What is an eging rod used for?

An eging rod is the light, fast spinning fishing rod for squid jigs (egi). It is tuned to dart the lure and feel a light take.

Not a general spinning rod: the tip is sensitive enough for egi. The method is eging, not bass spinning.

When should you use an eging rod?

Use it at dusk and night around structure when you are fishing an egi, not a bass minnow.

What problems does an eging rod solve?

It shows the tap of a squid that a heavier spinning rod would hide.
