MajorCraft SP Solpara X Egi Rod

A lightweight, precision-tuned egi rod built to give Australian squid anglers total control when it matters most.

The MajorCraft SP Solpara X Egi Rod is designed for dedicated squid anglers who want refined sensitivity, smooth lure control, and dependable strength in a highly portable package. Built on MajorCraft’s proven VTX carbon blank technology, this rod delivers a perfectly balanced semi-parabolic action that excels at working egi jigs naturally while cushioning sudden runs from big calamari.

At 8’3” and constructed in a convenient two-piece format, the Solpara X Egi is ideal for anglers on the move, whether fishing breakwalls, harbours, estuaries, or exposed headlands. The blank loads smoothly on the cast for excellent distance with lightweight jigs, then transitions seamlessly into a forgiving curve that keeps hooks pinned during aggressive surges.

Fuji O-Ring guides provide smooth line flow and reliable durability in saltwater environments, while the responsive tip section enhances bite detection and jig manipulation. Rated for PE 0.4–1.2 and egi sizes from 1.2 to 4.0, this rod is perfectly suited to modern egging techniques and light jigging applications.

Whether you’re targeting southern calamari or tropical squid species, the SP Solpara X Egi offers the control, feel, and confidence needed to fish longer and land more squid consistently.
