The Daiwa Saltist Star Drag reel is specially designed and manufactured to meet the high demands of the Slow Pitch Jigging technique. It offers exemplary smooth and progressive retrieval, allowing your lure to move completely naturally in the water. Its compact structure ensures the demanding angler absolute control of their lure at any depth, even under heavy loads.

The heart of the mechanism is protected by an extremely rigid body and side cover made of aluminum, which eliminates distortions during battle. Equipped with the advanced ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) brake system and carbon fiber discs, the Saltist delivers consistent, linear, and smooth pressure without dangerous sticking, allowing you to safely handle the strongest and largest fish of the deep.

Designed for hard and intensive use in the demanding environment of the sea, the mechanism incorporates 4 stainless steel CRBB (Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings). These specialized bearings, combined with the specially protective anodized coating of the body, offer multi-level protection from salt and corrosion, keeping the movement of the gears incredibly smooth and silent for many years.

The Saltist Star Drag features a right handle, an aluminum spool, and a centrifugal braking system for optimal line management. It is the ideal universal choice to complement your slow fishing rod. 

Model: 35J (weight 555g, drag 10kg, retrieval 120cm, capacity PE #5.0 / 300m) with a standard gear ratio of 6.4:1.
