The three years Sage spent developing G5 Technology clearly demonstrated that the key to better casting is the ability to feel the rod load. So when Sage designed the Launch Series rods, they applied what they learned to create a smooth, progressive power curve and an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio. Loosely translated, that means Launch Series rods provide an exceptional level of line connection or feel, allowing anglers of all abilities to cast better and more easily. And because they re Sage rods, every Launch Series rod is hand built on Bainbridge Island with wood reel seat inserts, chrome-plated snake guides and high-grade Portuguese cork grips.

The VT2 Series rods are medium fast action 4-piece rods that have been designed for maximum versatility, smooth performance and great value. Throughout the entire line, Sage has created a taper and action that best fit each specific line weight. Which is to say, the 3-weights give you exactly what you want in a 3-weight, with a smooth, progressive taper for delicate presentations. On the other hand, the larger line weights have a faster, more powerful action for heavier-duty applications. What every VT2 rod shares is a light, sensitive feel and an incredibly smooth power curve for faster line speed and easier casting. They also share a gorgeous blue ribbon blue finish, an anodized aluminum reel seat and British-made, hard chrome-plated guides. Freshwater weights feature an ebony wood reel seat insert, while the saltwater weight reel seats are fully anodized aluminum. In keeping with the versatility theme, VT2 rods come in a number of unique lengths to best fit your specific angling applications. For example, for small stream specialists, there s a 7 9 version of the 3- and 4-weights, and big water enthusiasts or float tubers will appreciate the 9 6 lengths available in 5- through 8-weights. And because 6-weights are seeing increased use in saltwater, Sage is offering them with either freshwater- or saltwater-style grips and reel seats. So whether you re looking for a rod that covers a wide variety of angling situations or one that matches a single, specific fishery, we believe you ll find a VT2 that meets your needs. After all, it s the most versatile line of rods Sage has ever created. Available in line weights 3 through 10.

Big water. Serious wind. Powerful fish. There is no more challenging environment for a fly rod than saltwater-whether it's stalking skittish bonefish on the flats, throwing lead-eye Clousers at busting albacore, or the back-breaking tug-of-war with a sounding billfish. That's why every rod in our Xi2 series is specifically designed for the task at hand. Sages' exclusive enhanced action taper makes it easy to fire a cast into the teeth of a howling Nor'easter, and slug it out in the trenches with the big boys. At the same time, even the most powerful Xi2 feels light and properly balanced in your hand to reduce fatigue. Oversized tip-tops and guides handle knots and heavy lines, while Sages' custom fighting butts provide extra comfort and leverage. And because getting there is always an issue, we've designed a series of remarkable four-piece rods that give you the famous Sage action without the typical travel hassles. In short, the Xi2 series rods are the easiest casting, highest performance saltwater fly rods in the world.

Ultra High-Performance TCR Series. The fly rod as pure concept. That's the thinking behind Sage's Technical Casting Rods (TCR). It all started as a design exercise to find out just how far we could push the boundaries of fast-action tapers and high line speed, while maintaining a rod's all-important fishability. The result of this R & D was a series of prototypes that became so popular, Sage felt compelled to offer them to their customers. To be clear, these rods are not for the casual angler. The TCR Series is designed for skilled casters facing the most demanding conditions long shots at spooky bones, waking dries into distant steelhead lies, or punching hoppers into the wind on big Western trout rivers. Basically, any situation where technical precision, distance and the ability to cut through wind are at a premium, the TCR will give you the advantage you need. The TCR Series features hand-shaped grips, made only from individually selected Flor grade, premium-quality cork rings, distinctive "chili pepper" blanks, and the finest components available. To maximize performance, we've also designed a new fly line specifically for the TCR, called the TCR Performance Taper.
