Sage Payload

Description

With a powerful but comfortable casting action, the new Sage Payload series of rods are designed to help anglers cast heavy lines and big flies more effectively. Whether launching a double-articulated streamer to the far bank or dredging the Sacramento Delta, anglers will notice how easy it is to cast heavy sinking lines and big streamers with the Sage Payload.

Featuring a fast action for casting large flies and very powerful tip to help pick up heavy sinking lines off the water, the Sage Payload is tuned for the extreme. These rods have powerful mid sections then transition to a more forgiving butt that allows for a slower and more relaxed casting stroke that reduces fatigue. This softer butt section also allows for more leverage while fighting fish, making it easier to gain ground on hard fighting species. The slightly shorter lengths offer a more effortless cast through a shorter lever and is better for landing fish out of a boat over a traditional 9’0” rod.
