Hardy has reinventd Glass Fibre Fly Rods?
The Glass fibre fly rod has been largely ignored over the past twenty years. Adding glass to the mix gives a rod incredible durability and resistance to impact - making it ideal for the toughest fishing on back-country rivers and streams.
By mixing glass to carbon Hardy has achieved an easy loading, smooth action glass fibre fly rod, with controlled, well-dampened recovery.
The easy loading nature of these rods makes them sensational. They allow short range, controlled presentation with the absolute minimum of fly line beyond the tip ring. For the light, stream angler working in the tightest situations, Hardy Glass is the perfect choice for the beginning or casual flyfisher.
Testimonials . .
"I was puzzled at first. Reverting to glass seemed a step backwards. In fact, once I held the rod, I realised it was a step backwards to make a giant leap forwards. You've got to load this rod up with reel and line to appreciate its true gifts. This is a rod that can cast with just inches of line out from the tip ring. Its accuracy and sensitivity in tight situations take my breath away. It's easy to be sceptical but let me tell you this. Glass is no gimmick. It's here to stay. The future for a lot of my stream fishing."
