Hardy Sovereign Fly Reel Black

The Hardy Sovereign Fly Reel Black is the revival of a true Hardy icon. First conceived in 1987 and produced through the late 1990s, the Sovereign earned its reputation by combining advanced specifications with outstanding long-term dependability. Today, these new Sovereign reels are still made in Alnwick, England, to the same exacting standards that made the originals legendary.

Built for real-world fly fishing, the Sovereign Black features a self-lubricating disc drag designed for smooth, consistent control. A fast, tool-free left/right hand selector lever makes conversion quick and effortless, while the outgoing sound can be set to click or silent depending on your preference. Engineered from bar stock aluminium and finished with deep anodizing, it offers the durability and premium feel expected from a Hardy classic.
