Hardy Ultraclick

The Hardy Ultraclick (UCL series) is Hardy's lightest fly reel ever produced — a minimalist, ultra-lightweight click-pawl design crafted for finesse trout fishing and light-line enthusiasts. Machined from high-grade aluminum with intelligent porting and a fully enclosed line guard frame, it excels with ultra-thin fly lines, leader-only systems, Euro nymphing, or small-stream presentations where every ounce matters.

Key features include:

• Adjustable all-metal clicker system — smooth, consistent spring-and-pawl drag with classic melodic ratchet sound, light-tippet friendly and fully reversible
• Fully enclosed line guard — protects delicate thin lines and leaders from damage or tangles
• Ultra-large arbor — fast line retrieval, reduced memory, and quick pickup
• Push-off spool release — easy, tool-free spool changes
• Lightweight construction — often under 2.5 oz (e.g., ~2.2 oz in smaller models)
• Anodized finish — durable, corrosion-resistant

Typical sizes (2000–5000 series) suit 2–5 wt lines, with capacities like WF4 + 45 yds 20 lb backing — ideal for 2–4 wt rods targeting brook trout, small rainbows, grayling, or technical dry-fly/nymph work on small streams and pocket water. A groundbreaking, ultralight classic — sleek, melodic, and built for delicate, high-sensitivity fly fishing.
