The Shimano Vanford reel is the absolute novelty of 2020, which has every chance of becoming the best in its class. It is equipped with a number of technological upgrades that distinguish it from others. The manufacturer managed to create a lightweight reel with a powerful mechanism that can cope with a large trophy. The reel body, matt black, is made of innovative Ci4 + material, which, with its low weight, has a high margin of rigidity and strength. Thanks to this, all parts of the mechanism are securely held in their seats, maintaining smooth operation for a long time, which is also facilitated by 7 Shimano A-RB ball bearings (6 bearings in the VF500F model). The Magnumlite rotor has minimal inertia and provides a quick start of the reel. The X-Ship internal mechanism, in combination with the Micromodule Gear II and Silent Drive systems, ensures smooth rotation and uniform line laying, regardless of the applied load. The Shimano Vanford spool is made using AR-C technology, where the front V-shaped side allows the line to fly freely. Its elongated shape allows the line to be evenly distributed over a larger area, which affects the casting distance of the bait. To protect against the ingress of water and dirt, the reel is equipped with the X-Protect system, which provides high water resistance without compromising the easy rotation of the mechanism.

The Shimano Vanford reel is ideal for all types of spin fishing, especially in cases where the weight of the tackle plays an important role for the angler.
