Millerods introduces our second EGI design into the production range!

This model is the Finesse rod, lighter and softer action than the longer ‘Power’ model. The EGI – F rod is designed to easily cast a smaller/lighter range of Egi lures, particularly in the 2.5 to 3.0 sizes.

This style EGI – F rod is light in the hand and well balanced so it is easy to manipulate for a wide range of lure retrieve styles.

The intermediate 7’6” length is versatile, and is equally at home as a land-based rod but not too long for boat fishing where it will deliver excellent casting distance. The specific Egi blank action incorporates a slightly stiffer tip action to increase casting distance and impart more lift to the lure when aggressive retrieves are employed. The mid-section of the rod still loads easily to help with landing hooked squid.

Over many years of fishing, Ian has been able to continually refine this rod design as his smaller lure rod and is finally happy that this rod takes this fishing to the next level!

The blank is a custom blend of high modulus graphite to suit this specific action and power for maximum sensitivity and balance. The 2pc centre-ferrule blank construction means that transport and storage is extremely easy.

The multi-guide train is a blend of the latest Fuji guide frames with SiC ‘slim ring’ ceramic. The stripper guide is the RV shape, which funnels line to a KR guide train in sizes down to semi-micro size. Eight guides + tip-top further enhance the overall smoothness of this rod performance.

Ian has opted for the Fuji VSS seat for the comfortable grip it provides to active lure retrieves. This is matched with a minimalist handle that is both ergonomic and lightweight. The custom shaped x-firm EVA fore grip and up-locking rear grip provides hand support right where it’s needed to make long sessions of casting and retrieve easier. Finished off with a short butt grip to add easy power to the cast, all finished with the ‘M’ logo anti-skid butt cap.

 

^Millerods recommends the use of the FG knot for connecting braided fishing lines to monofilament leaders. All Ian’s lure casting guide trains are selected with this connecting knot in mind.
