THE squid phenomenon just keeps getting bigger and better and, as a consequence, Samurai have turned their attention back to squid or Egi rods. The result, according to the manufacturers, is some of the finest, lightest and crispest feeling fishing rods in the world.
These new Samurai Egi rods use cross woven, hex axial carbon graphite to deliver a blank that is light and strong. Samurai press and cross the fibres in a process that results in a crisp, machine rolled multi-tapered blank, an action that is said to be essential for the lunging runs of large squid. The tip of the rod remains light and whip sharp, imparting action to the jig as soon as the angler initiates any movement with the rod.
There are 3 models, an L, M and ML covering jigs from 1.5-4.0 and all employ class leading Fuji Titanium Torzite guides and EVA foam grips. Samurai Egi rods are both light and responsive, and using only high quality components.
