DAIWA 23 Saltiga 4000-H

BREAK YOUR RECORD - Seize and catch your dreams -
"Someday, catch that fish." SALTIGA was born to make anglers' dreams come true. It inherits the strongest genes of DAIWA offshore and continues to evolve with the latest technology.
The premise is to confront unknown large fish. It continues to challenge the limits of tackle, pursuing strength in every area, ease of use, and superior performance. Saltiga is expected to be a tackle that will surely bring you closer to your dream fish. Continuing to fulfill its purpose in existence means that anglers' dreams will come true. Its reliable performance supports the dreams of anglers all over the world.

A new era of high spec reels with "overwhelming power and toughness" and "rotation and operability" to catch "the biggest fish class trophies" and "personal records" in "battlefields" (fields with high human pressure) where the value of a single fish is high! Equipped with a large diameter G1 duralumin MC (machine cut) tough digital gear on a full metal (made of aluminum) monocoque body, it achieves exceptional "winding strength" and "gear strength". The aluminum AIRDRIVE ROTOR, which combines "toughness" and "low inertia" at a high level, brings increased underwater information such as changes in the underwater tide and changes in the lure's behavior due to fish following, giving anglers an overwhelming advantage in technical big game targeting. "BREAK YOUR RECORD" The all-new SALTIGA 4000/5000/6000 will open up a new era of SW games!

G1 duralumin MC (machine cut) tough digital gear
In addition to its high rigidity, the monocoque body (MQ) allows the drive gear to be expanded to its limits, and is equipped with a G1 duralumin MC (machine cut) tough digital gear that boasts 1.3 times the strength of extra-super duralumin, resulting in an incredibly tough reel. The MQ body and large diameter gear give it exceptional "winding strength" and "gear strength".

Manual return
In order to completely prevent the bail from flipping back when casting and to improve durability, a manual return mechanism is used that prevents the bail from flipping back when the handle is turned.

Rotor brake
This mechanism brakes the rotation of the rotor when the bail is opened, preventing the bail from accidentally flipping over due to the handle moving from the shock of casting.

Lower volume guide line
The spool comes with a guide line for easy winding.
*The amount of thread wound from the guide line is 1/3 to 2/3 of the maximum amount of thread.
*When you are using less thread, wind it down to the guide line.

Stopperless body
The body structure has been simplified by removing the stopper. The decision to remove the stopper, which is a route for water and foreign objects to enter, not only improves waterproof performance but also minimizes the risk of sudden trouble when dealing with large fish or in harsh environments, which are required of the 23 SALTIGA4000/5000/6000.

Handle
For the 4000/5000 sizes, which are primarily used for light shore casting and offshore games, we use the 65mm.
For the 6000 size, which is intended for big fish, we use the 70mm.

Aluminum round knob
The 4000 size is used mainly for light shore casting and offshore games, and the aluminum round knob S size = Φ39mm (compatible with S size knobs) is used.
The 5000 size is used for lures that are larger and heavier than the 4000 size, and the 6000 size is used for targeting large fish, and the aluminum round knob L size = Φ42mm (compatible with S size knobs) is used.

Explanation
PE2-300m Gear ratio 5.7
Particularly recommended for shore casting games using PE around No. 1 - No. 2 and light offshore jigging games using SLJ rods. Also suitable for popular boat-based Spanish mackerel games.
High-rigidity full metal (AL) monocoque body and large-diameter G1 duralumin MC Tough Digigear realize high winding torque that you would not expect from a high-gear spinning reel.
In order to achieve high operability, the 4000 size uses ultra-super duralumin, which combines low specific gravity and high strength, for the main shaft, and the center of gravity of the reel is balanced toward the angler.
