Description

In very good original condition and in full working order, this Hardy Hardex No II MkII fixed spool reel is a fine example of mid-century Hardy engineering. It features a snappy, responsive bail arm, a clean Bakelite spool (with no chips or cracks), and is fully stamped with Hardy branding. Supplied in its original box.

Part of Hardy’s historic Hardex range, this model was produced during the 1940s–50s as a lightweight, reliable alternative to heavier fixed spool reels. Its solid alloy body, well-balanced gearing, and durable components make it equally suitable for traditional spinning, light coarse fishing, or as a prized item in a vintage tackle collection.

Features:

• Made in England by Hardy Bros, Alnwick

• Strong working bail arm – snappy and precise

• Original Bakelite spool – no cracks or chips

• Two-tone alloy body – lightweight and durable

• Fully stamped with Hardy details

• Supplied boxed

A great piece for collectors and traditional anglers alike—combining Hardy heritage, smooth operation, and timeless design.
