Shimano 26 Vanquish CE 1000SSSPG

The Shimano 26 Vanquish CE is a limited-edition spinning reel engineered for tournament anglers who demand the ultimate in retrieve sensitivity. As the flagship of the Magnum Light series, it strips away some waterproofing to drastically reduce rotational torque, delivering an incredibly light, direct feel and heightened responsiveness. This model is optimized for slow, deliberate presentations with ultra-lightweight lures, making the reel virtually disappear in your hand.

• 4.4:1 gear ratio with 55cm retrieve per crank, ideal for dead-slow techniques
