SHIMANO Vanquish FB Spinning Reel

VANQUISH, the Shimano benchmark for lightness and responsiveness

The Shimano VANQUISH is the flagship model of the Quick Response series, a range developed to deliver ultra-smooth retrieve, immediate responsiveness and an extremely low weight. Designed for anglers seeking a technical and high-performance reel, it allows you to perfectly feel lure animations and the most subtle bites.

Its modern design combines premium materials and advanced technologies to guarantee a precise, comfortable and efficient fishing experience.

An exceptionally smooth retrieve

The VANQUISH benefits from a particularly refined internal mechanism that ensures a smooth and regular retrieve.

The MicroModule Gear II gears improve operating precision while Silent Drive technology optimises internal adjustments to reduce vibrations and mechanical play. Combined with the X-SHIP system, this assembly ensures efficient power transmission and an extremely smooth retrieve.

The 11 S A-RB bearings further enhance the smoothness of operation and provide excellent corrosion resistance.

A lightweight and responsive design

The Quick Response philosophy is based on reducing rotational inertia in order to achieve a particularly responsive reel.

The Magnumlite (MGL) rotor considerably reduces the effort required to cast and retrieve the line. This design improves the reel's sensitivity and allows precise control of light lure animations.

The VANQUISH also stands out for its extremely low weight, which improves comfort during long fishing sessions.

Robustness and protection

Despite its lightness, the reel benefits from a solid construction based on a HAGANE body designed to provide rigidity and durability.

The HAGANE gears guarantee excellent wear resistance while X-Protect technology shields the internal mechanism against water and impurity ingress. The one-piece titanium bail arm further enhances the reel's reliability.

Optimised casting performance

The VANQUISH is equipped with a Long Cast spool combined with AR-C technology. This configuration promotes smoother line release and enables longer and more precise casts.

This performance is particularly appreciable during technical fishing sessions requiring precision and distance.

An ideal reel for finesse fishing

Thanks to its lightness, sensitivity and responsiveness, the VANQUISH is perfectly suited to light and ultra-light fishing. It is particularly well suited to targeting species such as perch, trout or pike-perch with light lures and fine lines.

Available in several sizes, it easily adapts to a wide range of fishing techniques and configurations.
