Hardy Averon Streamer Fly Reel

Built for the Eat, the Strip, and the Chaos After

Purpose-Built for Anglers Hunting Big Predators

Streamer fishing happens fast. A fish appears, commits, and suddenly slack line becomes the difference between control and chaos. The Hardy Averon Streamer Fly Reel was developed alongside legendary streamer angler Kelly Galloup to solve the specific demands of streamer fishing—making it the industry’s first reel designed specifically for the job.

Built on Hardy’s trusted Averon platform and purposefully re-engineered for aggressive retrieves and rapid line control, the Averon Streamer prioritizes what matters most when big predators eat. An extra-large arbour reduces line memory and accelerates pickup, helping anglers clear slack and regain tension when fish change direction without warning.

To further speed retrieval, incoming resistance has been nearly eliminated, allowing the spool to spin freely with a quick slap of the handle or spool rim. Increased spool mass boosts momentum and durability, while an enlarged handle and counterbalance improve grip and control during fast-paced fights.

When streamer fishing turns chaotic, the Averon Streamer is built to respond instantly.
