Re: Hardy Angel - Made in ?????
I'm a Cortland Hardy Rep in the MW. A couple of questions:
1) Did you purchase the reel in the US or from an American dealer?
2) Does it say "Angel 2" on the frame of the reel?
Hardy has moved all reel production to Korea with the exceptiom of the Zane Ti, and lowered their prices. In the case of the Angel we (Cortland) still have a bit of British Inventory and are offering both. In the case of the Angel the 2 is actually an improved reel. It is easier to switch from R to LH wind and has an improved clicker system. It also has more venting and is a bit lighter. The box on the Korean reels should have a made in Korea sticker on it. Last years Bougle (the Mark VI) did not say made in England but it was, so I'm not sure about your Angel. But to my knowledge only the Angel Two's were made in Asia.
