2020 ICAST Online Best of Category Winner – Fly Fishing Rod

Why redesign possibly the greatest saltwater fly rod ever built? Why reduce the shaft diameter on selected sizes for better wind penetration and reduced weight? Why redesign the mandrels and pattern layups to squeeze every last drop of performance out of the aerospace grade carbon fibre and advanced Sintrix 440 resin system? Why upgrade the guides to the latest generation in ceramic lined titanium recoils? Why upgrade to a single start scratch resistant hard anodized reel seat? Why build it in a Rod factory with 147 years of rod building heritage? The simple answer is why not.

2020 ICAST Online Best of Category Winner – Fly Fishing Reel

A light weight disc drag reel in its purest form, the all new Hardy Ultradisc UDLA reel features everything you need and nothing you don’t in a disc drag fly reel. With an innovative frame design, this reel sets a new standard in light weight performance reels while allowing the use of ultra thin fly lines and running lines, as well as leader- only systems popular in modern river fishing. The scaled multi- pad drag system is also unregulated, meaning fine adjustment of the drag pressure over a large window is possible.
