Daiwa Saltist Levelwind Star Drag Reels

Great reel for bottom fishing!

This reel is great. It looks good and is super smooth. The gear ratio and high inches per handle turn are nice for deep California rockfishing to 600'. Just put the rod on the rail and wind them up! I got the 40 size and it is not too large or heavy and it holds a ton of braid. The handle gave me a blister after winding up from 600' multiple times. I will be getting the Gomexus replacement with the T bar handle. Thanks Mark and Sergey!
