The Hardy Heritage Series
The St. George Trout reel
There was an audible sigh of satisfaction when Hardy announced
that they would once again be building the iconic St. George trout
reels in our factory in Alnwick. The St George Junior 2 9/16” and
the St. George 3” are among the most coveted Hardy reels ever
made. Hardy never made a lot of these reels and the secondary
market pricing proves the point. Machined from bar-stock and
hard anodized, the new St. George trout reels are available in a
choice of either black or natural aluminum “Spitfire” finishes. Both
are equally at home on the finest bamboo or graphite fly rods. I
can't help but think there are many people out there who paid big
bucks for a modern trout reel and are now saying: "I could have
had a St. George"

It requires flawless workmanship to reach the "Mark of
Distinction" and once you have it, it never fades. No modern
reel will ever get there. Let you friends show you their fancy
modern reels and then show them this one of a kind work of
art that tells the story of fly fishing.
