Hardy Aydon 9' 5wt Fly Rod

Our Thoughts:

Then 9' 5wt Hardy Aydon was our best selling budget 5wt in 2023 for a reason. This rod flat out performs regardless of the conditions or technique. This rod perfectly places dry flies to rising fish, handles nymph rigs like no other, and can even throw smaller streamers. The rod is slightly on the softer end, but has plenty of reserved power to turn over heavy rigs and fight large fish.

Here's What Hardy Has To Say:

A perfect blend of balance, recovery, and power, the user-friendly performance of the Aydon series is the optimum mix between casting performance and true "fishability". Carefully designed and manufactured with Sintrix material and then meticulously tested, the Aydon Single Handed series offers a comprehensive assortment of single handed models to cover everything from small stream trout to stillwater fishing large bodies of open water. These light weight rods have been refined by countless hours of on-water development to ensure that each model is perfectly tailored to meet your expectations. Fitted with top quality hardware and a purposefully designed reel seat, the Aydon is also supplied in a convenient travel tube and high-quality rod bag.
