Introducing the New Okuma Safyre Spinning Reels – Versatility Meets Precision

For anglers who demand more from their gear, the new Okuma Safyre Spinning Reels are built to deliver exceptional performance in any setting.  From freshwater lakes and rivers to light inshore and nearshore saltwater battles, the Safyre will have you covered. The Safyre was engineered for anglers who want one reel that can adapt to a wide range of techniques and species without sacrificing strength, smoothness, or durability.

Versatility Across the Board

Available in a range of sizes, the Safyre lineup covers the spectrum of fishing applications:

  • Smaller sizes (1000–2500) – Perfect for freshwater species like bass, trout, and panfish, as well as light tackle finesse techniques such as drop-shotting or Ned rig fishing.

  • Mid sizes (3000–4000) – Ideal for larger freshwater fish and crossover applications like redfish, speckled trout, and snook in light inshore environments.

  • Larger sizes (C5000) – Designed for anglers chasing bigger freshwater fish like catfish as well as nearshore species like snook and redfish.

Whether you’re flipping a jig for bass in the morning or tossing soft plastics to redfish in the flats that afternoon, the Safyre is built to make that transition seamlessly.

Technology that Gives You the Edge

The Safyre Spinning Reels are packed with features that hardcore anglers will appreciate:

  • Precision-Cut Gearing for unmatched smoothness and cranking power.

  • Multi-Disc Carbon Drag System delivering the stopping force needed for hard-charging fish.

  • CFR (Cyclonic Flow Rotor) Technology to keep the reel dry and corrosion-free in challenging conditions.

  • Lightweight, Rigid Frame Construction that maintains power without adding unnecessary bulk.

  • Hydro-Block Body to keep water intrusion to drag and pinion gear minimal

Every turn of the handle feels solid, every cast controlled, and every hookset confident — giving you the edge you need when competing against other anglers or simply trying to outwit a trophy fish.

Built for Anglers Who Push the Limits

Okuma designed the Safyre Spinning Reels for serious fishermen who fish hard, chase multiple species, and don’t want to compromise on performance. If you’re the type who wants your gear to match your drive and ambition on the water, the Safyre is your reel.
