The "Perfect" Reel combines the
advantages of being able to disconnect quickly, the only tool required
being a coin, with the power of regulating the check, and braking a
fish, by pressure of the fingers on the exposed plate of the revolving
drum.

Managing Director of Hardy & Greys,
Richard Sanderson said:
“The opportunity of
introducing the Hardy Bros, Heritage range is an exciting addition to
the 2009 Product line and we are proud to take Hardy back to its roots.”
“Heritage
products are seen the world over. Today original Perfect reels are worth
their weight in gold. As well as being a classic to own, early Hardy
Perfects are a sound investment in fishing. Hardy Heritage - history in
the future of world fly fishing.”
“Hardy
plans to revive many classic designs in its Heritage range and are the
only fishing tackle manufacturing company with a royal warrant and one
hundred and thirty seven years of experience.”
The Perfect Reel. The reel that needs no introduction, the reel that is
perhaps the most famous product ever to have left the Hardy factory in
Alnwick. A timeless design utilizing the most modern technology made
once again in Alnwick, England - the Perfect really does exemplify the
Heritage range.
The high quality bar-stock aluminum, agate line guard, the dovetailed
reel fitting, the durable gunmetal grey, anodized finish with
distinctive ivorine handle all make this one of history's most
strikingly recognizable reels. And how well it fishes - fifteen
stainless steel ball-bearings give the smoothest of winds.
The click-check in the two larger models and the fixed in the smallest
have protected the lightest tippets for decades. Perfect really does
mean perfect.

Tip: A spare spool is
always a wise investment. Instructions
for Cleaning and Oiling the "Perfect" Reel.
To dismount the Reel - Remove with a coin, the small left handed screw in
center of plate. Hold the line drum, with one hand and unscrew the revolving
plate, by turning handle; when the plate is unscrewed the drum may be taken
out. All should be wiped clean, and the parts oiled. To put Reel together,
