In deference to the man himself, when Hardy set about making a saltwater fly reel, they just knew they had to make it the best. And the Zane Ti reel is the best. It’s a masterpiece of design, material and construction that will be hard to better however long man is making fishing reels. The design and the features of the Zane Ti are shared with the Zane and they are exceptional. It’s in the Letters Ti, though, wherein lies the difference. Consider this. The creation of the highest grade aluminium reels demands around six minutes of engineering on today’s machines. With a titanium reel, this process takes six whole days to hand craft one reel. The result is a stronger, lighter reel totally impervious to corrosion. Machined completely by hand, the care and attention that goes into it is mind-blowing . . so is it's price. Hardy only makes six of the Zane Ti reels available each month at it's Alnwick factory. The Zane reel is constructed so that you can flush it clean at the end of its working day. The open drag system the reel incorporates mean that the sand, gravel and salt that goes in can just as easily be washed out. The drag plate is knurled so it is supremely easy to set the drag and make the most minor of adjustments. The Zane reels allow you to preset the maximum drag setting to suit your tippet strength exactly. Once set, the drag can’t be over-tightened to result in a break-off. The reel is well ventilated, partly for lightness but mainly for heat dissipation in the course of the battle. Titanium is self-healing. Scratch it and the raw metal oxidizes in minutes. Because titanium is inert, nothing can rust it. If you threw it to the bottom of the Florida Keys and left it there for thirty years and then retrieved it, it would be like new once you’d scraped off the barnacles.
