The Hardy 1912 Perfect fly reel blends classic early-20th century styling with modern precision engineering to deliver smooth, reliable line control for trout and salmon anglers. Crafted by Hardy Bros in Alnwick, England, this compact reel (3 1/8" diameter, 5.68 oz / 161 g) features a deep anodized gunmetal finish and the original 1912 Perfect check mechanism for dependable performance on delicate presentations.

Key Features

  • 1912 Perfect Check Mechanism: Time-tested click check design provides a positive, audible drag for controlled fights.
  • Red Agate Line Guard: Polished agate protection reduces friction and protects fine fly lines when casting and retrieving.
  • Narrow Spool & Alloy Construction: Bar-stock aluminium spool with naval brass 1-piece spindle for a lightweight, durable build.
  • Includes Leather Pouch: Supplied in a soft leather, sheepskin-lined Hardy reel pouch for secure storage and transport.

Hardy’s 1912 Perfect is ideal for anglers who value classic aesthetics combined with modern materials. It accepts a WF5 fly line with backing (WF5 + 75 yd of 20 lb Dacron noted in specs) and offers a low 0.5 lb max drag suitable for light to medium freshwater work. The compact 3 1/8" size and 5.68 oz weight make it easy to carry all day while maintaining precise line control. Available in left- and right-hand configurations, the Hardy 1912 Perfect pairs well with traditional fly rods and modern setups alike.

Specifications: Diameter 3 1/8" (size 3), weight 5.68 oz (161 g), spool material alloy, deep anodized gunmetal finish, made in Alnwick, England.
