The SALTIGA LC ‘Light Casting’ series is a new flagship line from Daiwa Australia, offering groundbreaking actions and packed with the latest technology. These rods are a new addition to the SALTIGA family, designed and developed specifically for Australia based on feedback from passionate inshore and offshore anglers from Sydney to far-northern Queensland.
The key to the SALTIGA LC range is its model lineup, featuring two shorter 7’0” rods for deep-water plastics, three 7’5” rods for casting plastics targeting iconic species like Snapper, and two ‘Plug Special’ models designed for casting smaller stickbaits like the SALTIGA OVER THERE for pelagic species like Tuna, Mackerel, and Salmon.
The detailed design and development process, along with extensive field testing across multiple environments, ensure that the SALTIGA LC rods are among the best in their category.

Technology & Features:
- SVF COMPILE-X NANO PLUS - An incredibly high-modulus carbon sheet with nano-technology resin which offers unmatched sensitivity and power-to-weight ratio. Allowing for blanks which are both incredibly lightweight, and ultra-crisp and responsive.
- X45F - X45X Full Shield Technology is 25% more efficient than standard X45 technology. With increased torsional stiffness, blanks armed with X45X resist blank twist during casting & jigging. This characteristic prevents the blank from losing stored energy during the cast, ensuring that every bit of force you put into your cast, is transferred through the blank and ultimately to your chosen lure.
- AIR GUIDE SYSTEM - Weighing a mere fraction of the weight of traditional guides (40% lighter than an equivalent sized titanium guide) AGS guides feature a solid carbon fibre frame construction that minimizes weight, improves casting distance and performance, and delivers faster rod speed, reduced rod vibration and angler fatigue, and greater rod sensitivity.
- V-JOINT ALPHA - Lighter and stronger than its predessor, V-Joint Alpha features Bias construction that allows the rod joint to flex with the rod to eliminate flat spots and weakness in the ferrule joint.
- AIR SENSOR REEL SEAT - Weighing a mere fraction of the weight of traditional guides (40% lighter than an equivalent sized titanium guide) AGS guides feature a solid carbon fibre frame construction that minimizes weight, improves casting distance and performance, and delivers faster rod speed, reduced rod vibration and angler fatigue, and greater rod sensitivity.
