Sage R8 Core Details:
With R8 CORE the design team at Sage enhance that two-way connection from hand to fly and back for greater feel, flow and control. This Amplified Two-Way Feedback Loop, due to Sage's new axial fiber formulation, allows you to feel when the power needs to be applied throughout the cast, presentation, and when applying the appropriate pressure to fish - ultimately giving you the angler Complete Control.
R8 CORE is focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary material technology through our forward-thinking lens of what we've seeing out on the water, where one rod needs to show even greater range. At its core, R8 CORE traces a direct lineage to Sage's multi-application vision, one shaped by the fishing evolutions happening all around us - from habitats we stalk and waters we frequent, to the flies we fish and the diversity of species we now target.
390-4 is the tool of choice for delicate presentations of small flies to average-sized trout on light tippets. The length gives good casting distance and line control.
490-4 offers great line control without compromising accuracy. Best for dry flies and smaller nymphs.
590-4 handles trout flies of nearly any size, lines of varying densities and does so with superb feel, accuracy, and line control.
690-4 is a very powerful trout rod, able to cast large, heavy and wind-resistant flies long distances or into heavy winds. Great for big river trout fishing and smallmouth bass.
790-4 is equally at home fishing streamers from a drift boat, bass fishing, or fishing for trophy trout and salmon in Alaska.
890-4 is able to effectively present flies and handle the fight with Alaska trout and salmon, striped bass, largemouth bass or other similarly-sized species.
990-4 handles a permit crab at distance or a or a hooked salmon with ease. This might be one of the most versatile sizes in the lineup - from inshore flats species to salmon/pike/redfish and beyond.
