Daiwa – Saltiga Single Speed Lever Drag Reels

Description

The 2020 Daiwa Saltiga Single-Speed Lever Drag family is serious saltwater machinery for anglers who want a compact, fast, exceptionally smooth conventional reel without giving up true offshore strength. Every model starts with a rigid one-piece machined-aluminum frame and side plate, a machined aluminum spool, corrosion-resistant ball bearings and oversized stainless DigiGears. The result is precise gear alignment, less flex under heavy drag and a powerful, nearly silent retrieve when a fish is digging.

The star of the package is Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag (ATD). It is engineered to reduce start-up resistance, then maintain steady pressure through the fight—exactly what you want around light leaders, hard-running tuna or a sudden surge at the boat. The compact 10H, 15H and 20H are excellent high-speed Northeast inshore and light-offshore tools; the 35H and 40H step into stout jigging, live-bait and canyon-ready work; the purpose-built 35JH is the standout for vertical jigging; and the high-speed 50HS/60H cover sailfish-style speed, wahoo and larger offshore applications. This is a premium lever-drag platform for anglers who value smooth drag performance, durable construction and direct, no-nonsense power.
