Daiwa Saltiga BJ 2017 Jigging Reel

This is the new Bay Jigging addition to our Saltiga range. Available only in the smaller 3500 and 4000 sizes, the Saltiga BJ has a Monocoque aluminium body housing a huge disk screwed directly into the body and holding an exceptionally large Hyper Digigear made from marine C6191 bronze – larger than on the Saltiga 2015 3500 and 4000 reels. The body is asymmetrical to optimise the balance between size and power.

The drive itself is protected on either side by Mag Sealed bearings for super-smooth running and increased longevity. High ratios mean the reels crank up to an impressive 1.10m per turn.

The ATD drag is coated in our latest drag grease helping the drag to smoothly power up as required. The disks offer a power gain of 20% over the Certate HD. Couple this with the impressive 65mm handle and round EVA knob, and you can be confident that the Saltiga BJ is up to tackling the hardest fighting fish around!

Specifications:

MAGSEALED oil is a magnetic oil that uses aerospace technology to protect reel components and guarantee smooth rotation.
- The new MAGSEALED bearings have been designed to last longer than ever. The balls are encapsulated in a completely waterproof bearing. The inner and outer rings are magnetised and joined by waterproof and stable MAGSEALED oil. The cage runs smoother and is protected from impurities. This means that the reel’s initial performance will be indefinitely preserved. The smoothness is beyond comparison to a waterproof industrial bearing: MAGSEALED oil removes the need for a joint, meaning you won’t detect any friction on the wind.

- These MAGSEALED bearings are placed either side of the drive gear in our flagship reels, so you can activate them with the slightest turn of the handle for optimum winding smoothness. The concept has been miniaturised to apply to the roller on some of our reels.

- MAGSEALED oil is a magnetic oil that uses aerospace technology to protect internal reel components and guarantee smooth rotation.
MAGSEALED technology is based on a magnetic oil developed by NASA. This liquid joint was originally used for the internal workings of hard drives – providing dustproofing but not waterproofing. Daiwa engineers took on the challenge of creating a waterproof oil, working to control the intensity of the magnetic force. This took hundreds of trials with adjustments down to micron level! The technology has been tried and tested on the water with the world’s top specialists in each discipline, and it has produced a demonstrable gain in the smoothness of rotation.The highly technical Mag Sealed oil is stabilised in a magnetic field and as such must not be mixed with any other component, be it an oil, grease or solvent. Do not spray a releasing agent or lubricating oil on a reel with this technology.
Magsealed oil is held in place by magnetic force and does not degrade over time, thereby improving the smoothness and lifespan of the reel. After each session, you ideally want to rinse the reel with a gentle hose (without a booster) then dry it with a clean rag having spun the handle to shake off any excess water.

- The ATD boasts discs which have been impregnated with a specialist grease to optimise energy yield. This exceptionally high-quality product gives more grinding power at the start and offers a more stable and progressive drag. The risk of breaking off on the fight is kept to a minimum as the ATD adjusts to every phase of the fight: working faster and more progressively on the first run but offering a firmer hold for cranking power in the middle phase. It’s this adaptive feature that gives it its Automatic name.
- The arched profile and 15% weight reduction compared to standard rotors offers optimal winding smoothness and eliminates vibration thanks to the lowered centre of gravity.
- When pressure is applied to a rotor, standard models weaken at the points indicated in yellow and red while the Air Rotor spreads the load over its entire arched structure.
- Aluminium is the most rigid reel component material. Daiwa’s engineers have specially treated the metal to form an optimal micro-layer of stainless aluminium.
- This is an evolution of the Digigear made with precision tooling of C6191 marine bronze for a gear that’s both light and 1.6x tougher than Dura-aluminium.
- The Monocoque Body now comes in a new, uniquely tooled symmetrical design. This symmetrical construction first appeared on the Certate HD 2016 and now marks a turning point in reel history, ushering a new generation of tougher reels. The drive gear is encased in a one-piece body, tougher and better sealed than ever.
- This technology cross wraps the line around the spool for optimised offloading on the cast. This is absolutely key to preventing tangles and linespin.
- The new Infinite Anti Reverse system is activated with 4 times less force than a classic system. Less than 2g is needed to engage the Real Stopper system which eliminates any handle movement, bringing sensitivity to the next level.
- The perfect tuning of the contact points between helicoid and straight teeth create an energy yield close to 99% and silent rotation. Daiwa gear trains offer superior winding smoothness.
- The hollow Touch Air Bail is made from SUS303 steel and is 20% tougher than a solid titanium bail of the same weight, and with a lifespan 13 x longer.
- The TB2 pickup roller has been developed by Daiwa and precision tooled to guarantee optimal line lay. The system reduces the risks of linespin on the retrieve by 90%.
- In contrast to classic cylindrical spool designs, ABS spools are tapered to limit the risks of tangling on the cast. What’s more, the lip reduces friction to boost casting distance. The new ABSII design has been optimised to let you reach record distances on the cast.
- High quality anticorrosion ball bearings with a lifespan 10 times greater than a standard bearing.
