About this rod

The Calista 86M / PF (Power & Finesse) is a high-performance squid rod engineered to deliver exceptional castability, responsiveness and lightness—without the compromises typically associated with power-class models. Rebuilt from the ground up, this blank breaks the mould of conventional 86M egi rods, offering outstanding control, distance and sensitivity for technical anglers.

Power & finesse blank – Strong backbone combined with refined sensitivity and light handling
Exceptional casting distance – High repulsion blank launches egi long distances with ease
Highly responsive control – Precise manipulation of squid jigs using both stillness and movement
Fuji TORZITE titanium guides – Ultra-smooth line flow with SiC titanium RV butt guide for stability
Fuji VSS16 reel seat – Lightweight, comfortable and secure for long sessions
Technical angler focused – Designed for year-round egi fishing where precision matters most
