ARES ZEROSUM Kyogi Kazaguruma

Kazaguruma sits at the top of Nissin's herabuna range, in the flagship ZEROSUM tier, and the maker describes the design goal as holding power and a firm action together in the same blank.

Three rods cover 3.60 m, 4.50 m and 5.35 m at 70 g to 135 g, remarkably light for competition poles of that length, with a 1.0 to 2.0 号 harisu rating and a 105 cm closed length.

Prices run ¥46,200 to ¥73,000 before tax, the most expensive poles Nissin lists.
