The Hardy Averon Cassette Reel builds on the legacy of previous Hardy cassette reels with a completely redesigned frame, while retaining the trusted CLS locking system and compatibility with existing spools. The new frame enhances durability and utilises a practical open-cage design for the 4000–7000 sizes and an enclosed cage for the 9000 size. A robust disc drag system delivers ultra-smooth stopping power, scaled to the reel size, and features a regulator knob that provides precise adjustments with positive detents.##Designed with full compatibility in mind, the Averon Cassette features spools that are interchangeable with the previous generation (Ultradisc Cassette / UDC). This ensures seamless versatility, allowing anglers to use UDC spools with the Averon Cassette and vice versa, making it the ideal choice for anglers carrying multiple lines.

  • Bar stock 6061 anodized aluminum frame and spool carrier
  • Large arbor spool design
  • Cassette spool fully interchangeable with previous UDC reel
  • Secure slide switch cassette locking system
  • Supplied with two additional cassette spools
  • Supplied with a neoprene reel and spool case

    Flexibility

    I paired the Hardy Averon Cassette Reel with my Winston Air 2 Reach (10’ 6wt), and this setup has turned out to be exactly what I was looking for.

    My goal was simple: I wanted to fish multiple 6wt lines for different techniques without owning multiple expensive reels or constantly stripping and re-spooling lines. Anyone who fishes a variety of techniques knows how frustrating and time-consuming that can be — not to mention how hard it is on your fly lines. For dry fly fishing and light presentations, I use:

    RIO Outbound Short, Airflo Superflo Max Ridge 2.0 Ultra Supple Universal Taper and for touch-and-go Scandi-style presentations, I also run: Scientific Anglers Integrated Scandi 180gr. At the moment, I have three fly lines spooled and ready to go, and I’ll likely add another set of three spools in the near future. The beauty of the Averon Cassette system is exactly this flexibility — one reel, multiple spools, instant changeover.

    On the Winston Air 2 Reach 10’ 6wt, the balance feels right. The reel has a clean, modern look but still carries that classic Hardy feel. The drag is smooth and consistent — more than enough for trout and light steelhead work. The cassette spools are lightweight yet surprisingly durable. They snap in securely, and changing lines on the river takes seconds. No more backing knots coming loose, no more wasted time, and no more stress about damaging expensive fly lines by repeatedly swapping them.

    Owning multiple premium reels is very expensive. If…
