Daiwa Saltist Star Drag Conventional Reel – SALTIST20H

The Daiwa Saltist Star Drag Conventional reel, model SALTIST20H, is a durable and high-performing fishing reel. It is constructed with machined aluminum and anodized for maximum corrosion resistance, ensuring its longevity. This series consists of 6 reels that can hold line classes ranging from 12 to 40 lb. test mono, and they are also strong enough to handle braid sizes up to 80 lb.

The drag system of this reel is capable of applying up to 25 lbs. of pressure to the spool, allowing for powerful control over your catch. Additionally, it offers a true freespool feature, enabling longer casts in different conditions. This unrestricted spool payout is particularly useful for fishing with live bait.

With a gear ratio of 6.4 to 1, this reel is fast enough for jigging while still providing the strength needed to handle larger fish. Despite its high performance, the Daiwa Saltist Star Drag Conventional Reels are competitively priced.

These reels come with a range of features, including a maximum drag pressure of 17 to 25 pounds (ideal for braided line), built-in machined aluminum bodies with anodized finishes for enhanced resistance against corrosion, an extremely smooth freespool, 4 stainless steel ball bearings, and a roller bearing. The 6.4:1 gear ratio allows for quicker reeling and the centrifugal braking system ensures control and longer casting distance.
