Shimano Vanford FA Spinning Reel 6.4:1 | VFC3000XGA SPECIFICATIONS - Retrieve: Reversible | Gear Ratio: 6.4:1 | LPT (in): 37 | Weight (oz): 6.3 | Line (lb/yds): Mono: 10/140 Braid: 10/200 | Bearings: 7+1 | Max Drag (lbs): 20 | MPN: VFC3000XGA Continuing a legacy of pursuing reduced weight, lower start-up inertia and enhanced sensitivity, the Shimano Vanford FA elevates the MagnumLite lineup of spinning reels with technology passed down from Shimano flagship series. An MGL Rotor highlights the all-new Vanford FA to provide anglers with heightened performance when employing "start-and-stop" finesse bass techniques or when needing quick hook-setting execution. Combined with the lightweight CI4+ body, the Vanford's low start-up inertia enables anglers to maintain complete control using tactics requiring immediate reel action to keep the lure within the strike zone, enabling them to adjust cadence based on fish behavior. Equipped with InfinityXross technology — a refined gear design that enhances winding efficiency and provides supremely smooth retrievals — offers heightened control when finesse fishing, enabling delicate presentations and precise lure manipulation. Shimano engineers incorporated Infinity Drive technology to reduce contact between the spool shaft and pinion gear to enhance smoothness and efficiency during retrieval. Merging the smooth performance of felt with the wear resistance of carbon, DuraCross drag technology increases drag durability tenfold, providing confidence when battling big fish. Setting the standard as the premier spinning reel for finesse anglers, Vanford FA boasts many of Shimano's latest flagship technologies to ensure unparalleled smoothness and performance.

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 boundaries of lightweight technology and engineering, delivering remarkable finesse that you can actually feel and will most certainly appreciate.The inertia required to start the Vanford rotor moving is almost imperceptible. It’s hard to describe the sensation, but pick one up and you will immediately know what we mean. With sensitivity and lightness comes control, and with control comes better fishing and more success. It’s a win-win and when it comes to lightweight lure fishing set-ups, there is very little that can compete with the Vanford. Combine it with any high quality finesse lure rod and you will immediately enhance the balance, enabling you to fish better, for longer and increasing your enjoyment to higher levels than you thought possible.The sensitivity of the Vanford is partly as a result of the second generation Magnumlite Rotor, which along with the body is engineered from Shimano’s exclusive Ci4+ composite material. This is also why the reel feels so light in the hand. Internally, HAGANE Gear, MicroModule II, X-SHIP, InfinityDrive, InfinityXross and Silent Drive work seamlessly together to deliver smoothness and a deceptive amount of power. The Vanford is also fitted with Shimano’s advanced Duracross drag, which provides exceptional, accurate control when playing hard fighting fish. For trouble-free line management Anti-Twist Fin controls the pressure on the line that goes through the line roller onto the spool and is especially benificial when fishing with very lightweight lures.
