Shimano Vanford F

Crafted through years of engineering advancements and inspired by its esteemed predecessors, the all-new Vanford reel pushes the boundaries of technology and engineering in spinning reels. Its foundation lies in the lightweight and rigid CI4+ body, while introducing the revolutionary MagnumLite (MGL) Rotor that reduces rotational inertia by up to 48% compared to traditional rotors, delivering lightning-fast responsiveness in critical moments. With the inclusion of Shimano’s renowned HAGANE Gear, the Vanford guarantees exceptional fishing performance and long-lasting durability.

The Vanford reel incorporates cutting-edge features such as SilentDrive and MicroModule Gear II technologies, providing an unprecedented level of smooth rotational performance and significantly reducing reel vibration. Additionally, the Vanford utilizes Long Stroke Spool technology, which not only enhances casting distance but also ensures a seamless line lay during retrieval, resulting in optimal efficiency. To withstand the challenges of inshore environments, the Vanford is equipped with X-Protect technology and water-channeling construction, bolstering its water resistance and overall durability.

From pursuing ice fishing adventures to engaging in drop-shot fishing for smallmouth bass in freshwater, or even embarking on thrilling pursuits of tailing fish in the flats, the Vanford reel stands unrivaled. This legendary masterpiece is born, ready to elevate your angling experience to new heights.
