DAIWASaltist Star Drag Conventional Reel

Al llegar mi paquete no venia bien ya que trae un carrete chino barato dentro de la caja de mi saltist

So like stated these seem to be newer version of the Saltist B&G. but for bit more $ new color and handle for about $20 more then what B&G was. Still same drag and gear ratio and sizes available. i use them for all around from live baiting for cobia and striper to trolling for mackeral/ tuna of shore clicker is nice and loud. new handles are softer seem like you can get more power with less resistance then the football knob. i got 4 shipped only had to send one back was missing the bag of goodies with the reel seat clamp and maintenance tool. order 5 to replace that one which had it all in there. i spooled 500yards of 65lb grand jbraid which the old saltist i spooled 500 of the 65lb regular jbraid so spool holding about same. only CON you can get a Penn Fathom 40nld Lever drag for around the same price and put same amount of line on it and have more drag and bit faster gear ratio. But I'm a Daiwa Junkie so these will do.

This is my new favorite reelIt replaces my Trinidad TN16 and 16AThese cast very well and are of high Quality Very smooth and quiet. I have them in 20H, 30H, 35H, 35P, 40H, 40P I think offering them in both gear ratio’s is a great idea one high speed ( the “H” ) for jigs and a low speed ( the “P” ) for bait/ rockfish...the 35P is my new Rockfish/ lingcod reel the 5.1:1 gear ratio is spot on for this use.... the 35 size hold 375yds of 65# 832 Sufix braid that’s my line of choice it’s quite and easy on your guides and quite strong although you do need to be good at your braid knots it’s slippery lineBut the Daiwa Saltist Star line of reels is by a long shot the best bang for the buck....
