Hardy St. George The Royal Wedding Commemorative 3 inch Fly Reel MADE IN ENGLAND - LIMITED EDITION
The Original St. George reels were produced by Hardy Bros. In Alnwick, England from 1911 until 1983 and the fact they were produced for so long that they were amongst the finest fishing reels ever made.
This limited edition, Gold anodised model, produced in a run of just 100, is engraved with the wording “TO COMMEMORATE THE MARRIAGE OF PRINCE WILLIAM OF WALES AND MISS CATHERINE MIDDLETON, 29TH APRIL 2011”.
Hardy have had connections to the British Royal Family since 1898 when The Duke of York granted his patronage to the company. This was followed in 1901 by the Prince of Wales, who went further by Granting a Royal Warrant. Further patronages or Royal Warrants were granted by The Princess Royal (1906), King George V (1911), Queen Mary (1911), Princess Mary (1923) and The Prince of Wales (1931).
since 1980, Hardy have held a Royal Warrant as manufacturers of fishing tackle for the current Prince of Wales, Prince Charles.
Named after St. George, Patron Saint of England, the first model in this long running series was a 3 3/4 inch Trout Reel, weighing only 6 ounces. It was no just an incredibly lightweight reel for its day - it was also fitted as standard with such innovative features as a circular agate line guard and a compensating check.
Continuous innovations have been made to the St. George over the years but for the Hardy collector, the original St. George is considered something to behold and highly sought after. The engraved Royal Wedding Commemorative Gold edition is certain to be held in the same high regard.
