Shimano Egi Case

Description

Shimano Egi Case | Precision Storage for Squid Specialists

At Gerrys Fishing, we highly recommend the Shimano Egi Case for the dedicated Eging enthusiast. Squid jigs (Egi) are unique lures with delicate cloth finishes and ultra-sharp umbrella hooks that are notorious for tangling in standard tackle boxes. This case is a specialized solution designed to store up to 12 of your favorite jigs in a secure, snag-free environment, making it a must-have for anglers who need to switch colors and sizes quickly to match the squids mood.

Constructed from a tough, clear plastic outer shell and heavy-duty 420D/600D polyester, this case combines high visibility with marine-grade durability.

Technical Design & Squid-Specific Features

• 12-Jig Capacity: The interior is optimized to hold up to 12 jigs, typically accommodating sizes from 2.5 to 4.0. This allows you to carry a full range of colorsfrom natural baitfish patterns to vibrant UV glows.

• Grooved EVA Foam Pad: The heart of the case is the high-density EVA foam lining. The precision-cut grooves allow you to lock the jigs in place, keeping them separated and upright. This prevents the crown hooks from scratching the bodies of adjacent lures, preserving the delicate foil and cloth finishes.

• Clear Identification Shell: The transparent outer shell is a massive advantage on the water. It allows you to see your entire jig collection at a glance without unzipping the case, saving you valuable time during a hot bite.

• Bungee Cord Nylon Zips: Shimano has equipped this case with non-corrosive nylon zippers and easy-to-grip bungee cord pullers. These are designed specifically for saltwater use, ensuring they wont seize up even after constant exposure to sea spray.

• Hosable with Drainage Points: The case is designed to be fully hosable. Integrated drainage points allow you to rinse your jigs with fresh water while they are still in the case. This flushes out salt and grime, allowing the lures to air-dry and preventing hook corrosion.

Use Example: Pier, Rock, and Boat Eging

Imagine you are walking along a pier or balancing on a rocky ledge at dusk. The light is fading, and you notice the squid have stopped hitting your orange jig and are showing interest in a darker, purple profile.

With the Shimano Egi Case, there is no fumbling. You can see your jigs through the clear shell, unzip it quickly with the bungee pullers, and swap lures in seconds. Because the jigs are secured in the EVA grooves, they wont fall out if youre standing on an uneven surface. At the end of the night, you simply take the case home, hose it down, and let it drainyour expensive Sephia or Clinch jigs are clean and ready for the next tide.
