Saltwater fishing can quickly change from gentle, early morning winds to strong gusts and rough water. If you don't want to put the rod away in any of these situations so you don't miss out on the chance to catch a skipjack, permit or tarpon, you should reach for the Hardy Marksman Z. Because the traditional company Hardy has understood how to develop a rod for every situation of the demanding streamer fishing.
The Hardy Marksman Z fly rod is the new all-round rod for streamer fishing in fresh and salt water from the house of Hardy. It is again significantly lighter than its predecessors, but does not lose power and robustness. On the one hand, weight saving is due to the Sintrix technology, which gives the blank an extreme compressive strength without increasing weight or material thickness. On the other hand, the Marksman fly rod was provided with a new reel seat from Hardy, which saves some weight. The snake rings used are of course Recoil rings made of titanium, which also spring back into position after a load without damaging the winding or varnish. The guide rings of the rod are also made of corrosion-resistant titanium and are also equipped with an extremely smooth ceramic insert, which minimizes friction and guarantees maximum casting distances. The casts with a Marksman Z also gain in distance due to the powerful blank with a fast action and a very fast recovery. The powerful rod can fire extremely tight, precise loops to target passing fish. The powerful backbone of the lower parts ensures that the rod can also be pushed again to a few extra meters, but above all it gives security in the fight strong big fish!
The Hardy Marksman Z fly rod is the first choice when it comes to cover a wide window in streamer fishing. Whether for pike in freshwater or from sea trout to tarpon in saltwater. The Marksman Z convinces all along the line with wide, easy casts, its light weight and maximum robustness, which can be decisive in demanding fishing for big fish. Light, precise and powerful, with the Hardy Marksman Z you are a whole step closer to the fish of the day, or even of a lifetime.
