The Contented Angler
Hardy Reels
The name has probably been around since you began fishing, and within that time, many
companies have come and gone. You have to meet the constant challenge of a very competitive
marketplace to build a tradition like
Hardy. You may have an old one that would probably fetch
more today than what you paid for it. Today, the success and popularity of the
Hardy Angel is a
sure sign that Hardy continues to be at the fore-front of design. Sooner or later, you are going to
own one. There are reels, and there are Hardy's.
The Hardy Angel
The Angel performance fly reels represent the absolute pinnacle from a specification,
performance and design perspective. These reels set the standard to which every manufacturer
must now aspire.
Competitively priced, the five-model range is set to become one of the
best-selling Hardy reels of all time.
The reel is made from the highest quality aluminium, specially
manufactured to ensure both lightness and extreme strength. It is then subjected to an
accelerated maturing and stress relieving process that gives the highest possible performance and
durability.
Available in 4 - 12wt.
Angel Featherweight
The reel is anodized to architectural standards that increase the hardness of the
aluminium by an amazing four hundred per cent. The satin-silver finish is deliberately
made anti-glare and is complemented by champagne-gold highlights that proclaim the
reel for what it is – a timeless masterpiece.
Available in 2/3 and 3/4wt.
So many reels out there, it's hard to believe that ten years from now only one
will be worth as much or more than you paid for it. We are proud to be able
to offer you all Hardy Products.
Now Available!  The Hardy Swift & Swift TE
The disc drag mechanism utilises a one-way floating roller bearing that is fully interchangeable from left to
right-hand wind. The handle features a tactile grip of black carbon fibre weave, which you will find
comfortable to hold in all extremes of weather. The cageless design encourages quick and easy line changes
whilst the raised, ‘anti-snag’ reel seat removes the fear of any line tangle when that big fish runs.
