The story behind
Hardy fishing rods and reels began in the early 1870s, when William
Hardy and his brother started a gunsmithing business in Alnwick, Northumberland. Although they made a good living in northern England producing high-quality firearms, it wasn’t long before the brothers’ passion for fishing precipitated a change of direction for the company, and
Hardy rods and reels were the result.
Hardy was the first tackle company to build and market hexagonal bamboo rods and also introduced the first large-arbor reels in 1911.
