In this video Peter reviews a modern day classic fly reel - The Hardy Marquis. Originally produced in 1969 this reel has been through many iterations and is now part of the Hardys Heritage line up still made in England in Alnwick factory. While guiding on the River Peter hears the noise of this reel which reminds him so much of his formative years fishing with his father and he decides to revisit fishing with this cross generation classic. He delves into the history of the Marquis before showing in detail what has changed in the modern Marquis LWT before taking it on the river with his daughter to once more hear that classic note sing while hooking and landing trout on the Chalkstreams.
With special thanks to Charlie Norris at the Hardys of Alnwick factory for providing the detailed history who has been making reel for over 35 years.
