SAGE R8 CORE 6101-4 FLY ROD : 6WT, 10'0"
The Sage R8 Core Fly Rod 6wt 10'0" is the perfect high sticking, Czech, or nymphing rod for the larger western style river. The 10'0" is perfect for the angler that is going to be using nymph fishing techniques majority of the time. This rod features a strong mid-section for lift a sensitive tip to detect subtle strikes. These rods can be fished on larger rivers as they have more backbone in the butt section to land 20" trout or bass. This rod has the fighting butt handle for added leverage.
R8 CORE is focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary material technology through our forward-thinking lens of what we’re 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.
The R8 Core features a new pattern of woven carbon fiber that allowed Sage to impart more of their proprietary resin into the blank. The result of this new pattern means that the rod is stronger farther up the blank than competitors. The combination of the new carbon fiber pattern and more resin makes the rod incredibly light in hand while not sacrificing any strength in the top 1/3rd of the rod. The new Revolution 8 Technology makes the R8 one of the most technologically advanced rods on the market. The R8 is finished with a dark olive blank, grey primary guide wraps with a handsome gradient grey-to-white tipping.

10' 6wt is ideal for my kick boat still water fishing. Gives me that extra bit of "reach" that I need to stay back on those large trout feeding the shallow water.
