Daiwa Saltist Jigging II Rod

Daiwa's complete Saltist Jigging range has been re-studied and re-designed, taking into consideration the multiple, technical opinions of passionate fishermen. Daiwa utilized the latest technological innovations in rod construction, combined them with advanced design and manufacturing techniques, hence the Daiwa Saltist range provides the optimum combination of strength, power, sensitivity and value for money.

The Daiwa Saltist is a versatile jigging rod ideal for Dentex and Amberjack. You will find the deep action of the Daiwa Saltist particularly useful in most jigging fishing styles in the Mediterranean. Its progressive action is comfortable on 2/3 in tip and the heel makes it possible to face powerful rushes of the big fish. At the base of the heel is a Fuji GRC Monobloc Gimbal.

Built ultra tough from high modulus carbon, it features Fuji K Alconite guides, Fuji reel seat and tough EVA grips for maximum power. Its soft, light tip action will work a jig effectively and when hooked up the strong butt section will move fish away from any structure quickly. Get out there and fish.

Daiwa Technologies

X45: This manufacturing process is the superposition of spiral carbon fibers (90 °), unidirectional fibers (0 °) on three layers and two carbon layers laid by two opposite helical windings (45 °). These two additional crosswinds gave the name of Bias Cross Wrap. The X45 carbon winding adopts an elasticity and a return to the initial shape whatever the angle of the loading of the blank.

HVF: Reduction of the quantity of resin and increase of the degree of adhesion of the carbon fibers during the hot polymerization phase.

Fuji K rings: This form of FUJI reinforcement offers  anti-entangling rings that prevent accidental looping of the braid during throws. The crosswind is often responsible for the formation of knots around the first ring that can cause breakage of the line and loss of the leader. The FUJI K rings correct this problem thanks to an ingenious design of the ring reinforcement.
