Hardy Perfect Fly Reel 3 1/8" with a Spare Spool

Hardy Perfect Fly Reel 3 1/8" with a Spare SpoolA nice Hardy Perfect trout reel with a spare spool, 3 1 8" diameter and set up for the usual RHW. Later enamel model with a Mark II check. Good overall condition with normal cosmetic wear but no meaningful issues that I could find. Ribbed brass foot with an ebonite handle. The rim tensioner works as it should and the drag has a smooth pleasing click. Both the reel and spare spools pack into a double zipper suede pouch.

Two rivet latch

A terrific dry-fly rod for smaller flies

Includes original bag and original tube with green and white paper label intact

and unmolested

The butt cap as the sweetgrass logo on it

Four rod sections and one tip (as originally made)

"7 1/2 / #3  25th Anniversary No 4" is inked on the shaft above the keeper

This rod was built in 2010 and hollow built through the butt and mid

The handle has a crack in it but is still firmly in place and in my opinion not in need of repair

The rod has a wonderfully smooth and crisp medium-fast action with all the feel and finesse one could want from a glass rod

Near mint condition with just some very faint signs of use

Oxidized and highly truncated swiss style ferrules
