SAGE R8 Classic

$950.00

Sage R8 Classic Fly Rods

All models come with an extra built tip

MODERN MATERIALS IN A MODERATE ACTION
A key characteristic of our proprietary Revolution 8 graphite material is that it naturally likes to bend – unusual in most high-modulus rods. With the CLASSIC R8, we’ve fully leaned into this characteristic and applied R8 Technology to a deep loading Moderate action, resulting in rod blanks that are astoundingly lightweight and soulful – perfect for fishing at calculated, measured tempos. Due to the fiber purity and resin applications of Revolution 8 graphite, CLASSIC R8 rods retain fast recovery speeds and incredible overall strength while offering an instinctive in-hand feel. This blend of a deep load and fast recovery results in a rod that maximizes smooth energy transfer and overall feel while achieving unprecedented line speed, control, and accuracy. Thanks to R8 materials, the CLASSIC R8 has revolutionized performance at a Moderate action.

Upon order, I will present you with build options such as:
Grip > Default is the slim snub nose FW , like factory
Hardware finish > Bright or Dark Nickel or Black
Reel seat > Up or down locking (Up-locking default)
Reel seat insert > I maintain over a hundred handpicked reel seats for you to choose from (or I can select for you)

Rod comes with a Sage tube and sock and as a Sage dealer – I stand behind all of my work – blank is fully warranted by Sage and I never charge for repair – just shipping.
