VANFORD Spinning Reel
Sculpted from over a decade of engineering advancement and a rich lineage of predecessors, the new Vanford tests the boundaries of technology and engineering found in spinning reels. Built upon a CI4+ body for both a lightweight feel and carbon rigidity, the Vanford incorporates a MagnumLite (MGL) Rotor for up to 48% less rotational inertia than traditional rotor construction for a quick response in critical situations.
The Vanford features Shimano’s cold-forged HAGANE Gear and many of Shimano’s premium technologies for increased fishing performance and years of durability. Vanford’s SilentDrive and MicroModule Gear II technologies combine to produce a new level of smooth rotational performance while reducing overall reel vibration.
Vanford also incorporates Long Stroke Spool technology for improved line capacity and smoother casting.

The Vanford reel feels light and responsive. The casting is smooth and the drag system works well. I’ve used it in both lakes and rivers and it holds up well under pressure.
Lisa Murray –
Great balance between weight and performance. The rotor response is noticeably faster than my previous reel. The spool capacity is sufficient for larger fish.
Ella Bailey –
Solid build quality and smooth operation. The vibration is minimal, which helps during long sessions. A bit expensive, but worth it for the performance.
Eric Young –
I’ve been using this reel for several months now. It’s durable, reliable, and performs consistently in different conditions. The silent operation is a big plus.
