Ultralite Fly Rod Hardy Single Handed Fly Rods

Why We Like The Ultralite Fly Rod

Taking over the blueprint of one of our favorite rod series—the Zephreus—Hardy’s Ultralite Fly Rod still brings us that great all-around freshwater performance, but with all-new fly rod technology, top-tier componentry, and impressive versatility that’s ready for any angling scenario. Made with Hardy’s proprietary Sintrix blank, the Ultralite has an even lighter and more responsive feel than the Zephreus, providing us with more feedback and quicker recovery times without affecting the rod’s strength. From the short 3-weight to the 10-foot 8-weight, this versatile rod series exemplifies the mastery of form and function we’ve come to expect from Hardy.
