Product Description
UNMATCHED STRENGTH FOR JIGGING ENTHUSIASTS
Dive into saltwater jigging with the Daiwa Saltiga J Rod, where precision casting meets the raw power needed for battling the ocean's toughest fighters. This rod is not just a tool; it's an extension of your angling prowess, designed for those who demand the best from their gear.
Crafted with precision and innovation, the Saltiga J Rod features a high-performance blank constructed from premium materials. This ensures a lightweight yet incredibly responsive rod that handles heavy jigging lures effortlessly. The advanced action provides optimal sensitivity, allowing you to feel every subtle strike and detect even the most elusive bites.
It’s been a long time since Daiwa released a standalone jigging-specific SALTIGA series, but the wait has been worth it. The series has been completely redesigned from the ground up, featuring new technology and features like the brand-new POWER HOLD reel seat. It all starts with the blank, and for the first time in a series like this, Daiwa has implemented SVF Nanoplus carbon. This higher-grade carbon not only makes the rods incredibly lightweight, but those same properties enhance the blank's recovery. The most striking feature of the new SALTIGA J series is the new POWER HOLD reel seat, which features on the five spinning models. Daiwa’s POWER HOLD reel seat is a new take on a largely neglected part of most heavier saltwater fishing rods. SALTIGA J series rods are equipped with FUJI titanium-framed SiC guides. The reduced weight of titanium compared to stainless steel further reduces the total weight, more importantly increasing the blank's recovery to aid in lure action. FUJI GRC gimbal butt caps also feature to allow anglers to use the rods with their favourite gimbal belt.
Featuring five spinning models and three overhead models in the range, 25 SALTIGA J will be your go-to choice for a new bottom fishing or jigging rod. Available in a range of powers from PE2-4 through to deep-sea monster taming PE6-8 models and featuring some throwback actions that keen Daiwa enthusiasts should recognise, like Combi Jerk and Hiramasa 63 actions. There will surely be a SALTIGA J to suit your chosen style of heavy saltwater fishing.

Daiwa Saltiga J Rod Features
- X45 FULL SHIELD: X45X Full Shield Technology is 25% more efficient than standard X45 technology. With increased torsional stiffness, blanks armed with X45X resist blank twist during casting & jigging. This characteristic prevents the blank from losing stored energy during the cast, ensuring that every bit of force you put into your cast, is transferred through the blank and ultimately to your chosen lure.
- ZERO_SEAT: Daiwa's new reel seat concept features a highly palpable design for ultimate comfort and functionality in both spin, baitcasting and overhead reels.
- COMPLETE CONTROL: Complete Control grip changes the design of both the butt & foregrip. The butt is designed at a unique angle, this angle has been optimized at the perfect angle to maximise surface area contact to your body when hooked up. The foregrip features a uniquely shaped trigger imprint to the leading edge, this naturally finds your finger resting perfectly on this trigger when locked into a fight under heavy drag pressures. These small changes in grip design give a real-world benefit to the angler in fishing conditions.
- FUJI REEL SEAT: Light, strong and true to the famous brand's reputation for quality and class, Fuji reel seats deliver on performance and value.
- SVF NANOPLUS: Through the use of nano resin technology, SVF Nanoplus blanks are lighter and have increased sensitivity over standard SVF blanks due to their higher carbon density.
- FUJI GUIDES: SiC has been the gold standard of guide ring material for over 20 years. Super hard, light, and highly polished and smooth, SiC guides are an excellent dissipater of heat making them ideal for light drags and/or big fish
