Daiwa 25 Saltiga 35 Overhead Reel

Engineered for serious saltwater anglers, the Daiwa 25 Saltiga 35 Overhead Reel is built to deliver unmatched strength, smoothness, and durability for heavy-duty jigging and deepwater fishing. Designed as the ultimate mid-sized star drag reel, it combines cutting-edge technology with proven performance to handle trophy fish in the toughest offshore conditions.

At its core is Daiwa’s HYPERDRIVE Design, which includes Hyper Armed Housing for rigidity, Hyper Tough Clutch for reliability, and Hyper Double Support for precise gear alignment. The HYPERDRIVE Digigear provides a smoother and stronger winding sensation with exceptional gear durability, even under extreme load.

The UTD (Ultimate Tournament Drag) system delivers an impressive 13kg of fish-stopping power, using carbon washers, stainless steel, and alloy drag plates for smooth, consistent pressure. Magsealed Ball Bearings protect critical areas from saltwater intrusion, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Available in both right-hand wind (25 Saltiga 35) and left-hand wind (25 Saltiga 35L), this reel is ideal for targeting kingfish, amberjack, coral trout, and other hard-fighting pelagic and reef species. Whether slow-pitch jigging, live baiting, or deepwater bottom fishing, the 25 Saltiga 35 is built to help you land your next personal best.
