Tsunami Evict II Spinning Reel

The Tsunami Evict II Spinning Reel is a compact, powerful saltwater reel designed for anglers who need strength, sealing and smooth performance without stepping into an oversized spinning platform.

Built with a full-metal body and side plate, the Evict II provides the rigidity needed to keep its drivetrain aligned under pressure. An IPX6-rated sealed system with 12 internal seals helps protect critical components from saltwater, spray and grit.

Inside, Tsunami combines S-Drive stainless steel gearing, a sealed CF3 carbon drag system and 9+1 dual-sealed stainless steel ball bearings to create a reel built specifically for demanding inshore and nearshore fishing.

IPX6 Sealed Protection

The Evict II features an IPX6-rated sealed system utilizing 12 internal seals.

For saltwater anglers, that protection matters.

Spray, salt and grit can quickly work their way into an inadequately protected spinning reel. The Evict II's sealing system is designed to help keep those contaminants away from critical internal components during regular saltwater use.

The reel also incorporates a sealed anti-reverse system and sealed bail spring system, extending that protection to other important areas of the reel.

Full-Metal Body & Side Plate

Tsunami builds the Evict II around a full-metal body and side plate.

A rigid reel platform becomes particularly important when fighting powerful fish under significant drag pressure. Reducing flex helps maintain proper gear alignment and allows the drivetrain to transfer power more efficiently.

The result is a compact spinning reel designed to feel solid when placed under load.

Stainless Steel S-Drive Gearing

At the heart of the Evict II is Tsunami's digitally optimized S-Drive stainless steel drive and pinion gear system.

Stainless steel provides the strength and durability needed for demanding saltwater applications, while the optimized gearing is designed to deliver smooth, efficient cranking power.

For anglers targeting hard-fighting inshore species, that's an important combination.

Sealed CF3 Carbon Drag System

The sealed CF3 carbon drag system is designed to provide smooth, consistent pressure throughout the fight.

A quality drag becomes particularly important when targeting fish such as snook, tarpon and jacks that can quickly transition from a hard initial strike to powerful sustained runs.

The sealed design also helps protect the drag system from the saltwater environment surrounding it.

9+1 Dual-Sealed Bearings

The Evict II incorporates 9+1 dual-sealed stainless steel ball bearings for smooth operation while providing additional protection against contaminants.

Tsunami also uses a sealed anti-reverse system, giving the reel a bearing and sealing package designed around repeated saltwater use.

Braid-Ready Spool with Titanium Lip

The braid-ready spool is equipped with a titanium spool lip, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant surface where line repeatedly leaves the spool during casting.

Modern braided line is a natural fit for the Evict II, providing the sensitivity, capacity and strength-to-diameter ratio preferred for many inshore and nearshore applications.

High & Low Gear Options

One of the most interesting features of the Evict II platform is the availability of high- and low-gear configurations.

That allows anglers to select a reel based on how they actually fish.

Higher-speed configurations make sense when quick line pickup is important, while lower gearing can provide an advantage when additional cranking power and controlled retrieves are preferred.

It's a useful distinction that allows the Evict II platform to cover more than one style of saltwater fishing.

Why Choose the Tsunami Evict II?

The combination of compact size, metal construction and saltwater protection is the major advantage.

The Evict II isn't trying to be a fully sealed heavy-duty reel like the SaltX II. Instead, it provides anglers with a powerful inshore and nearshore platform featuring an IPX6 sealed system, full-metal construction and stainless steel drivetrain.

That makes it particularly attractive for anglers who want a strong, rigid spinning reel with meaningful saltwater protection but don't necessarily need the heavier-duty construction and IPX8 sealing of the SaltX II.

The availability of different gear ratios further allows anglers to choose the Evict II that best matches their specific fishing style.

Premier Tackle Take

The Tsunami Evict II is a very good fit for Florida inshore and nearshore fishing.

For our area, we see the Evict II making a lot of sense for anglers targeting snook, redfish, jacks and tarpon, where a compact spinning reel can still be asked to handle substantial drag pressure and powerful runs.

What we particularly like is the combination of a full-metal platform, 12-seal IPX6 protection, stainless S-Drive gearing and sealed carbon drag. It gives anglers meaningful saltwater durability without automatically moving them into a larger or more expensive heavy-duty spinning reel.

For someone looking for a strong everyday saltwater spinning reel that can handle serious inshore fishing, the Evict II deserves a close look.
