Boron is five times as strong and twice as stiff as steel, yet lighter than aluminum; it lets us add 25% more strength to graphite while significantly reducing weight. Our Boron IIx rods take full advantage of this material's amazing properties and have redefined the fast-action category.

These are the ultimate big game rods for anglers looking for the versatility needed to target everything from the salmon runs of Alaska, to the striper rips of Long Island, to big pike in Canada.

X2s rods deliver performance to match the challenging conditions you’ll encounter when you’re chasing big fish in a variety of environments.

Sink tips, long line pickups, and gigantic flies push rods to the edge. X2s rods are built with large diameter blanks and use our leading edge reinforcements to increase stability under extreme load.

Hardy designed much of his tackle for many of his exploratory angling trips around the seas of the world. After a great deal of testing and even more feedback, the new Zane range of saltwater fly rods is going to prove a worthy tribute to one of angling's great pioneers.

The key to the Zane rods are the blanks, amongst the slimmest ever produced, capable of cutting through coastal winds like a knife. A careful blend of multi-modulus fibers allows easy loading but very fast recovery - the perfect combination for quick accurate casting over any range.
