Hardy Shadow Fly Rod 9′ 5 weight

The Hardy Shadow is a surprising rod at it’s price point – in our opinion, it can easily hang up there with rods twice the price! It’s a medium fast action rod that recovers quickly and feels light in the hand, which makes for a rod that is fun and easy to fish. We’re particularly impressed with the 4 weight for a Black Hills rod. If you’re looking for a high performance rod at a middle of the road price, the Hardy Shadow is definitely a rod worth looking at. 

Here’s what hardy has to say about them – Hardy Shadow Fly rods bring a new level of technology and value to the Hardy Brand. Sintrix 220 is the stepping stone into the industry leading Sintrix Technology platform. Hardy Shadow features an easy loading yet sharp recovering blank design that gives easy access to user friendly high performance.
