Def a good deal and thanks for posting.
I have the 2500 and its probably one of if not the best lightest reel in the market!
It's especially great if you fish on a kayak like myself.

Agreed. I was worried the 7lb drag on the 2500 would be too light. But it's perfect with 6lb mono or 10lb braid.

Note this is the old Vanford model. The new Vanford has several trickle down features from the Stella.

I was able to get the new Vanford via Tackle Warehouse in their 20% Labor Day sale ($199), but that is a once a year if you're lucky type of deal, and I think they forgot to exclude it from the 20% off sale.

I remember the drag on 2500HG is 20lb which is pretty impressive for a lightweight reel. I also have two 2500HG, one with 6lb fluoro and one with 10lb braid. Never worried about drag after landing an 30lb carp and an 7 feet long gar with a 6lb drag president on a medium rod.

Why it is specially great on kayak?

Because it's the lightest and best quality reel you can buy. Not sure if you ever fished seating down on a kayak but there is a lot of tension on your shoulder while your holding the rod and reel (while jigging or just dropping it and holding it or just holding it and reeling it in)

I fish a lot for sheepshead so I'm constantly just dropping the lure or bait right beside the kayak and just holding it while I get a bite.

If I'm out there for 5 to 8 hours fishing like that I need a good light rod and reel or my shoulders and arms would be shot the next day.

Hope this makes sense and helps!
