Overview
The Daiwa Saltiga LD55 2-Speed Lever Drag Reel (Model: SAGLD55-2SPD) is a premium offshore overhead reel engineered specifically for heavy-duty jigging, deep-water angling, and battling powerful pelagic game fish. Melding a taller, narrower spool design with immense cranking power, it delivers the precise line management required for rapid vertical presentations and grueling, long-drawn-out fights.
Its narrow spool, massive line capacity, and robust internal gearing make it an ideal choice for deep-drop vertical jigging, offering a specialized approach to rigging, drag management, and mechanical operation.
- Dual-Speed System: Features a high gear of 5.2:1 for fast line take-up and jig manipulation, and a low gear of 2.3:1 for raw, mechanical cranking power, allowing for versatile operation during different stages of the retrieve or fight.
- Advanced Tournament Drag (ATD): Delivers 20 kg of maximum drag, utilising specialized low-inertia grease to eliminate startup jerkiness and ensure a completely smooth drag curve during sustained runs, preventing line shock.
- Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings (CRBB): Equipped with 6 CRBB for smooth operation and enhanced durability, ensuring reliable performance in harsh saltwater environments.
- Heavy-Duty Aluminium T-Bar Handle: Provides maximum leverage for powerful retrieves and fighting large game fish, offering comfort and control under pressure.
- Robust Construction: Built with a precisely machined one-piece aluminium body and side plates, along with exceptionally durable stainless steel drive and pinion gears, for lasting performance and reliability.
- Precise Line Management: The taller, narrower spool design aids in precise line lay and management, crucial for rapid vertical jig presentations and efficient line retrieval.
- Infinite Anti-Reverse: Provides immediate hook sets and prevents handle backplay, ensuring solid connections and efficient winding.
