Built for serious offshore anglers, the Daiwa 20 Saltiga LD is a premium lever-drag overhead reel engineered to handle demanding saltwater conditions and hard-fighting fish. Developed with extensive input from anglers around the world, the Saltiga LD combines exceptional strength, smooth drag performance and precise control in a rugged package.
At its core is a precisely machined one-piece aluminium body and side plates, providing a rigid foundation for the reel’s powerful internal components. Stainless steel drive and pinion gears deliver outstanding durability, strength and resistance to corrosion, while maintaining smooth and powerful operation.
The redesigned lever-drag system provides precise drag adjustment, including excellent control at lighter settings for live-bait applications. Daiwa’s ATD Drag system is designed to deliver smooth, consistent pressure when a fish makes a powerful run, while the machine-cut alloy construction keeps weight under control without compromising strength.
Available in a range of single- and two-speed models from size 10 through 60, the 20 Saltiga LD is suited to everything from lighter offshore work and jigging through to deep-water and heavy tackle applications. With stainless steel gearing, CRBB bearings, lever drag and serious stopping power, the Saltiga LD is built to perform when the fish get serious.
