Weighs 99 grams
Toray blank with micro ti sic guides.
$300
It feels sensational in hand. Couple of mates bought em. No dramas fished out of the boat. However I’m hoping he brings out a model a bit shorter like my 7’8 Megabass caiyen.
Have you solved this Mattblack? did you find a 7ft proper egi rod?Mattblack wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 9:50 amHi all,
I know there is a bit of debate whether or not Egi Rod's are a marketing ploy to get us to spend more money, but I'd like to get a rod specifically for targeting squid from a boat (mainly because I like the idea of it sitting in the rack rigged & ready to go). Anyone have an opinion on what I should be looking at? ($100-$200 budget)
P.S. I liked the sephia bb, but it seems too long to be using from a boat
I ended up getting a Catana Egi (7 1/2 ft)....dont really like it, it's too stiff and I'm not a fan of split grips (they dont sit in the rod holders/rocket launcher very well) I seem to get a better action out of a jig with my nibble tip whiting rod (it hasnt happened yet, but casting a big jig will snap it one day for sure).Seb85 wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 2:29 pmHave you solved this Mattblack? did you find a 7ft proper egi rod?Mattblack wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 9:50 amHi all,

I'm kind of in the same dilemma, being on kayak 8ft3 seems a bit long, hard to reach without bending the rod too much.
In my recent post, I mentioned my NS Black Water 702 egi rod is nice and light and good length, got the right action too, but it's a little too stiff and fast. I like soft parabolic egi rod.
Planning to sell it (being only used twice) and get a softer less fast egi rod.
Ok thanks.Mattblack wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 2:59 pm

If I could only take out 1 rod for the day, it would be my whiting rod (Shimano Impact NXT)....have caught everything on that little beauty.
