Hardy Sovereign Spitfire Fly Reel
The Hardy Sovereign Spitfire marks the worthy comeback of one of Hardy’s most beloved fly reels. Originally launched in 1987, the Sovereign series quickly gained a reputation for its outstanding performance and exceptional durability. Produced until the late 1990s, it has since become highly sought after by both anglers and collectors.
Now, the Sovereign is back—better than ever. The new Spitfire edition retains the timeless design and performance of the original while incorporating modern Hardy technology. Still handcrafted in Alnwick, England, each reel is meticulously refined by Hardy’s master craftsmen, ensuring every detail is polished to perfection.
Hardy’s historic catalog once described the Sovereign with a single word: "Magic"—and that still holds true today.
