FWS, AWS and SWS

FRESHWATER, ALL WATER AND SALTWATER

Tactical and Extreme

A number of Hardy rods within our series feature T or E designations. T designated rods are designed with highly tactical situations in mind where a careful combination of line feel, recovery and carefully calibrated blank stiffness are required to meet specific challenges.

Rods designated with an E are typically more at the 'extreme' end of the scale where ultrafast actions and high recovery are specifically required.

Freshwater (FWS)

FWS or "Freshwater series" rods feature selected wood spacers, refined handle designs and carefully selected hardware offering the optimum blend of lightness and durability.

All water (AWS)

AWS or "All water series" rods are designed to bridge the gap between light, freshwater and heavy saltwater applications, featuring saltwater safe hardware and fittings, including carbon or aluminium reel seat inserts, larger guides and more powerful actions.

Saltwater (SWS)

SWS or "Saltwater series" rods are true hardcore saltwater rods, designed to meet the challenges of the saltwater environment head on. The rods feature heavy duty fixtures and fittings including extra large guides, heavy duty salt safe reel seats and enlarged fighting butts.
