Shimano Vanford A

WARNING: Prop 65 Cancer and Reproductive Harm Continuing a legacy of pursuing reduced weight, lower start-up inertia and enhanced sensitivity, the Shimano Vanford A elevates the MagnumLite lineup of spinning reels with technology passed down from Shimano flagship series. An MGL Rotor highlights the all-new Vanford A 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 A boasts many of Shimano’s latest flagship technologies to ensure unparalleled smoothness and performance.   SPECIFICATIONS PRODUCT CODE WEIGHT POWERPRO LINE CAPACITY LINE RETRIEVE PER CRANK GEAR RATIO BEARINGS MONO LINE CAPACITY MAX DRAG VF2500HGFA 6.2 10-150, 15-145, 30-100 86 5.8 7/1 8-140, 10-120 20 VF4000XGFA 7.6 15-230, 30-180, 50-120 101 6.2 7/1 10-200, 12-160 24 VF500FA 4.9 5-135, 8-105, 10-65 69 5.6 6/1 2-190, 4-100, 6-60 6 VFC3000XGFA 6.3 10-200, 20-140, 40-105 94 6.4 7/1 6-230, 8-170, 10-140 20 VFC5000XGFA 7.9 20-260, 30-235, 40-185 101 6.2 7/1 12-195, 14-165 24 VFC2000HGFA 5.5 10-140, 15-115, 20-95 81 6 7/1 6-165, 8-105, 10-95 7 VF500A 4.9 5-135, 8-105, 10-65 69 5.6 6/1 2-190, 4-100, 6-60 6 VF2500HGA 6.2 10-150, 15-145, 30-100 86 5.8 7/1 8-140, 10-120 20 VFC2000HGA 5.5 10-140, 15-115, 20-95 81 6 7/1 6-165, 8-105, 10-95 7 VFC3000XGA 6.3 10-200, 20-140, 40-105 94 6.4 7/1 6-230, 8-170, 10-140 20 VF4000XGA 7.6 15-230, 30-180, 50-120 101 6.2 7/1 10-200, 12-160 24 VFC5000XGA 7.9 20-260, 30-235, 40-185 101 6.2 7/1 12-195, 14-165 24
