<p>The new Shimano Vanford FA reel is perfect for a wide range of medium to light fishing techniques, the Vanford IS part of the Magnumlite series and pushes the boundaries of Shimano technology and engineering, offering impeccable precision that you can actually feel and certainly appreciate. The inertia required to set the Vanford rotor in motion is almost imperceptible. It's hard to describe the sensation, but take one and you'll quickly understand what we mean. With sensitivity and lightness comes control, and with control comes better fishing feel. It's a win-win, and when it comes to light fishing, there's very little that can compete with the new Shimano Vanford FA. By combining it with any high-quality spinning rod, you will immediately improve balance, allowing you to fish better, for longer and increasing your enjoyment to greater levels than you can imagine. The sensitivity of the Shimano Vanford FA is the result of the MGL rotor, which together with the body is designed with 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 and Silent Drive work together seamlessly to provide smoothness and an impressive amount of power. The new Vanford FA also features Shimano's advanced Duracross drag system, which provides exceptional, precise control when retrieving hard-fighting fish. For trouble-free line management, the Anti-Twist Fin controls the pressure on the line as it passes through the line roller to the spool and is particularly useful when fishing with very light bait.</p>

An added benefit you can feel is the precision of the light rotation, which is the result of the CI4 + rotor construction and HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Silent Drive technology. Other features include the best cold forged AR-C aluminum spools (including a spare spool) with a capacity reducer to load just the right amount of wire. The larger 5000 model has an additional reducer for use with the braid when fishing long distance feeder. Screw handle and a metal clip, which is very resistant, reinforce the pedigree of the XR.
