HARDY MARKSMAN 1008-4 FLY ROD
In the fluid environment that we ply our craft, the demands are ever changing. Few days truly hit the mark to be deemed "perfect" although it can be argued that any day spent by water is perfect enough. When we fish, the demands we place on little more than a couple of ounces of carbon fibre are considerable, we expect featherlight touch and feel in close, backbone enough to drive a long, fast and accurate loop but with the durability to fight and land that fish of the day, season or even a lifetime.
The new Hardy Marksman has been designed, developed and tested with this incredibly varied challenge in mind. A strong, yet considerably lighter blank has been matched with an all new reel seat that further accentuates the weight reduction and promotes an almost weightless in hand feel. Fitted with titanium guides and dressed in a subtle non-flash golden olive, its understated looks hide a capability that needs to be experienced. Designed and developed in Alnwick England during Hardy's 150th year our new flagship rod "The Marksman" truly hits the mark to be deemed "perfect".

HARDY ULTRADISC UDLA 7000 FLY REEL : 6-8WT
The Hardy Ultradisc 7000 UDLA fly reel is a lightweight disc drag reel in the purest form. The Ultradisc features everything you need and nothing that you don’t in a disc drag fly reel. Designed with an innovative frame, this reel sets a new standard in lightweight performance reels, allowing the use of ultrathin fly lines and running lines as well as leader only systems popular in modern nymphing techniques. The Scaled multi-pad drag system is also unregulated, meaning fine adjustments of the drag pressure over a large window is possible.
