Behold, a new standard in freshwater to inshore spinning reel offerings, the Kage MQ LT. The word Kage is derived from the Japanese for "In The Shadows."
The Kage MQ LT is available in five sizes from a 1000 model for panfish and smaller freshwater fish to the KGTMQ4000D-CXH which fits the bill nicely for inshore applications and larger freshwater fish. The Kage MQ LT is rich in its feature set.
First, the reel series features a one-piece MONOCOQUE Zaion body that allows more space in the reel body for larger gears that allow more torque and power from the get-go at the same gear ratios of competitive reels.
The Kage family of reels is also Magsealed, features an Air Rotor and Air Bail, A7075 aircraft grade aluminum Digigear technology, Advanced Tournament Drag (ATD), Kage logoed premium cork handle knobs, and a machined aluminum screw-in handle.
The Saltist you have come to know and love has been redesigned and upgraded. Still featuring a heavy duty aluminum frame for maximum durability, we have now added our Monocoque Body (MQ) for even more power and a more compact frame. An MQ frame design allows us to fit a larger gear inside of the reel, adding power and longevity to your gear set. A 360 degree screw-in sideplate removes to need for traditional sideplate screws, allowing for a more compact and more weather resistant housing. Utilizing a Zaion AIR ROTOR, the rotation is effortless allowing you to cast and retrieve all day with ease. Complete with a Magsealed main shaft to maximize protection from the elements, you will be ready to take on the even the toughest of battles.
Available in a wide range of sizes from a compact 2500 perfect for inshore fishing, up to a heavy duty 20000 to take on the toughest offshore predators. The Saltist MQ is truly a prime example of what a spinning reel should be capable of.
FEATURES

- AIR BAIL
- AIR ROTOR
- TOUGH DIGIGEAR
The first Emeraldas reel to feature Monocoque (MQ) body design, the brand-new Emeraldas Air packs one hell of a punch. The ZAION MQ body is not only incredibly lightweight but also astonishingly sturdy. Daiwa’s ZAION carbon material is supremely stiff, combine this with the single piece MQ body and you have a reel body with zero flex.
The other big benefit of MQ technology is the ability to house a much larger drive gear, in this instance a forged and machine-cut aluminium Tough Digigear which provides smooth and powerful reeling throughout the life of the reel.
Sporting the accustomed cosmetics of any reel in the EMERALDAS family, the new AIR model not only looks the part but is outfitted with all the necessary elements to excel at any finesse-orientated fishing whether that be squid, bream, bass, or even trout in the freshwater.
Featuring all the technologies you’d come to expect from a flagship Daiwa spinning reel, the new Emeraldas Air will surely be a hit this season.
