Review Molix Millerighe EVO, Vintage
The Millerighe are Egis that have reached more and more anglers who practice spinning and catch the cephalopods, both from the shore and from the boat. Personally, I have always used them, achieving remarkable fishmongers from the shore and catching big cephalopods, both squid and cuttlefish. At the moment there are two types of Egis; EVO and Vintage. The Evo are differentiated by the use of the Keimura fabrics. The Vintage instead resume the combination of colors between the shell and the fabrics that have made the history of the eging.
General features: the Millerighe is a shaped Egi, aesthetically incorporates the carapace of a shrimp with a catchy line. The coating is extremely resistant to the cephalopod bites and it is obtained using high quality fabrics; Keimura in the series “EVO” is characterized by the ability to reflect the UV rays that can reach the deeper layers of water.The colors, obtained through the combination of the shell and the fabrics, are varied, for all tastes and uses, according to the conditions of the light and the water; translucent, glow, realistic, and rich in the color contrasts. All colors also have special glows, the bands before the baskets or the glow border of the eyes; which increases its attractiveness.The slender shape, compact and the perfect balance help to cast the egis at long distances, essential if you are fishing from the coast, to “hit” more water.
The basket: the basket used for both the series is wide and it guarantees safe and precise hooks settings, reducing the possibility to loose the fish during the retrieval. The needles mounted staggered between the two baskets are extremely thin and sharp and they are made of carbon and treated with a special anti-rust product that improves its resistance. This feature also greatly improves the trim in the water. The lure is very balanced while it is sinking, in the stop position on the bottom and it is reactive to the jerks.
When to use a millerighe?
This is a question that can be taken for granted but there is a basic and technical answer that turns out to be scientific for those who devote much of their time in practicing eging.
The millerighe, both the 2.5 version and above all the 3.0 size, are lures that stand out for the long castings. It is clear that this characteristic represents an extra gear in the case of the side wind or even worse frontal wind. This allows us to fishing in optimal conditions and to reach wanted distances in favorable conditions.
The distance in the cephalopod spinning can be providential. In many spots the squid hunt far from the shore and this may represent a strategic advantage. The same is for the cuttlefish, the more water we have to fathom, the easier it is to intercept more cephalopods.
The Millerighe do not fear the current at all, rather they manage it optimally allowing you to not to lose contact with the bottom or the water layer of our interest. The Millerighe represent the right compromise between the shallow and deep modes; they reach the bottom at the right speed in relation to the conditions, resulting extremely versatile. This feature allows to easily reach the desired water layer in case of previous strikes in the same point. The spots exposed to sea currents, represent the ideal habitat of the cephalopods.
My experience leads me to say that the Millerighe, not by chance are the most used and capturing egi in the Strait of Messina, where I live. A highly complicated stretch of sea because of the impetuous currents. Personally I have never given up their use, indeed for those who attend deep and challenging spots they certainly represent an extra gear, in many cases the real secret to collect unexpected chores.

Review of the Skirmjan rod MSK-SW-962H “Shore Jigging Special”
The shore jigging is a technique that,in the last years, found more and more support among the Italian anglers. It is practiced especially in coastal spots, where, due to currents or because of the bathymetries that degrade very quickly towards the abysses, predators and pelagic,that can be catched with this technique,live; especially tunas, amberjack, lecce amia or fish more related to benthic environments, such as snappers and groupers, without forgetting the dream predators like the swordfish and the imperial needlefish.
Our country has many coasts and spots that have nothing to envy to the Croatian or to the Aegean Sea spots where this technique has been practiced for a longer time. The coasts of ours beautiful Italy and its islands have an extension of 7458 km! There are litorals of a great geological and naturalistic value with cliffs overlooking the sea, pristine cliffs easily reachable , all also anthropized by the presence of moles, ports, dams, as well as beaches characterized by deep bathymetric areas, such as the Ionian, Sicilian and Calabrian coasts. Furthermore, our country is located in a strategic position on the migratory routes of all the pelagic species that make cyclical shifts in the Mediterranean.
Many of these species transit compulsorily in the Strait of Messina, where I live and I have been practicing shore jigging for a few years. This stretch of sea, of our splendid Mediterranean sea is unique because of the impetuous currents that alternate every six hours, connecting two seas with salinity and different temperatures; the Ionian and the Tirreno sea.
Taking into account the most varied needs of all the fans of this technique and especially depending on the spots that they frequent, Molix designed a very versatile fishing rod for the Mediterranean shore jigging. The Skirmjan MSK-SW-962H is a two-section rod 2.92 meters long, with a casting weight of up to 100 grams and a max drag of 8 kilos. Its action,”Regular slow”, classic for this type of gear, is round and deep, with a large reserve of power, to facilitate the fighting with the big predators .
The “soft” and sensitive tip allows a perfect management of metal jigs but also sinking stick baits or floating and big jerk minnows.
As a guarantee of great power, this Skirmjan belongs to the “Power Series ” family; tools created through a particular process of reinforcement of the raw material that
allows the most extreme use even with over sized fish!
Returning to the characteristics of the tip, the softness, as well as increasing its sensitivity allows a better management of metal jigs, even on challenging backdrops over -40 meters; especially for those who love to retrieve the jig with repeated jerks.
This sensitivity is also enhanced in the case of timid attacks of predators that are all perceived by the fisherman. At the same time, the “back” of this rod is extremely reactive and it guarantees a ready hook setting.
Who will hold for the first time this shore jigging rod, will immediately perceive a lot power and pleasure to use it in fishing; an ideal casting weight for our spots and a
fair compromise between power, length and lightness.
An ideal rod for all the spots that are exposed to the strong wind. A little stress during the Twists is an aspect not to be underestimated especially for those who frequent and fish on high cliffs that are areas exposed to strong side winds, sea formed or with strong currents.
Another aspect not to be underestimated is the distance that is obtained with the casting;it is really a point of strength of this rod, fundamental especially in the presence of frenezy.
In coclusion, a small technical note: to better appreciate all these features, I suggest a reel not heavier than 600g of weight.
