Daiwa Saltist Spin Reel 6500

Saltist Spin
The long awaited spinning reel version of the Saltist overhead reels is finally here. These reels are built to handle ultra-strong braided lines, so they need to have an amazingly powerful waterproof drag system, and that they do. With such power the Saltist needs to be strong, so to eliminate body flex the frame and side plate is constructed of rigid aluminium alloy which supports Daiwa’s famous Digigear drive system, perfectly meshed to eliminate wear and tear. This combined with Daiwa’s exclusive CRBB bearings make it incredibly smooth to wind and virtually corrosion free.

Infinite Anti-Reverse
Limits rearward backplay handle movement to almost zero for solid hooksets with less shock to the reel. No handle slap-back on hooksets and no release of slack line.

Super Drag
Cinch it down to horse bass from heavy cover, or click in as fine a setting as you need for lighter lines and fast-moving inshore fish, or to prevent tearing hooks from soft-mouthed species. 

Twist Buster & Twist Buster 2
Twist Buster is Daiwa’s original advanced technology designed to reduce line twist. Powered by the new CRBB (Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearing), the Twist Buster II line roller not only minimises line twist, but also reduces further friction between the line and the roller.

ABS Anti Backlash System
Daiwa’s unique reverse taper results in less line tangle and longer cast-ability. The oversized design provides higher winding speed and better drag
performance.

Air Bail
Daiwa’s innovative bail design featuring a hollow tubular stainless steel bail for maximum rigidity and strength with minimum weight. Due to the smooth,
protrusion-free design of the Air Bail, even loose line common after a cast slides easily down the bail onto the line roller as the reel is turned, without snagging or hanging up.

Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings
Shielded For Extra Protection. Unlike ordinary ‘corrosion resistant’ bearings with an unprotected open race, Daiwa’s CRBB bearings are shielded to seal out sand, fine grit, salt crystals and other abrasives for even longer life.

Digigear
Digital gear design ensures a perfect mesh between ultra-tough, surface treated alloy drive gear and marine bronze pinion gear for optimized speed, power and durabilty.
