(JDM) Daiwa 22 Saltiga 15 Overhead Jigging Reel

Saltiga 15 is the ultimate compact star drag overhead. Ideally suited to a wide variety of light jigging situations, the compact size and newly designed thumb rest frame design make the reel comfortable to palm over many hours of repetitive jigging.

HYPERDRIVE DESIGN is equipped in Saltiga 15 to maximise the reels performance under heavy load, HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR increases gear strength and efficiency making this reel incredibly easy to wind.

HYPER ARMED HOUSING and HYPER TOUGH CLUTCH both combine for a solid feeling reel maximising confidence when in use. 8kg of ATD drag with click mechanism provides enough stopping power for even large reef dwelling fish that pull hard to get back down.

 

15-SJ/15L-SJ
15H-SJ/15HL-SJ

This special edition reel, developed in collaboration with Kazunari Shimizu, offers a refined version of the standard model.
Equipped with an 85-95mm carbon crank handle arm as standard, it was developed to achieve a balance of maneuverability and lightweight tackle. Its line capacity of 400m of PE3 or 600m of PE2 makes it ideal for targeting kingfish, Japanese amberjack, yellowfin tuna, and inshore amberjack, as well as mid-deepwater species like razorfish and black porgy. The standard gear (gear ratio 6.3) provides a convenient 103cm winding length per handle rotation for a reel of this size. The 6.3 gear ratio provides impressive reeling power, allowing you to close the gap with larger fish. A high gear (gear ratio 7.1) is also available. The winding length per handle rotation is 115cm. When using a large amount of line in deep water or drift fishing, the spool's available line capacity decreases, shortening the winding length per handle rotation. This model is perfect for slow jigging in such situations. With its fast reeling speed, it is also useful in situations where you want to cast the jig far and give it a long fall.

ATD DRAG

Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System results in a smoother drag from the initial hook up.

MAGSEALED BEARINGS

MagSeal protection is no longer just for the main shaft and rotor of a reel with MagSealed Ball Bearings providing ultimate protection for the most at risk location such as the engine side plate and line roller.

HYPERDRIVE DESIGN

HYPERDRIVE Design consists of four of the key pillars. Hyper Armed Housing, Hyper Tough Clutch, Hyper Double Support & HYPERDRIVE Digigear.

HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR

HYPERDRIVE Digigear is the next evolution of baitcast gear design, taking Daiwa’s Digigear concept delivering a smoother and stronger reeling sensation with a significant 60% improvement to gear durability.
