Millerods introduces our second EGI design into the production range!
This model is the Finesse rod, lighter and softer action than the longer ‘Power’ model. The EGI – F rod is designed to easily cast a smaller/lighter range of Egi lures, particularly in the 2.5 to 3.0 sizes.
This style EGI - F rod is light in the hand and well balanced so it is easy to manipulate for a wide range of lure retrieve styles.
The intermediate 7’6” length is versatile, and is equally at home as a land-based rod but not too long for boat fishing where it will deliver excellent casting distance. The specific Egi blank action incorporates a slightly stiffer tip action to increase casting distance and impart more lift to the lure when aggressive retrieves are employed. The mid-section of the rod still loads easily to help with landing hooked squid.
Over many years of fishing, Ian has been able to continually refine this rod design as his smaller lure rod and is finally happy that this rod takes this fishing to the next level!
The blank is a custom blend of high modulus graphite to suit this specific action and power for maximum sensitivity and balance. The 2pc centre-ferrule blank construction means that transport and storage is extremely easy.
The multi-guide train is a blend of the latest Fuji guide frames with SiC 'slim ring' ceramic. The stripper guide is the RV shape, which funnels line to a KR guide train in sizes down to semi-micro size. Eight guides + tip-top further enhance the overall smoothness of this rod performance.
Ian has opted for the Fuji VSS seat for the comfortable grip it provides to active lure retrieves. This is matched with a minimalist handle that is both ergonomic and lightweight. The custom shaped x-firm EVA fore grip and up-locking rear grip provides hand support right where it’s needed to make long sessions of casting and retrieve easier. Finished off with a short butt grip to add easy power to the cast, all finished with the ‘M’ logo anti-skid butt cap.
^Millerods recommends the use of the FG knot for connecting braided fishing lines to monofilament leaders. All Ian’s lure casting guide trains are selected with this connecting knot in mind.
Ian Miller and his brand 'Millerods' have been leading the rod designing scene in Australia for decades. Ian's custom rods have pride of place in the collections of many anglers around the globe including keen anglers seeking every possible advantage they can get over both the fish and other anglers - as well as some of the highest profile fishing personalities in the country!
Ian's designs are so sought after that his personally handcrafted rods are incredibly hard to get, with keen anglers waiting months and even years to have their dream fishing rods created.
Now, Millerods introduces the 'Production Rod' range, comprising some of Ian's most popular designs in a fully imported fishing rod. Same blank designs, same components, same high performance and same distinctive appearance - all wrapped up in a super-high quality build!
So wait no longer - you can purchase direct right here!!
The Production Rod range includes some all-time best sellers, and some brand new models that Ian has specifically designed for their first release in this range of fully imported rods.
All-new blank actions and powers for highest performance in new blends of graphite to minimise weight yet maintain the robust features required. Most rod models are now 2pc for ease of travel and storage, and the construction format is 'removable handle' which provides the superior technical design of rod blank ferrules.
Ian's trademarked 'Control Freak' style handles are incorporated to maximise sensitivity and comfort while reducing weight and are 'minimalist' by design - no excessive material or weight are present. All seat parts are original Fuji Tackle components, with custom made trims.
These handle designs are presented in the Millerods instantly recognisable custom 'Camoufish' pattern in x-firm EVA material. This EVA is hard wearing, easier to fish with, and looks great!
All guide trains are original Fuji Tackle. This includes the latest 'Fazlite', 'Torzite' and 'Slim Ring' ceramics, as well as Fuji titanium frames on the light saltwater rod models.
All lure casting and spinning rods incorporate custom made Hook Keepers designed by Ian to be easy to use, minimalist, and totally tangle proof. Whether you're hanging a 1 gm soft plastic or 13oz swimbait on your rod, you can rely on the hook keeper being in the right place and the correct size for the lure.
The BeastFreak Australian model was the first of our Production Range which has now been joined by rods specifically designed for Australian bass, barramundi, snapper, mulloway, bream, Murray cod, golden perch, and other native fish, freshwater fish, and saltwater fish including big game billfish and tuna. More models will be added.
Ian always applies his decades of angling experience, as well as all his rod designing and building experience to every one of his custom rods - and the exact same level of commitment and attention to detail have been applied to these new rod designs - hand made in the highest quality rod factory of mainland China.
We thank the anglers who have supported these cutting edge rod designs, which are available for purchase on this website. And we’ll continue to offer Pre-Orders for new releases so our most loyal customers to get their favourite gear as fast as possible and at a reduced cost. Stay tuned!
Re-designing my rods for the production format has given me the opportunity to actually improve them. Many aspects of construction and design from the blank itself to the latest original brand-name componentry are now better than ever before! This has resulted in a range of lure fishing rods with very specific action and power, amazing balance, increased sensitivity, and a whole new level of performance!
I'm looking forward to being able to provide many more anglers with a fishing rod that can take their experience to the next level... by using a Millerod! Enjoy, and tight lines!
