  • Legendary parabolic taper progresses from 0.279" to 0.404" for 40lb+ lifting power, engineered for 550-grain Skagit lines with 15ft T-20 tips
  • Reinforced blank structure withstands 4m swells in Icelandic fjords and Patagonian rapids with torsional stability
  • 18% nickel silver ferrules ensure reliable connections during deepwater battles
  • Crafted from premium Tonkin bamboo with 72-step handcrafting process, comes varnished (optional raw finish)
  • Designed for pelagic giants: juvenile North Atlantic Bluefin Tuna and Kamchatka Steelhead

This Hardy "The Fairy" taper blank features oceanic-grade construction, with precisely tempered bamboo transitioning from 0.279" at 75" to 0.404" at 110". The 72-hour thermal treatment process preserves parabolic action integrity even with 550-grain setups. Six-strip Tonkin bamboo undergoes traditional carbonization, paired with 18% nickel silver ferrules that eliminate vibration in 2m/s Norwegian spawning currents.

Pre-finished with water-based varnish (optional raw blank), this blank allows professional customization for heavy-duty applications. The taper specifically optimizes 200g jigging fly manipulation, with progressive stress distribution from tip to grip that absorbs initial runs from 150lb juvenile bluefin tuna. Ideal for slow-pitch jigging near offshore platforms with T-20 sinking lines.
