Shimano Vanquish 23 C2500sxg

Featured Replies

Hello anyone got  review on the Shimano Vanquish 23 model in the C2500sxg? I believe these are the same size like the other shimano 2000. What rod size and braided line test would be best with these reels?

PE#1, PE#0.8 - 

diameter 0.17 to 0.19 mm

 

Vanquish is the best finesse spinning reel ever.  Pick a rod that will take advantage of the feel.  But the right rod is going to depend more on your use.

I use 200 and 2500 size for every kind of fishing, So you can go 8lb PE with 4lb Fluoro, How is the water? what lure/techniques you going to use it for? for me ill go 8lb to 15lb braid at the max and I have 2lb to 8lb flour for leader depending on the fish and and lure and technique. so you can do 10lbPE with 5lb/6lb Fluoro for all around combo with a medium power fast action rod.

Thanks for the help guys the answer that I was looking for. I was either going to pair this reel up to my nrx+ 843s sjr or the daiwa steez the one. I will go ahead and get 10 pound braid and 6 pounds flouro for leader. I was planning to throw light t-rig, senkos, small Ned and drop shot on this set up.

I have the C2500S and it is the best spinning reel I ever used. 

 

It is the same size as the 2000S but with a larger spool. I use mine on the NRX+ 821S NRR. Just a totally fun set up. 

I have the C2500S. Fantastic!
