METALLIA EGITAKO 系列 Fishing Rod
The METALLIA EGITAKO series is a specialized squid jigging rod designed to excel in egi‑tako (Octopus jigging) fishing — offering unmatched sensitivity, control, and ease of operation tailored to this technique. Developed with focus on the key needs of modern octopus anglers, it combines advanced materials and technologies to deliver superior bottom trace ability, precise lure motion, and instant bite detection. Featuring a MetalTop ultra‑elastic titanium alloy tip, this rod amplifies subtle underwater vibrations like octopus touches and terrain changes that carbon alone cannot sense, making it easier to detect even the slightest signal. The sensitive tip works in harmony with AGS (Air Guide System) carbon frame guides that transmit micro line vibrations directly to the blank without energy loss — resulting in heightened responsiveness and enhanced feel. X45 carbon reinforcement prevents unwanted twist during casting, jigging, hook setting, and fights, boosting power transfer, stability, and accuracy of motion. The ergonomic ZERO_SEAT cavity trigger reel seat balances lightweight comfort with secure grip, making repeated jigging less fatiguing during long sessions.
The rod lineup includes versatile actions like S‑175・J, a well‑rounded model emphasizing sensitivity and ease of small jig motions for precise bottom tracing, and MH‑170・J, an aggressive action model that delivers extra power for assertive lure control and offensive approaches. Each configuration is tuned to balance soft jig manipulation with the backbone needed for hooking and lifting larger octopus, giving anglers confidence in varied sea conditions and depths.
