Sage Salt Fly Rods Salt R8 990-4

Most salt rods are built for pure power and ultimate strength-that is table stakes for the venue and the discipline. With Sage’s new R8 graphite, adding 25% more strength-per-weight was the easy part-a simple function of material advancement-but one that also increased the fight in the rod even down to their six-weight. They’ve increased the pure pulling power without the need to add more material, fillers or reinforcement. The outcome is simple, providing the ability for faster landing times – reducing fish fatigue and catch-and release stress on ever so delicate ecosystems.
