the vanford is one of shimano's most sensitive spinning reels. perfect for a wide range of finesse fishing styles, the vanford is part of the magnumlite series and pushes the limits of technology and engineering, offering remarkable finesse that you can actually feel and will certainly appreciate.

the inertia required to set the vanford rotor in motion is almost imperceptible. it's hard to describe the feeling, but try it and you'll immediately understand what we mean. sensitivity and lightness provide better control and with control comes more effective fishing and therefore more success. everyone benefits and when it comes to light combos for lure fishing, there are very few models that can compete with the vanford. combine it with any good quality light lure rod and you'll get a well-balanced setup, allowing you to fish better, longer and increase your enjoyment to levels you didn't expect.

the vanford's sensitivity is achieved thanks to the mgl rotor, which, like the body, is made from shimano's exclusive ci4+ composite material. that's also why the reel feels so light in the hand. internally, the technologies hagane gear, micromodule ii, x-ship, infinitydrive, infinityxross and silent drive work together harmoniously to deliver exceptional smoothness and high durability. the vanford is also equipped with shimano's duracross drag, which provides precise control to secure the capture of very hard-fighting fish. the anti-torsion fin (anti-twist fin) controls the pressure applied to the line as it passes over the roller. it is particularly useful when fishing with very light lures.

how to choose your vanford reel

each indication in the reference (example vfc3000xga) will help you choose the right reel for you, knowing that vf indicates the model, here vanford.

the 4 (or 3)-digit number indicates the size: 500 for stream trout, 2000 for vertical or trout fishing, 2500 as the standard size for freshwater lure fishing, 3000 and 4000 for pike or bass, 5000 for saltwater lure fishing.

c = compact, the spool is a normal spool of the indicated size, but the body is compact; for example a c2500 will have a 2000 body, it is effectively an intermediate size between a 2000 and a 2500.

s / m = shallow or match, a spool with reduced capacity to avoid adding backing before your braid; a match will have more capacity than a shallow.

hg and xg = indicate the gear ratio, you retrieve more line per turn of the handle with an hg, and even more with an xg. a high ratio is ideal for fishing techniques that leave slack in the line during the action (upstream casts / jerks) but on the other hand they are less comfortable with lures that resist retrieval (spinner, crank etc.). if the reel reference does not include hg or xg it has a standard non-multiplying ratio, recommended for spinner for example.

dh = double handle.

a = reel generation: here for the vanford the "a" is the generation after the original vanford, which had no letter.
