This is a premium slow jig combo, ideal for targeting a variety of species including Kingfish, Snapper, Coral Trout, Emperor, Amberjack, Dhufish and Mulloway. Shimanos Torium is a reliable reel, built on an aluminium cast body and boasting 7kgs of smooth usable drag the Torium punches above its weight and its longevity even when used in saltwater will suprise you. Shimanos Saltist Hyper Slow Jig has a comfortable split butt which easily fits under the arm meaning you can use the combo all day. This combo is spooled with Daiwa J-Braid x4, it is important to use lighter braid on these combos, not only because it means that you fit more line on the spool. But also thinner braid has less resistence agisnt the water whilst the jig is dropping, therfore your lure will reach the bottom faster.
This Combo Includes:
- Saltist Hyper V2 Slow Jig 6ft2 PE5
- Shimano Torium 16 HG
- Daiwa J-Braid x4 500m Multi-Colour 40lbs
With the rise in popularity of the specialist slow jigging market, Daiwa has expanded its offering with the introduction of the brand-new Saltist Hyper range of specialist slow jig rods.
Saltist Hyper SJ expands on the ever-popular range of Saltist Hyper rods which were upgraded in 2020 and gives the offshore angler even more choice in one of the best bang-for-buck rod ranges available.
Combining Daiwaâs HVF graphite with newly released X45X Full Shield technology, the action and responsiveness of these rods has to be seen to be believed for the price. X45X Full Shield graphite increases torsional stiffness, which reduces blank twist under load. Something that is important in a jigging rod where the up and down motion of working a jig can mean a lot of lost potential energy through twisting of the rod blank. By reducing this twisting force, the rod recovers much faster meaning the action of your jig will be improved.
Outfitted with Fuji stainless steel âOâ ring guides and Fuji reel seats, the new Saltist Hyper SJ exudes quality & refinement.
Made at the preferred 6â2â length for the optimum action, Saltist Hyper SJ is available in both overhead and spin configurations in PE 2, 3 & 4 variations.
X45X FULL SHIELD
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.
FUJI REEL SEAT
Light, strong and true to the famous brandâs reputation for quality and class, Fuji reel seats deliver on performance and value.
FUJI STAINLEES STEEL GUIDES
Light, strong, and highly corrosion resistant, Fuji stainless steel guides are tailor-made for Australia's harsh conditions.
HVF
HVF (High Volume Fibre) combines precise resin control with unidirectional graphite fibre to produce a blank with maximum graphite density, making it incredibly sensitive, light and responsive.

The Shimano Torium overhead series is back â and theyâre better than ever. The three all-new reels in the 2015 lineup â the 16HGA, the 20HGA and the 30HGA â come equipped with Shimanoâs legendary Cross Carbon star drag system, which has been designed to provide 10 kilos of brute-stopping power. This is just what you need when fishing braided line like Power Pro, and line capacities are excellent for their respective sizes. With a high gear ratio of 6.2:1 and a staggering 117cm of line recovered with every crank of the handle, those high speed metals and jigs are simply going to fly through the water. Hopefully their target species can keep up! At a tad over 500 grams in weight, the three reels feature a compact design with a low-slung gear housing, so theyâre sufficiently light and ergonomically efficient for long casting sessions without fatigue. Additionally, three SA-RB bearings and one roller bearing make every cast accurate and as smooth as silk. Finally, given their rugged work environment, the inclusion of EI surface treatment on the aluminium frame and spool will ensure these Toriums continue to look the goods and perform for years to come.
