For the first time in decades, Sage introduces a completely redesigned graphite technology in the Sage R8 Core Fly Rod. Expect nothing less than complete control and multi-application versatility from the flagship model in the Sage fly-rod lineup. Rod makers focused on rhythm and feel rather than the one-sided pursuit of extreme distance and brute power now so commonplace in the market.
