Graphiteleader's Calamaretti UX Omorig is a rod specifically designed for Omorig (a variant of Ika Metal). This specialized boat squid-fishing technique is now considered essential in modern Ika Metal fishing. Designed for "supported casting", it lets you reach areas that standard Ika Metal rigs can't effectively cover and confidently handle strong current, offering a real advantage during tough bites and when targeting big squid that are wary of natural or artificial light. The blank is built with high-modulus carbon, creating a structure that is slim, lightweight and powerful, maintaining responsiveness and control even with heavier sinkers. The butt section is reinforced with Graphite Cross LV, a technology that improves resistance to twisting and crushing, reduces overall weight, and delivers a solid, well-balanced feel during casting and retrieving. The tubular tip provides a fast, precise response, preventing collapse even with heavy sinkers, while the MH-class handle power ensures the strength needed to manage Omorig presentations and fight big cephalopods. The Calamaretti UX Omorig is fitted with Fuji SiC stainless-steel guides on the tip, while all the others are Fuji SiC-S for optimal line control. The high-precision spigot joint ensures a smooth and natural bend. The lightweight VSS reel seat offers comfort and sensitivity, while the split EVA grip guarantees durability, lightness and maximum control on the water. The result is a reliable, high-performing, easy-to-use rod, ideal both for anglers approaching this technique for the first time and as a second rod for experienced fishermen, or as the perfect companion to a metal sutte setup. Renewed in design and materials, the Calamaretti UX Omorig is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a modern, technical and versatile squid rod that delivers top performance in any situation, with the quality and reliability that define the Calamaretti series.
