About the film

The Lost World of Mr. Hardy is a feature-length documentary film about a much loved family fishing tackle business. It was directed by Andy Heathcote and Heike Bachelier.

The film tells the story of the disappearing art of the craftsman through the history of the Hardy Brothers, the Rolls-Royce of fishing tackle makers. The film includes rediscovered footage of salmon fishing 80 years ago shown with old film reels, filmed by L.R. Hardy and his chauffeur 'Appleby' in the 1920s.
