Daiwa Saltist Travel Spin Rod Collection: Performance Without Limits

The Daiwa Saltist Travel Rod Collection represents the pinnacle of multi-section rod engineering, providing globetrotting anglers with true, uncompromising performance. This high-spec collection effortlessly betrays their multi-section assembly, offering actions and responsiveness that rival premium two-piece saltwater rods. Each model packs down into a compact, protective holdall, ensuring your high-performance gear travels safely in your luggage.

Uncompromising Blank Technology

The secret to the Saltist Travel Rod’s phenomenal strength and smooth curve lies in the integration of Daiwa’s top blank technologies, which eliminate the “dead spots” traditionally found in multi-section rods.

Technology Specification Benefit to the Angler
HVF (High Volume Fibre) Carbon High-density carbon fibre with reduced resin content. Creates an incredibly lightweight, sensitive, and powerful blank for all-day casting without fatigue.
X45 Technology Carbon fibres layered at a $45^{\circ}$ bias. Eliminates blank twist during powerful casts and fish fights, ensuring maximum casting accuracy and power transfer.
3DX Carbon 3-Dimensional interwoven carbon fabric applied externally. Acts as an exoskeleton to dramatically boost the rod’s buckling strength and lifting power under extreme load.
V-Joint Technology Patented spigot joint using bias carbon materials. Ensures the rod sections flex seamlessly under pressure, delivering the smooth curve and strength of a one-piece rod.

Collection Overview

The collection is meticulously tailored to handle a wide range of lure sizes and fishing scenarios, from light inshore work to heavy offshore casting.

Model Length Casting Weight Sections Ideal Use
7′ 4pc 14g to 42g 4-Piece Mainstream lure sizes; inshore and bass fishing.
8′ 5pc 14g to 42g 5-Piece Extra-compact model for light-to-medium casting distance.
6’5″ 4pc 28g to 84g 4-Piece Shorter heavy-action for vertical jigging or working heavier plugs close-in.
8’6″ 4pc 80g to 140g 4-Piece Heavy-action for long-range casting of big lures, jigs, and poppers (e.g., tuna, GTs).

Premium Components and Portability

Every rod in the Saltist Travel series is fitted with high-quality components designed for sustained saltwater use:

  • Fuji ‘O’ Ring Guides: Durable ceramic guides ensure smooth line flow, minimize friction, and handle the heat generated by powerful braided lines during extended fights.

  • Rubber Gimbal: Featured on the butt end for secure seating in a fighting belt, providing leverage and reducing fatigue when battling large, hard-running species.

  • Multi-Section Assembly: All rods feature a multi-section assembly for a compact pack-down, making them the ideal suitcase-friendly choice for international fishing trips.
