With over 30 years of service to anglers across the world, the lineup of Van Staal VSX2 Spinning Reels continues the next chapter of the VS series to all new heights. Several key improvements were made to the VSX2, continuing its benchmark status of durability and reliability that the VS series has been legendary for. Additional sizes also round out the series, giving anglers the ability to tackle skinny water flats all the way to the offshore environment for pelagics, beach tarpon and other big water species.
The VSX2 implements a new unibody design, meaning that this reel utilizes a fully machined one-piece body and stem. Overall strength & rigidity of the reel is enhanced with this design, while also increasing its sealing from adverse environments. A longer handle, power knob, and enhanced drag knob come stock with this reel, giving the angler the ultimate experience on the water from the start. Its oversized clutch was moved over to the pinion side, providing the angler with greater responsiveness with every handle turn.
This reels rugged and overbuilt qualities produce one of the toughest spinning reels on the market, perfectly suiting itself to tolerate abuse in the surf and beyond. Its simplistic design utilizes some of the highest quality components and materials to make sure every moment on the water counts, allowing the angler to focus on the fish in front of them with peace of mind that the gear they're holding will do the task when called upon.

Great reel. Bought the VSX2 in 150 size and put it on A ODM DNA 10.6. Great combo the reel is solid. Salt waters Edge speedy shipping and always top notch Customer Service.
Haven't used it yet. It has a recall.
Small reel, but tons of power. Pairs perfectly with my 9' Lamiglas Carbon Surf Light. Looking forward to putting more fish on it this coming spring as I've only had a couple fish on it so far. The stock power knob and larger drag knob are a big plus as well.
So I recently purchased van staals new vsvx2 reel,,,I looked at one at striperfest 2022 and fell in love with it!!!!!! I love the smaller reels and lighter equipment to be always on the move in the surf,,,and these reels take extreme punishment!!!!! I have ruined several other manufacturers reels from being submerged in saltwater....a great friend of mine told me to never let your equipment fail you and with this new reel I am looking forward to many successful trips in the surf!!!!!!!
