Daiwa Saltiga 25 Spinning Reel – Compact Power, Built for Big Battles
The Daiwa Saltiga 25 is the latest addition to the legendary Saltiga spinning reel family, engineered for anglers who demand compact strength without sacrificing performance. Designed with offshore and heavy inshore fishing in mind, the Saltiga 25 is perfect for jigging, popping, or chasing hard-fighting species such as tuna, kingfish, and GTs. It’s a reel that brings the trusted Saltiga DNA into a nimble, 8000-size frame packed with cutting-edge technology and unrelenting strength.
At the heart of the Saltiga 25 is Daiwa’s renowned Monocoque (MQ) body – a solid, one-piece aluminum frame that increases strength and rigidity while eliminating traditional side plates. This design not only reduces flex under pressure but also allows for a larger main gear for improved torque and smoothness. Combined with the G1 Duralumin drive gear and a Zaion Air Rotor, the Saltiga 25 delivers ultra-smooth cranking power that’s built to last.
The ATD (Automatic Tournament Drag) system provides consistent, butter-smooth drag pressure, essential when fighting powerful pelagics or turning big fish in structure-heavy environments. With up to 25kg of max drag and a super-fast line retrieve, the Saltiga 25 keeps you in control even in the most demanding fights.
Daiwa has also equipped this reel with Magsealed bearings and body construction, preventing saltwater intrusion for unmatched corrosion resistance and long-lasting durability. Whether you're fishing the reefs of WA, casting at bust-ups in the bay, or jigging deep offshore ledges, the Saltiga 25 is engineered to thrive in Australia's harshest fishing environments.
