These new saltwater rods from Sage redefine what to expect from a mid-priced rod. If you’re after premium performance at a more realistic price – you’ve just found it.
Description
- Quick-Shot Presentations
- Increased Pulling And Lifting Power
- Oversized Guide-Set To Help Reduce Tangles Of Larger Saltwater Flies
Saltwater angling is more often a game of quick shots than long casts. Dropping a fly in front of a cruising tarpon 20ft off the bow can be the difference between success and failure during a day on the flats. In fact, most saltwater fisheries put a premium on getting the fly to the target quickly. Redfish meandering about Louisiana marshes, bonefish cruising marl-covered flats, and stripers slashing at the surface all demand precise, fast presentations.

Used this rod for redfish and bonefish on the flats. The quick-shot action helped me get flies to the target fast, which made a big difference in catching fish. The guides stayed clean and didn’t tangle even with large flies.

Felt solid and responsive. The increased lifting power helped when fighting larger stripers. Not as long as some premium rods, but perfect for close-range presentations in shallow water.

Great for beginners and experienced anglers alike. The oversized guides made a noticeable difference in avoiding tangles. I’ve used it in both marsh and open flats with good results.
