At Sage, every piece of angling equipment is designed, tested and hand built with one goal in mind: Maximum fishability. It's a term to describe the kind of performance that helps you cast better, fish more effectively and have more fun. In short, every Sage rod is specifically designed to help you make the most of your precious time on the water.

 

 

Sage Z-Axis Fly Rods

We went back to the drawing board to create the incredible new Z-Axis Series Fast Action Rods. By improving the entire rod-building process, we created a rod that's significantly lighter, stronger and easier to cast for anglers of all skill levels. The Z-Axis offers an entirely new level of fishability with unprecedented line feel, response and performance. But don't take our word for it-visit a local fly shop and take it for a test spin.

Sage TXL 3-piece Fly Rods

Combine near weightlessness with a groundbreaking level of performance, and the result is our TXL Series rods. Through our exclusive Generation 5 Technology, we've built an amazingly light fly rod, while increasing strength, smoothness and sensitivity to "line feel." In angling terms, that means you'll cast better, fish more effectively and enjoy yourself more. We're especially proud to offer the TXL in the revolutionary 00, or "double-ought" line weight.

Sage TCR 4-piece Fly Rods

We created the Technical Casting Rod (TCR) Series rods to push the boundaries of fast-action tapers and high line speed, while maintaining the all-important fishability. To be clear, these rods are not for the casual angler. The TCR Series is designed for skilled casters facing the most demanding conditions - where technical precision, distance and the ability to cut through wind are at a premium. Try a TCR - we think you'll be amazed.

Sage ZXL Fly Rods

The new ZXL rods are significantly lighter, stronger and easier to cast for everyone who enjoys the relaxed casting rhythm of a smooth progressive taper. Through the miracle of our G5 process, we were able to remove every gram of unnecessary material from each blank and replace traditional glass hoop fibers with lighter, more responsive graphite.

Sage Xi2 4-piece Fly Rods

No matter which saltwater challenges you face-from bonefish to billfish-Xi2 Series rods let you concentrate on the fish instead of your casting. Built with our innovative Generation 5 (G5) Technology, Xi2 rods feel lighter and livelier than other saltwater rods. The Modulus Positioning System (MPS) that we developed for these rods provides a startling level of "line feel" throughout the casting stroke. This enhanced ability to feel the rod load allows you to apply power more efficiently.

Sage BASS Fly Rods - Please call the shop (800) 637-6912

After working with a small, tight-lipped group of serious bass anglers, we’ve developed two new rods that can drop a hair frog or an air-light diver with pinpoint accuracy and hardly a ripple on the water. From a fly fishing perspective, we’re talking about effortlessly pushing big, wind-resistant bugs into tight quarters. Available in two models, Smallmouth and Largemouth, both rods measure 7'11", which slides them just under the strict bass tournament rules for rod length. Additionally, both rods are sold with custom bass taper flylines and a travel case for protection.
When used outside the bass fishing world, we strongly recommend them for probing the mangroves or throwing huge flies for pike and muskies.

Sage Two-Handed Fly Rods - Please call the shop (800) 637-6912

As a company with deep roots in the Pacific Northwest, we’ve been at the forefront of the two-handed revolution since the beginning. And with interest in two-handed rods to growing steadily in fisheries around the world, we’re proud to offer a wide selection of innovative two-handed fly rods.
Sage has traditionally listed these specialized rods as their own series within our line, but in an effort to make it easier for our customers to understand the characteristics of these rods and their actions, we have, over time, begun to include these rods within other line in the Sage family.
Currently, we have two-handed rods available in the following lines: Z-Axis, TCR, VT2 and FLi.

 

Sage VT2 Fly Rods

Our VT2 Series rods are designed for maximum versatility, smooth performance and great value. Throughout the entire line, we've created a taper and action that best fits each specific line weight. VT2 Series rods provide a light, sensitive feel and an incredibly smooth power curve for faster line speed and easier casting. They also feature a gorgeous "blue ribbon" blue finish, titanium anodized aluminum reel seat hardware and British-made, hard chrome-plated guides.
