The Hardy JLH #7 Commemorative Fly Reel. Ltd Ed No. 14
Product Description
The JLH #7 Commemorative Fly Reel has been produced to commemorate the life of the late James Leighton Hardy, for whom the JLH reel was named.
The reel is based on James Leighton Hardy's original ‘JLH' design, and features a wide ranging click check system, stunning ‘Rose Gold' finish and unique commemorative engraving. The limited edition of 85 numbered reels has been shipped to a selection of Hardy dealers for sale across the world.
James Hardy was the last member of the Hardy dynasty to work for the company that his grandfather had founded. Born in Alnwick in 1927, Jim started fishing at the age of 7 and became a very successful angler, winning no less than 38 British and world casting championship titles. Jim joined the Hardy company in the early 1950s and retired in 1992. Jim remained a consultant for the company until his death, earlier this year.
Two of the reels will be gifted to Jim's children, Roy and Rona, and Roy commented:
"My sister Rona and I were fortunate to have our father teach us to fish and, from him we learnt to enjoy the sport in all its glory. It is my hope that you will also have as much pleasure from your purchase of this reel as Rona and I have had fishing with our father."

* Tracked/ Next Day Service Details
Where we specifically offer next day delivery or tracked service we use a very reliable carrier on a next working day service but we cannot actually guarantee next day delivery perhaps due to the part of the country you live in or because of high pressure on carriers at certain times of the year. So not guaranteed for next day but we do our very best and rarely fail. Should goods be out of stock for day or two we will send them on separately ASAP. If longer we will contact you for your preference.
