The Pro Spec is Nissin's value-led iso family and covers both standard float work and long casting on one page.
The standard Pro Spec runs twenty-eight rods from 3.55 m to 5.40 m in six classes, 0.8号 through 3号, at 120 g to 265 g. The KW Entou models add a K-guide long-casting build in eleven rods from 3.55 m to 5.35 m in 2.5号遠投 to 5号遠投, running heavier at up to 450 g for distance work.
Prices run ¥15,100 to ¥30,600 before tax. Power is the 号 class, the Japanese scale for iso rods: a 1号 blank is a fine float rod and a 5号 is a heavy one, and each class is a separate rod with its own weight, rating and price. 遠投 (entou) in a class name marks the long-casting version.
