The core of the Hardy performance reel range, the large arbor Averon delivers the quality and reliability that are hallmarks of the Hardy brand. Its lightweight yet durable design is discreet made to blend performance, fishability, and long term reliability in a stylish large arbor design. Depending on the size, the reels benefit from either open or closed-frame designs. An open frame is used on sizes where weight reduction and quick spool changes are important and a closed frame is used on both the 5000 EN and 9000 models where thin running lines or specialist euronymphs can be used lines. For over 150 years, Hardy has been at the forefront of reel design and this latest addition is built to both exacting standards and a passion for innovation.
