DAIWA Saltist 89XHB

Swinging to the limit is exhilarating! The new era of bait SW rods.

A new standard for SW lure bait rods has emerged, designed exclusively for PE line use.

The rod designed exclusively for PE line has a stiffness that controls tip wobble and a design that smoothly loads lure weight onto the butt, allowing the rod to bend and snap back quickly, propelling the lure forward. Even during a full cast, the tip doesn't flutter, the line flows smoothly, and the lure projects forward. Naturally, this increases casting distance and precision dramatically.

They are matched perfectly with the SALTIST reel, tuned specifically to enable confident, unrestricted casting. The rods are designed with castability in mind and feature tubular tops throughout the range.

The models 74LB/711MLB are designed with a straight joint configuration that allows sharp, powerful casts. The 84MB/92HB/89XHB models are designed with a reverse joint configuration, ensuring that the lure fully loads the rod from the butt, enhancing the overall power and control during casting. This new lineup offers versatility and robust performance for a wide range of saltwater bait casting applications.
