Title: Daiwa Saltiga SALD60HDF
Post by: fishtfight1 on May 04, 2017, 07:14:52 PM
Does anyone know the benefit of this reel over the SALD60H? I see it adds the Dog Fight, but the drag is less than the 60H. It claims a sail fish special drag.

Thanks for your insight in advance. Geoff.

 My brother fishes sailfish tournaments in South Florida. The rules specify the use of 20 lb test line, so high quality, high capacity reels with a smooth relatively low drag are needed.
  For another example compare Penn VS and VSX reels.
