Vanquish FA Competition Edition - C 2000 SHGA

Ultralight, ultrasensitive, uncompromisingly precise – the Vanquish Competition for finesse at the highest level!

The Shimano Vanquish FA Competition Edition is a high-end spinning reel for finesse and competitive fishing, specially designed for demanding anglers who expect maximum sensitivity, precision, and control. As part of the renowned Magnumlite series, this ultralight reel impresses with a perfect combination of the latest Shimano technologies and high-quality materials – ideal for targeted fishing for perch, trout, and pike-perch.

The heart of the reel is the extremely lightweight magnesium Hagane Body, combined with an innovative CI4+ MGL rotor that enables exceptionally smooth and direct rotation. This allows the reel to respond immediately to every crank movement and offers unparalleled feedback – perfect for precise handling of jigs, microbaits, and UL rigs. Even during long fishing sessions, the handling remains comfortable and fatigue-free.

Maximum performance is ensured by the interplay of HAGANE Gear, MicroModule II, X-Ship, InfinityXross, and InfinityDrive, which guarantee smooth, powerful operation and efficient power transmission. At the same time, the reel offers high durability that also convinces in intensive competition use.
Specifically optimized for fishing with thin PE lines (approx. 0.6–1.0), the line management is at the highest level. Technologies such as InfinityLoop, Long Stroke AR-C Spool, and Anti-Twist Fin improve casting distance and precision and effectively reduce line twist and bird's nests. The finely adjustable Rigid Support Drag brake with Duracross drag discs also ensures consistent and reliable braking performance – even with cautious bites.

In terms of durability and protection, the Vanquish also sets standards. The X-Protect sealing system, high-quality SA-RB ball bearings, and the balanced G Free Body ensure a long service life, optimal protection against water and dirt, as well as perfect balance on the rod blank.
The Shimano Vanquish FA Competition Edition is available in various sizes and gear ratios and is equipped with shallow spools that are ideal for thin braided lines. It is the perfect tool for ambitious spinning anglers who want no compromises in finesse fishing and competition.
