Diawa saltist 20 reveiw

#1 Post by bigsod »

Built like a tank,but capable of casting a bait a fair way the Saltist 20 is a top rough ground reel that is also at home on the boat for light to medium fishing. Boasting a huge line capacity as well as a powerfull handle and an impressive click drag system this reel wont let you down when hauling in heavy loads or bullying fish out of rough ground. Again like most quality gear its not cheap but will last the test of time and wont let you down when you need it most. I have used and abused mine for 3 years and they still look as fresh as when I got them. If your looking for one reel to cover all aspects of shore fishing as well as some boat fishing bar the realy heavy stuff this is the one.
