Description
The SAGE R8 Core fly rods are focused on maximum versatility and apply a new revolutionary material technology through their forward-thinking lens of what we are all seeing out on the water, where one rod needs to show even greater range. At it’s 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 the species we now target.
For most of us, an idyllic day on the water is not when we’re thinking more, but when we’re thinking less. Finding that state of fishing in the moment, where instinct and experience bring us to an almost zen-like awareness of each suble motion and movement- that’s what R8 Core is all about. It’s not a race or a competition, but a state we all aim to reach out on the water. With R8 Core, they have enhanced that two-way connection from hand to fly and back for greater feel, flow and control. This amplified two-way feedback loop, due to their 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.
