I've got the OG Vanford in c3000 & 4000 size. Love em both. I use the 4k for flounder fishing & the 3k for speckled trout on a GLF rod. They started my love affair with Shimano. Now i have several Stradics, a Nasci, Spheros...and they're all great.

Fuego’s are ok for a little while. But what you really want in comparison to the stradics/vanford is the Ballistic. I prefer the ballistic because of the still easy retrieve. Shimanos retrieves have gotten too tight.

New Vanford should be a nice reel. The 2000 size has larger diameter spool than 1000 size. 43mm v 40mm. In regards to the duracross drag washer it is not carbon-felt hybrid, it is felt that has been constructed in such a way that the fibres are knitted together to give more durability, in theory the washer should not come apart as easily as the traditional felt.

@JP, did they fix the tightness of the retrieves yet? I haven’t liked any reels since the last black and red ci4+, because of that easy retrieve they had. It seems like since they’ve went to the different gearing it’s made the retrieves way too tight and burns up your wrist and forearm when making a lot of casts and retrieves. I’ve had to switch to Daiwa ballistic because they still have the easy retrieves. But I’d like to start getting some Shimanos again if they ever fix that issue.

It's kind of crazy that most companies can't figure out how to make a good spinning reel and Shimano has basically figured out how to make 2 different lines of spinning reels and they're all freakin awesome for the price...

Hey JP! I am planning to upgrade to this reel from my Ultegra FC, however I still couldn't decide between this new Vanford and Stradic FM. What are your thoughts? - btw, are you planning to do a comparison between those two? Thanks a lot in advance, great videos!
@JPDeRoseOutdoors23 күн бұрын
Definitely planing a comparison video! should be done by next week but in a nutshell the two reels are twins internally and spec wise with the exception of overall weight, frame material and rotor material. If you want a lighter reel with faster start up and stop then go Vandford, if you are fishing a lot of braid to fluoro, not so finesse techniques, Stradic will be a great choice. For some, the looks of the Vanford is the deciding factor but spec'd out, they are twins

@@JPDeRoseOutdoors thanks for the quick response. I am from Hungary, in our rivers there are asps, pikes and perch, I would use the reel for these kind of fish, (catfish is a different level and technique) - so honestly the Ultegra does a great job but I have decided to do an upgrade. First I was thinking on Sustain, but this new Vanford/Stradic line made me excited. Anyway, I think both reels would be a great upgrade from an Ultegra.

Hi. Kind of struggleling to chose which reel would fit for me. I want to use a spinning reel for freshwater offshore jigging with jigheads from 0.2/0.7 oz (10/21 gram) In your video you state that you would rather use the stradic fm for this kind of work, correct?
@JPDeRoseOutdoorsАй бұрын
If fishing straight Fluoro the Vanford would get the nod. For PowerPro to Fluoro leader situations I prefer the Stradic. It’s just over an ounce and a half weight difference so really not that big of a deal and their internals and tech are identical so for a more robust offering Stradic wins

@@Slickdragonslayer71 The stradic or the vanford? I would not for the vanford unless you're fishing deep water and plan on tiring it out. I would not use a vanford in thick cover trying to haul fish out, cuz thats how you break stuff. I've used my stradic fl since the day of release on king salmon and never had an issue. One thing I've notice with people (this may not be you) but they get confused with the vanford vs stradic. A lot of people tend to use either reels for the wrong application at times which was either stradic for finesse or vanford for power fishing just because of the reel looks.
