After a brief absence in 2020, the Orlando Convention Center was once again filled with new, exciting and innovative rods, reels, baits and gadgets at the world’s largest fishing show. I had the chance to walk the aisles at ICAST 2021 and see some of the new fishing gear that will hit the market this fall and next year. Here are my top picks for the best new ICAST rods and reels.

It was one of my favorite products of all ICAST. A celebration of the 150-year-old Hardy’s brand, this new anniversary reel, inspired by the 1970 edition, exudes a sense of nostalgia. It has a nickel silver twin screw line guide, a raised spindle housing and comes with a collectible leather reel case. The commemorative engraving is also a fine touch, and this reel is quite the beautiful one. Combined with a classic click, this reel will bring back memories of forgotten rivers and lost fish. An aesthetic reel that immediately attracted me. MSRP: $ 500.
