The Penn Slammer IV and Daiwa Saltist Coastal Medium Kingfish and Snapper Combo is the perfect midrange combo for boat and landbased fishing. This versatile combo is suitable for all types of fishing for fish such as Kingfish, Snapper, and Jewfish. Whether throwing large soft plastics, hard body lures or doing some light bait fishing, this combo can do it all. The Penn Slammer IV 4500 is a very strong and tough little reel, equipped with 13.6kg of drag. The Daiwa Saltist Coastal 70H is a 7ft 7-12kg rated rod which can comfortably be used off the boat or off harbour wharves and walls. It has a bit of a fast taper action in the tip perfect for casting and working lures, and heaps of power down low for fighting big fish. The reel comes spooled with Daiwa J Braid x8 Multi 30lb 300m which is a super-strong, smooth, and abrasion-resistant line which is ideal when fishing for kingfish and snapper around heavy structure.
Designed for anglers who target the hardest fighting sportfish, PENNâs new Slammer IV spinning range takes the ultimate workhorse reel to another level.
Building off a proven platform of an IPX6 sealed body and spool from the Slammer III range, PENN has redesigned the Dura-Drag system in the
Slammer IV to not only be better sealed, but also offer a wider range of usable drag, all while being bearing supported for extra smoothness.
Whether youâre live baiting in the surf, spinning from the rocks, popper fishing a coral reef, deepwater jigging or switchbaiting a billfish, the Slammer IV range wonât let you down. Let the battle begin.

Saltist has been synonymous with the Daiwa saltwater range for over a decade, designed and built to handle the punishment from the coastal environment. Inshore lure fishing with soft plastics and hard bodies with smaller reels and braids has evolved that the need for a specialist range of light tackle rods is required, with that in mind we introduce the Saltist Coastal rod series.
From the beginning, a rod needs a solid base and HVF carbon is where it begins. HVF is Daiwaâs answer, the low resin, high strength and density carbon creates a blank that is stripped of unwanted weight to make it incredibly light, sensitive and responsive. More muscle and less fat is the name of the game with HVF and the new Saltist Coastal series. The Coastalâs slim and powerful design is further enhanced with the latest X45 and 3DX technologies, eliminating blank distortion and twist to fully unleash the maximum power and performance of the blank.
One of Daiwaâs newest blank technologies, 3DX, adds another level of refinement to Coastal's already impressive blank performance and design. This is an innovation in lower blank strength and support, 3DX supports the lower power section of the rod and features a densely packed three direction carbon fibre weave that distributes power evenly in all directions, thus allowing the blank to maintain its form when under load. 3DX increases the power and eliminates blank twist and collapse, and allows the rodâs power to be located at the lower section of the rod for more power and less angler fatigue.
Working seamlessly together is X45, this further eliminates blank twist and distortion to the whole rod, increasing rod strength, function, and sensitivity. By eliminating twist and preventing the blank from losing its round form, X45 and 3DX allows a lighter a small diameter blank to be made, and lighter more dynamic rod to be created.
By combing the latest in Daiwa blank technology with a well-designed range of models the Saltist Coastal opens up a whole new world for the inshore saltwater lure angler.
