There is nothing quite like the Hardy Marksman range.
It isn't just the input of science and technology that makes the Marksman rods so extraordinary, there are other very important considerations. We've utilised the input from our enviable line-up of top consultants and expert rod designers.
Alan Yates has spent nearly three years on the design project and John Bailey has been testing the rods on the bank for nearly as long. So have many others, including Dave Coster. All have been pushing the prototypes to the limits.
The Ultralite Bomb is a super light, yet surprisingly powerful quivertip rod that comes into its own when targeting fish under hard conditions or in tighter situations. It is equally at home on slow paced rivers, small overgrown stillwaters and man-made fisheries.
Even larger lakes, where fish patrol the margins, are suitable for this highly sensitive rod, which copes beautifully with accurate, short to mid range legering and light feeder work.
Sensitive 1oz and 1.5oz carbon quivertips are supplied, for enhanced bite detection. The *Hardy Anti-Lock action, incorporated into the blank, produces almost ‘electric’ fish-playing experience.
*Hardy Anti-lock is built in to all Marksman rods. Essentially, when the rod is under load, in a fish-playing situation, it continues to transfer the power, and lunges of the fish, into the rod curve rather than bottoming out too quickly. This greatly reduces the chances of hook pulls, and makes fish playing a truly rewarding experience. By using a special blend of carbons and optimum resin ratios, Hardy have fine tuned the Marksman range to offer ultra high performance rods that retain that all important fish-playing feel.
All Marksman rods come with protective cordura tube, aluminium stoppers and custom designed anodised aluminium reel seats with screw down reel hoods. (Images below)
