Shimano Vanford Spinning Reel
Check out the latest, redesigned Shimano Vanford A Spinning Reel!
The Shimano Vanford is built with years of innovative technology cumulated from its rich history of predecessors. The new Vanford is packed with features to provide performance only seen from the technology and advancements that Shimano offers. Built on a CI4+ body that provides its lightweight feel and carbon rigidity. The MagnumLite (MGL) Rotor makes retrieving faster and smoother allowing for quicker bite detection. MicroModule II gearing and Silent Drive reduce vibration for each rotation to ensure that you'll feel as much as possible. HAGANE cold-forged Gear offers unmatched durability no matter what fish you want to get tangled up with. There isn't an inshore scenario that the Shimano Vanford can't handle whether it's drop-shotting for big smallmouth out deep, a shakey head around brush piles for spots, or skipping a wacky rig under docks for big largemouth!
