Designed specifically for modern squid anglers using very traditional techniques, the Bassterra XT+ Eging offers refined sensitivity, crisp responsiveness and smooth fighting power. The moderate-fast action is perfectly suited to Eging techniques, allowing precise lure control, accurate hook-setting power and long, precise casts to cover more water with confidence.

If squid fishing is your passion and you want a rod that really sharpens your performance, the Bassterra XT+ Eging is designed to deliver. It combines finesse, sensitivity and technical precision, giving you the advantage when it matters most. Built from High Modulus Full Carbon and enhanced with Diaflash technology, it offers exceptional feedback to detect even the lightest takes, as well as the control needed to work EGI lures with precision and confidence. The fast, responsive tip lets you react instantly, turning subtle takes into solid hook-ups. Smooth under pressure and surprisingly lightweight, the rod feels perfectly balanced in the hand, making it a pleasure to use during long sessions from quays, harbours and rocky shores.

At the heart of the Bassterra XT+ Eging is a lightweight, high-modulus Full Carbon blank, reinforced with Diaflash construction to improve strength, responsiveness, lifting power and overall durability. This advanced design allows the rod to load efficiently for long-distance casting, while retaining the finesse and sensitivity needed to detect delicate squid takes, often felt as a slight resistance or a tap. The moderate-fast action is specifically suited to Eging, with a responsive tip that brings EGI lures to life with sharp lifts and controlled drops. This ensures precise lure presentation and maximum control at every stage of the retrieve. At the same time, the rod retains enough power in the lower section to ensure solid hook-ups and handle larger squid with confidence.

Premium components further enhance performance, including Fuji K-Type Fazlite stainless steel guides for smooth, tangle-free line flow, a Fuji TVS reel seat for a secure and comfortable grip, and a short, ergonomic split EVA handle that reduces fatigue during repetitive casting and jerking movements. Reliable, responsive and purposeful, it is a perfect choice for serious squid anglers.
