Hamachi Nano Stalker S2
6'6" Ultra-Light Spin
About This Rod
The Hamachi Nano Stalker S2™ is a 6'6" ultra-light spin rod built on a high-performance nano resin carbon blank — delivering exceptional sensitivity, a fast full-radical taper and genuinely refined casting feel at a price point that punches well above its class. The nano carbon construction bonds the blank fibres at a molecular level, producing a lighter, stronger, more responsive blank than conventional carbon.
Designed for finesse freshwater & saltwater fishing, the Nano Stalker S2 excels wherever a delicate touch and precise lure presentation are the difference between strikes and blank days — targeting bass, Murray cod, bream, brown trout, New Zealand trout and king salmon on light lures, soft plastics and small hardbodies. It doubles as a capable saltwater micro-jig rod, pairing beautifully with a 1000–4000 size reel for chasing mahi-mahi, tuna and other pelagics on small metals and micro jigs.
The full radical taper loads quickly and casts 5–20 gram lures with authority — a range that covers the majority of light-lure situations in both fresh and salt water. Pair it with the Hamachi Agera 1000–3000 SWX or any quality spinning reel in that size class and you have a balanced, nimble outfit that telegraphs every tap, every subtle take and every headshake directly into your hand.

Important Information
We are passionate, obsessed anglers — chasing everything from marlin and tuna offshore to tossing poppers and sliders for GT. With over 20 years in the fishing tackle industry, we use everything we sell. If you need help selecting the right product for your fishery, drop us an eBay message — we are happy to advise.
We operate Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm WST (Perth, Australia). Outside those hours, someone on the team (not out on the water) will typically respond within a few hours.
Why don't you carry every product?
We bulk-buy directly from the world's top manufacturers and wholesalers, hand-selecting only proven, high-quality fishing and boating products — then pass those direct savings on to you.
Why are auction prices so low?
As an authorised Hamachi Tackle Japan dealer, we run a strictly limited number of auction listings as part of our distribution agreement. Auction items are typically superseded models or rods with very minor cosmetic transit blemishes (e.g., a small mark on the EVA grip). They perform to full factory specification and are covered by a 1-year Hamachi warranty.
For us, auctions are a cost-effective marketing channel. Most customers prefer the certainty of our fixed-price listings, which include a Worldwide Lifetime Warranty and the latest model. As a result, auction rods often sell below our own cost. Good luck with the bidding.
