Yes. The reel features a fully sealed body with bronze-reinforced stainless steel components, making it ideal for saltwater use. The sealed construction keeps water out of the gearwork even after extended submersion.
A 1:5.0 ratio means one turn of the handle retrieves line across 5 spool rotations—a medium-speed standard for balanced casting and retrieval control. It suits most saltwater and catfish techniques without excessive cranking effort.
The Safari 8500 features a 12 kg drag, which handles saltwater species and powerful freshwater targets like catfish up to substantial sizes. Always adjust drag before fishing and test it on smaller fish first.
Yes, the fully sealed, stainless steel design makes it suitable for both saltwater and freshwater angling, including catfish fishing. After saltwater use, rinse with fresh water and dry thoroughly to extend the reel's life.

The RYOBI Safari spinning reel is engineered for serious saltwater fishing and big freshwater targets like catfish (Waller). Built with a fully sealed body that resists corrosion and handles extended submersion, this reel delivers both durability and smooth performance in demanding environments.
The reel's fully sealed housing with bronze-reinforced stainless steel components keeps saltwater and fresh water out of critical gearwork. At 1 metre depth for up to one hour, the reel remains watertight—perfect for boat fishing or wading in rough conditions.
With a 12 kg drag, the reel subdues powerful fish and lends confidence on longer runs. The large, ergonomic handle knob transmits control and feedback directly to your hand, while the 1:5.0 gear ratio balances cranking speed with line lift on every turn.
Six ball bearings plus one anti-reverse bearing create a smooth, responsive retrieve. The stainless steel axle and sealed drag system shrug off salt spray and rough handling—no constant maintenance required to stay reliable.
