Eging reel

Lightweight spinning reels for cuttlefish and squid fishing squid jig

Spinning for cuttlefish or squid squid jigalso known as calamari, requires a light, sensitive spinning reel. The reel plays an important role in the balance of the rod and the fishing sensation.

In order to feel the discreet bites of cephalopods, the reel used must be sensitive and well balanced. This is why the reels used must be light.

However, to best complement the long rods, you should still choose a spinning reel 3000 size. As for spool capacity, there's no need to choose a large one. Choose a good-sized, lightweight reel for perfect balance.

Eging fishing, salt-resistant spinning reels

Like all sea fishing techniques, eging requires salt-resistant equipment so you can use it without fear of corrosion.

Although cuttlefish and squid are fished from harbours, fishing tackle is just as much in contact with salt water. That's why the reels used must be watertight and made from resistant materials. The same applies to rods, which must be fitted with treated guides. The Japanese brand Daiwa has fully understood the importance of this type of fishing and has developed the Emeraldas range for cephalopod fishing.
