The Ari’T Hart & Stu Apte Tarpon/Sailfish and Bonefish/Permit Reel Set (#065/250) is an extraordinary limited-edition pairing that represents the pinnacle of functional artistry in saltwater fly fishing. Designed in collaboration with legendary angler Stu Apte and Dutch reelmaker Ari’t Hart, this meticulously crafted set includes two purpose-built reels—one for Tarpon/Sailfish, the other for Bonefish/Permit—each engineered to handle the speed, strength, and endurance of the most prized saltwater species.
Machined from aerospace-grade anodized aluminum, both reels feature Ari’t Hart’s signature industrial aesthetic and innovative design elements, including powerful, sealed drag systems and ergonomic spools for rapid line retrieval and consistent pressure. Numbered 065 of only 125 sets produced, this rare collector’s edition is as visually striking as it is performance-driven, offering a seamless blend of bold design and saltwater-ready reliability.
Presented in a custom case, this set is not only a tribute to two masters of the sport but also a grail-worthy addition for collectors and serious saltwater anglers alike. Bold. Precise. Iconic. This set is in excellent original condition.
