Hardy 4.5in Perfect Reel Alta One

Built to the original Hardy pattern, the Hardy 4.5in Perfect reel Alta One is a large diameter fly reel crafted in England for traditional salmon fishing.

Machined from bar stock aluminium, it features a deep spool and solid frame construction. Its time honoured click check mechanism delivers the distinctive audible resistance long associated with the Perfect series. The 4.5 inch diameter provides increased line capacity suited to heavier fly lines and larger rivers, while the classic profile preserves the proportions that define this historic model. Produced within Hardy's Made in England programme, this reel reflects the enduring mechanical principles that have shaped fly reel design for more than a century.
