Sage Fly Rods

Sage Fly Rods. One of the finest fly rods on the market today.

Sage Two Handed-Spey (Free Shipping) Sage Manufacturing Corp Wherever your quest for steelhead or salmon takes you, from the rumbling, glacial rivers of the Pacific Northwest to Quebec, Iceland or Russia, one fact is a constant: you will have to cover a lot of water. Sage’s two-handed rods are designed to make long casts and powerful mends easier and more efficient. In other words, you’ll spend more time fishing effectively and less time stripping line, false casting and snagging streamside brush. They also understand that long casts mean nothing without proper line control, which is why their two-handed rods are without equal when it comes to making precise mends in complex currents. And because you will probably make more than a few casts between fish-not that you’re counting-the light, lively feel of a Sage two-hander makes each cast and swing a pleasure. Once you try one of their traditional spey-action tapers or faster, European-style rods, you’ll wonder how you ever fished with a single-hander-or any other two-hander, for that matter. VT2 Medium-Fast Action Rods In keeping with the VT2 tradition of versatility, these easy-to-cast two-handed spey rods are a great value for beginners, but offer plenty of performance for seasoned anglers as well. Z Axis Fast Action & Traditional Action Rods The Z Axis Series covers a wide range of two-handed applications, from ultra-light to heavy-duty. G5 Technology means remarkably light weight and enhanced line feel for greater ease and efficiency in both modern as well as traditional casting styles. The Z Axis 8129-4 and 8134 handles look like this: The Z Axis 10150-4 handle looks like this: TCX Ultra-Fast Action Rods New for 2009 Like their single-handed counterparts, TCX two-handers are extremely fast, powerful rods made incredibly light and responsive through G5 Technology. Perfect for heavy heads, big water and wind! $585.00
Sage 99 Series Fly Rod A day of multi-bug rigs, wind-resistant indicators and the requisite high-stick rod position can be enough to make your arm fall off before lunch. But the fact is $699.00
Sage TCX (Free Shipping) NEW SERIES Sage Manufacturing Corp Sage TCX Series (Free Shipping) If you prefer fast action rods, we know of none finer than these. These rods are cannons but with a bunch of feel! Unlike the predecessor TCR series or other super fast action rods on the market, the Sage TCX are a lot easier to cast, imparting a greater degree of sensitivity. These are not only the best streamer and flats distance casting rods, but great fishing rods as well! (See review below) $780.00
Sage Flight Series Fly Rods Sage has introduced the all-new Flight series of fly rods with a range of even lighter, smoother fly rods. $340.00
Sage Bass/ Specialty Rods (Free Shipping) Sage Manufacturing Corp Sage Bass and Bluegill Series Fly Rods A 7′ 11″ 4 piece rod that comes with a specially designed fly line that makes presenting large flies into impossibly tight quarters a snap. These rods are incredible. We have found them to cast impossibly large flies with the greatest of ease and without the effort usually associated with the typical 9′ 7-9 wt fly rod. They also allow for a quick hook set, and give you more leverage for stopping a fish before a quick dash into the nearest obstruction. Even if you are an occasional bass or pike angler, we highly recommend these rods. In English, they make this kind of fishing more fun. The Bluegill Rod comes with a 230 grain shooting head style fly line. Perfect for small to medium sized poppers – panfish, smallmouth and medium sized largemouth The Smallmouth Rod comes with a 290 grain line. Great for medium to large poppers, streamers and whatever else you might throw for smallies, largemouth, smaller pike and smaller inshore saltwater fish. The Largemouth Rodcomes with a 330 grain line. Although marketed under the “Bass” headline, we have friends that use these rods to fish snook, tarpon, largemouth, pike, musky and anything else you can imagine. They also come with a handy travel case. All of this for under $400 makes them a bargain as well. (Reel not included) Sage explains these beauties as follows: After working with a small, tight-lipped group of serious bass anglers, we’ve developed two new rods that can drop a hair frog or an air-light diver with pinpoint accuracy and hardly a ripple on the water. From a fly fishing perspective, we’re talking about effortlessly pushing big, wind-resistant bugs into tight quarters. Available in two models, Smallmouth and Largemouth, both rods measure 7′11″, which slides them just under the strict bass tournament rules for rod length. Additionally, both rods are sold with custom bass taper flylines and a travel case for protection. $395.00
Sage 1390-3 RPLXi Fly Rod (Used) The RPLXi action is designed to load and fire line quickly to fast-moving fish. $635.00
Sage ZXL (Free Shipping) Sage Manufacturing Corp Sage ZXL Bottom line is this- The new ZXL Rods cast like butter, but somehow develop enough line speed to get the job done effortlessly. We were worried that the SLT 383-4, one of our staff’s favorite Wisconsin spring creek rods, would not have a worthy successor. We worry too much around here. The ZXL’s are a huge improvement of the previous series, and will be a pleasure to fish for years to come! The new ZXL rods are significantly lighter, stronger and easier to cast for everyone who enjoys the relaxed casting rhythm of a smooth progressive taper. Through the miracle of Sage’s G5 process, they were able to remove every gram of unnecessary material from each blank and replace traditional glass hoop fibers with lighter, more responsive graphite. On the water, they are simply dreamy. The smooth, progressive action flexes down to the grip, making incredibly delicate presentations and reminding you to kick back, relax and enjoy. All ZXL rods feature a narrower grip for increased comfort and feedback, slim-line nickel silver and rosewood reel seats, ultra-slender blanks and a deep “pomegranate” color. $675.00
