A Multi-Piece Casting Rod Built to Face Big Fish Around the World

The stage is the entire world.

With the global ocean as your field and no boundaries of country or species, SALTIGA EXPEDITION helps you achieve truly unforgettable catches.

Daiwa Technologies

X45 Full Shield (X45 Cobra Shield)

A structure that reinforces the entire blank with 45° carbon bias cross from the tip section—the area most prone to twisting—wrapped from the outermost layer.
This dramatically increases anti-twist rigidity, allowing superior casting accuracy and unlocking the rod’s full performance potential.

V-JOINT α

Using high-strength Nanoalloy® material at the joints and Daiwa’s precision engineering, V-JOINT α further evolves the original V-JOINT, making it stronger, lighter, and smoother in bending.
The thinner, more compact joint design improves swing-out speed and overall operability—especially important in repeated casting situations.

HVF NANOPLUS

High-density HVF carbon reduces resin content while increasing carbon fiber density—ideal for rods requiring strength and resilience.
Combined with Toray’s Nanoalloy® Technology through Daiwa’s proprietary manufacturing, it delivers even higher strength and lighter weight.
