Shimano Vanquish FC Reel

Shimano Vanquish FC is the reel you should have if you value LOW weight on your reel (from only 145 grams! depending on size), perfectly suited for the lighter fishing for pikeperch, perch and trout. However, if you go up to the larger sizes, it is also excellent for the slightly heavier fishing. World class simply and packed with Shimano technology from the top model STELLA.

The minimal weight of the Vanquish comes from extensive use of Shimano's exclusive Ci4 composite material. This is enhanced by the addition of the Magnumlite Rotor, which also contributes to the incredibly low "start inertia" when weaving in. This inertia is especially important when fishing finesse and UL techniques. You will be able to fish these techniques more accurately than ever. A roller with great precision!

Another advantage is InfinityDrive. This technology provides powerful yet effortless rotation, especially under heavier loads. In extreme situations, you can still maintain a constant and even crank pressure, which is very helpful when hooking the big fish.

By adding the InfinityLoop, the casting distance is greatly improved. This helps you reach the point of interest far out, even with a light setup. Other advanced technologies, such as InfinityXross, X-Protect and Anti-Twist Fin further contribute to this reel's remarkable technical performance.

If you do not want to make any sacrifices in quality and performance but at the same time have a very light fishing equipment, this is the reel you are looking for.
