan and has a high modulus content, stainless steel frames with sic inserts. It also has the nishijin weaving on the reel seat. My weighs in at 2 oz and I have caught lake trout vertically jigging with this rod over 20 lbs. The caution from tenryu states the graphite is very delicate (HM) and no high sticking or sudden load should be applied to rod, this is my favorite rod by far and equivalent rod USA is 3x as much and the tubular tip makes it more durable IMO vs solid carbon.
