The Shimano Vanford you know and love is now here to provide anglers with enhanced performance utilizing Shimano's latest technology. Offering lightweight construction, enhanced sensitivity, low start-up inertia, and overall powerful performance, the Shimano Vanford A raises the bar. Elevating Shimano's MagnumLite lineup, the Vanford A features an MGL Rotor to provide precision control, allowing for low start-up inertia, which improves your ability to control baits in the strike zone. The Vanford is built with a lightweight CI4+ body that houses the InfinityXross technology, a refined gear system that improves retrieval smoothness and efficiency.
