Ryobi Verum II Feeder Spinning Reel 6500 5.0:1 570g 14kg 5+1

RYOBI Verum II Feeder 6500 – Long-Distance Power for Heavy Feeder Fishing

The Verum II Feeder 6500 is RYOBI's heaviest-duty feeder reel, engineered for casting large feeders to maximum range and hauling them back quickly — even when the fish puts up a fight.

Built to Handle Heavy Loads at Distance

The ALU-LITE body resists flex under pressure, keeping the reel's action smooth during powerful casts and sustained fights. A stainless steel spool axle with Spool Supporter adds structural integrity, while the water- and dust-sealed carbon drag delivers consistent, reliable braking with 14 kg of stopping power. The anti-twist rotor made from NCRT carbon keeps the reel running true under repeated strain.

Fast Line Recovery and Precision Line Lay

With a 5.0:1 gear ratio and a generous 80 cm of line retrieved per handle turn, the Verum II 6500 pulls in line quickly after long casts — essential when fishing at range with heavy feeders. The CNC-machined aluminium spool design ensures precise lay of even fine braided lines, reducing tangles and improving casting consistency. The reel ships with two spools: a shallow feeder spool (0.30 mm / 150 m) and a deep spool (0.30 mm / 250 m), giving you flexibility to match the setup to the day's conditions.
