Daiwa Saltiga 200 Bay Jigging Reel

The Daiwa Saltiga BJ Reels has been designed for Bay Jigging styles. This consists of fishing directly below your boat with slow almost minimalist animations on the lure. Ideally suited for Madai Jig rigs the reel lends itself to any slow vertical styles with big soft baits, live baits or slow jigging. The latest generation ATD drag system is lubricated with a new composite that activates the drag rapidly and keeps it smooth and steady when playing fish. This greatly reduces the risk of line breaks on the bite. The drag can be adjusted very precisely thanks to the large and solid single-piece star lever. Unusually for a baitcasting reel, the drag clicks when it starts running - like a spinning reel! As well as the automatic anti-reverse the reel features a mechanical anti-reverse lock to guarantee total locking of the spool when playing hard fighting fish. The oval body shape is designed to be held comfortably and securely in your palm.The single piece aluminium body cut on a digital machine houses an exceptional mechanism guided by a MagSealed magnetic drive. The Hyper Digigear pinion is made from salt resistant C6191 ultra-strong bronze and the line guide and gears are synchronised for perfect line lay.FEATURES:MAGSEALEDMAGSEALED oil is a magnetic oil that uses aerospace technology to protect reel components and guarantee smooth rotation. The new MAGSEALED bearings have been designed to last longer than ever. The balls are encapsulated in a completely waterproof bearing. The inner and outer rings are magnetised and joined by waterproof and stable MAGSEALED oil. The cage runs smoother and is protected from impurities. This means that the reel's initial performance will be indefinitely preserved. The smoothness is beyond comparison to a waterproof industrial bearing: MAGSEALED oil removes the need for a joint, meaning you won't detect any friction on the wind. These MAGSEALED bearings are placed either side of the drive gear in our flagship reels, so you can activate them with the slightest turn of the handle for optimum winding smoothness. The concept has been miniaturised to apply to the roller on some of our reels.ATD DragThe ATD boasts discs which have been impregnated with a specialist grease to optimise energy yield. This exceptionally high-quality product gives more grinding power at the start and offers a more stable and progressive drag. The risk of breaking off on the fight is kept to a minimum as the ATD adjusts to every phase of the fight: working faster and more progressively on the first run but offering a firmer hold for cranking power in the middle phase. Its this adaptive feature that gives it its Automatic name.Super Metal BodyAluminium is the most rigid reel component material. Daiwa's engineers have specially treated the metal to form an optimal micro-layer of stainless aluminium.Hyper DigigearThis is an evolution of the Digigear made with precision tooling of C6191 marine bronze for a gear thats both light and 1.6x tougher than Dura-aluminium.Infinite Anti ReverseThe new Infinite Anti Reverse system is activated with 4 times less force than a classic system. Less than 2g is needed to engage the Real Stopper system which eliminates any handle movement, bringing sensitivity to the next level.CRBBHigh quality anticorrosion ball bearings with a lifespan 10 times greater than a standard bearing.MagForce ZThe second generation of Daiwa's magnetic drag. The Magforce-Z intelligently controls the intensity of the magnetic fields throughout the cast to maximise casting distance.Click DragA drag system which produces a sound when a fish runs. Rediscover the clicker on your spinning and baitcasting reels for unrivalled fishing pleasure.Double Infinite Anti-ReverseA mechanical anti reverse reinforces the standard infinite reverse for heavy fishing.Power Gripping ConceptOptimal reel grip on the fight thanks to this intelligent, ergonomic design which positions the reel closer to the rod.ATD (Automatic Tournament Drive) drag technology with audible clickerBearings : 10 + 1 including 9 CRBB and 1 Mag SealedBody and side plates in single piece aluminiumAnodised blue aluminium spool with a 36mm diameterAluminium handle with 1 custom aluminium knob equipped with 2 bearingsHandle on left for right-handed anglers, supplied in cloth case
