News Release From Hardy & Greys Ltd.

The Hardy & Greys stand proved a major magnet to visitors at the CLA Game Fair this year.

Held at Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, Hardy & Greys were at the very heart of Fishermans row supporting no less than eight of their top retail dealers located throughout the Fishing Village.

A full range of new products were being showcased by the Northumbrian fishing tackle company, including the new Hardy Angel2 rods and Hardy Perfect and St George Reels – all made in Alnwick, England. From Greys there was the new X-Flite and Platinum XD rod ranges as well as a full range of new waders and boots.

CLA Success for Hardy & Greys LtdTop Hardy & Greys Consultants including Charles Jardine, Chris Ogborne, Ian Gordon, Henry Gilbey, Nick Hart and John Bailey were all on hand to offer help and advice at all levels and members of the Hardy & Greys Academy, Andy Smith (England), Howard Taylor (England), David Bell (Scotland), Stevie Munn and Stevie Kennedy (Ireland) were also present, giving casting tuition and sharing their top fishing tips.

The competition being held on the stand to win an Angel2 rod worth £1,000 or St George reel worth £650 was also a big success with many customers entering.

Hardy & Greys also sponsored the show casting clinic in partnership with GAIA. Instructors used Hardy & Greys equipment and sported the company clothing, whilst offering tuition which gave visitors the opportunity to improve on their casting skills throughout the show.

For the past 7 years, Hardy & Greys have sponsored the Hardy Youth Open Salmon Distance Championship and Greys Youth Open Trout Distance Championship. This year the winner of both competitions was Joseph Avery-Harris from Wiltshire.

Sales and Marketing Director, Ken Brewster said;
“We do not attend the CLA just to sell tackle, we are equally delighted when anglers come to us to discuss a problem with their casting, their techniques or simply just to talk fishing. Our experts are on hand throughout the fair to offer advice on all aspects of fishing, offering a unique opportunity for anglers to talk with the best team in the business.
“As a company we are very excited about the year ahead. We have a lot of new products being introduced including a new rod and reel from Hardy and three new ranges of Greys rods. There is also some fantastic clothing coming from both brands. We are looking forward to the year ahead and hope to see you again at the 2010 CLA.”

The 2010 CLA will be held at Ragley Hall, Warwickshire on Friday 23rd – Sunday 25th July.
