DAIWA 21 SALTIST MQ

Combining cutting-edge technology with rugged durability, the Daiwa Saltist MQ is built to thrive in Australia’s harsh saltwater environments. At its core is Daiwa’s famous Magseal system, delivering unmatched protection from salt, sand, and water intrusion. Paired with a single-piece Monocoque (MQ) body, the Saltist MQ eliminates traditional side plates in favour of a screw-in engine plate, increasing overall strength and water resistance while housing a larger Tough Digigear drive for superior cranking power and efficiency.

The hollow tubular Air Bail ensures flawless line management, guiding even the lightest braid smoothly onto the spool—especially useful when casting in windy conditions. A lightweight yet rigid Air Rotor further enhances sensitivity and balance, dispersing stress to reduce flex under load. The inclusion of an ABS Longcast spool boosts casting distance by up to 5%, helping you reach distant fish with ease.

Now available in sizes from 2500 through to 20000, the Saltist MQ covers everything from light inshore estuary work to heavy offshore battles with reef species and pelagics. All models come equipped with a robust aluminium round knob for a secure, comfortable grip during long fights.

If you're after a saltwater spinning reel that delivers power, precision, and lasting protection, the Saltist MQ is ready to meet the challenge.
