SALTIGA LEVER DRAG

SALTIGA 300

Saltiga 300: the ultimate weapon for coastal jigging between power and innovation.

Daiwa Saltiga 300: The Evolution of Coastal Jigging

The quintessential jigging reel is reborn, enhanced by exclusive HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR technology and enriched by a brand new feature: for the first time on a Daiwa model equipped with Level Wind (thread guide), the Spool Lock system is introduced.

The beating heart of the Saltiga 300 is the HYPERDRIVE DIGIGEAR, here implemented with larger gear teeth to ensure smooth and powerful rotational performance, both under light loads and in the most extreme combat phases.

The structure is designed for maximum reliability through the new HYPERDRIVE DESIGN concept, which includes:

  • HYPER DOUBLE SUPP ORT: A dual transmission support system that ensures consistent smoothness and powerful recovery

  • HYPER TOUGH CLUTCH: A new drag system that provides much more precise performance and durability

  • HYPER ARMED HOUSING: A new load-bearing shell that is extremely rigid and strong, with no play between parts.

Ergonomics and Advanced Protection

The design of the Saltiga 300 is unparalleled. The frame adopts the ” Thumb Holding Frame “ system, an ergonomic shape designed to provide exceptional “palming” comfort, overcoming the dimensional limitations of traditional compact reels.

To ensure unprecedented longevity even in the harshest salt environments, the side plate on the crank side is equipped with Anode Protection, which prevents corrosion.

The Saltiga 300 is not just a reel, it is the ultimate weapon: a concentrate of pure power and cutting-edge technology designed to meet the toughest challenges of coastal jigging.

■ ANODE PROTECTION (ANODE PROTECTION)

“Maximum resistance against saltiness” Anode Protection is an advanced system designed to shield the reel from salt corrosion. By taking advantage of a special zinc element that attracts oxidation to itself, the internal structure remains insulated and protected from corrosive agents. This technology concentrates natural wear and tear on an expendable outer plate, preserving the structural integrity and mechanical smoothness of the Saltiga even after years of heavy offshore use.

■ SYNCRO LEVEL WIND (SYNCHRONIZED GUIDE ROLLER)

“Extreme fluidity and total control” The synchronized guide roller follows the position of the line during each recovery and release phase, eliminating friction. This very precise movement ensures flawless drag fluidity, maintaining control even under high loads. By moving the mechanics to the crank side, the new Saltiga 300 achieves revolutionary compactness, offering exceptional “palming” comfort without ever sacrificing power.

■ SPOOL LOCK MECHANISM (SPOOL LOCK)

“Total safety in case of stranding.” The Spool Lock is an essential system in jigging to safely handle strandings on the bottom without stressing the mechanics. Unlike common methods, this block completely disconnects the sprocket from the spool: you can then force the line to break (PE max 3.0) while avoiding transmitting critical stresses to gears and bearings. A smart solution that preserves the alignment of components and the original smoothness of your Saltiga over time.

■ THUMB HOLDING FRAME

“Revolutionary Ergonomics” The body design has been redefined by studying the grip of anglers to ensure absolute comfort. The Thumb Holding Frame provides natural thumb support, making it easier to control the spool and improving grip during combat. A totally new “palming” concept that transforms the way the reel is held.

■ 75-85mm ALUMINIUM HANDLE.

“Power and structural rigidity” The aluminum Crank Handle is designed to withstand the stresses of One-Pitch Jerk and heavy jigging. Thanks to the double adjustment (75mm or 85mm), it is possible to adapt the lever according to the type of fishing. A rigid and powerful structure that ensures consistently smooth retrieval and perfect jig control in every fishing scenario.

■ 85mm T-SHAPE POWER PUMP.

“Grip and control without compromise.” The “T” knob is shaped to provide a perfect anatomical fit at every stage of the action. The thin profile at the base facilitates a two-finger grip during fast jerks, while the upper contact surface provides powerful and stable traction during recovery. Ideal for both classic jigging and Slow variations.
