Daiwa Saltist Hyper 26

The Saltist Hyper series receives its first major revamp in many years to present Aussie saltwater anglers with their most advanced and expansive Saltist Hyper range to date. Continuing the tradition of delivering anglers the perfect balance between value and performance the 2026 Saltist Hyper series takes a step forward, leveraging many of Daiwa’s advancements in rod technology to elevate the range to a new level of design and performance. HVF Nanoplus and X45 blank technologies are the foundation of the new range, with the combination resulting in a blank that is light and sensitivity yet able to handle the stresses and loads of saltwater fishing while never compromising performance. Blank performance and strength are further enhanced with the 2-piece models in the range featuring Daiwa’s V-Joint technology. V-Joint features a bias wrap construction within the ferrule to eliminate weakness and flat spots in the joint. The result is a two-piece rod that’s as strong and acts just like a one-piece. The new Saltist Hyper range welcomes Complete Control Grips to the line-up, with its unique ‘angler focused’ grip and hold design enhancing the angler’s grip comfort and control. The foregrip features a uniquely shaped trigger that allows the angler’s finger to rest perfectly on the trigger when locked into a fight With nearly 20 models in the range and a diverse range of tapers designed for a variety of Australian species, techniques, and styles of fishing the 26 Saltist Hyper series is a line-up designed to perform and built to last. Whether its throwing stickbaits for tuna or reef species over shallow coral flats or throwing a timber hardbody off the break walls of the northern rivers for mulloway, there’s a 26 Saltist Hyper for almost every conceivable mission.
