- Spent more money on a higher end combination spinning rod and reel for panfish. Here is the top shelf panfish rod and reel combo - Shimano Vanford 1000 paired up with a 6' St. Croix Premier Light action (fast) rod.
Great reel have two 2500/2500HG but combine them with Zodias 5-12g/7-21g. Vanford, Best Bang for the Buck and high quality so I’ll get the new enhanced version arriving in stores this autumn. (Great intro 🤘)
I like your table, organized chaos is great.
I have the same rod and reel set up but in a different size and different length and power. I have the 500 size Vanford and 5ft UL Mod action Premier rod from St Croix for pan fishing. The reel itself is micro compared to my 2500HG Vanford I use for bass fishing. I mean, micro. Though I’ve had a blast with the Premier I just ordered a 6’9 UL fast action Avid series panfish rod. I wasn’t getting the distance I wanted with the Premier and wasn’t available in a fast action. The Avid goes for $200 (which is steep) but nonetheless willing to try a higher end rod with a crisp hook set and more sensitive feel when I get even the smallest bite. Anyhow, You won’t regret your setup and hope you catch many fish!
It's been treating me well so far. I love the lightness of the Vanford. It's smooth 😎
Love the shirt! Death metal and fishing, my kind of channel! Nice combo.
@Jeremy Weller thank you, glad you like it
Awesome set up for fishing and beer, great video🎣
I have a GCX lite with a Vanford 1000 and it’s a great combo. I have 4lbs test on it and it’s a lot of fun with smallmouth and panfish.
Super light, extraordinary drag... perfect
Great video man!! Love the Vanford I have. So smooth and crazy light. Have you seen the Vanford 50? Yes, 5-0. It’s tiny! 😂
This 1000 is tiny enough lol.
How do you like the rod so far? I’ve been using the same one as my all-around, all-species rod. Paired with a Daiwa Fuego LT and 6lb. Sufix Seige, it’ll catch bass, panfish, and river fish like catfish or sheephead and everything feels like a monster.
Fuego LT 1000 size, to be exact.
Awesome choice on your set up. I really like it. I like the Premiere over the Panfish series rods. I'm not much of a fan of the guides on the panfish rods from St. Croix.
I agree on the guides, I have a strong preference for the aluminum oxide or silicon carbide guides, they’re corrosion proof and extremely smooth, so the line won’t get damaged.
Personally I don’t trust the all-steel ones, though I do like the Panfish/Trout series Rod I have besides that guide issue.
Where is a good spot for Snakehead
Almost all upper reaches of the Chesapeake tributaries are a good place to try.
Vanford is the same like ci4. But is better quality
So far, I feel it's a bit over priced for the amount of plastic. I do love the lightness and the super smooth drag. I toss 2 pound mono on this and have caught some serious drag pullers on it already.
i just pressed the button on the 6' premier light. midway usa has and awesome deal where you get a $75 free gift card when you order a st croix premier. I also bought a 6'10 med light st croix victory and got an additional 75$ gift certificate.
