    NEW! SAGE ESN FLY REEL

    Sage ESN Fly Reels are packed with a suite of specialty features with the Euro-Nymph angler in mind and is fine tuned to the nuances of each application. Built around a super thin and large diameter arbor, this design now makes it easier to get fish on the reel quickly, minimizing the need to guide line onto the spool with your finger, all while providing consistent drag output.

    A unique balance system allows anglers to assemble and fine tune a set of weights, so the ESN reel can perfectly balance any Euro Nymphing (or standard) rod. Add in a full frame that prevents fine leaders and lines from sneaking through the frame and sealed carbon drag system that provides a smooth uptake – leaving you with the ultimate fish-catching machine.

    Adjustable Weights for Balancing: The ESN reel comes in one size, containing 3 interchangeable accessory weights (1/2oz, 1oz, and 1 1/2oz), and is appropriate for dialing in any Euro Nymphing setup on the market.

    FEATURES:
    • Full frame, fully machined 6061-T6 aerospace grade aluminum
    • Cold forged and tempered for superior strength and rigidity
    • Hard anodized for surface protection and corrosion resistance
    • Patented Sealed Carbon System SCS Drag for years of flawless performance
    • One Revolution Drag Knob with numbered and detented setting
    • Ultra-Large arbor for fast line pick-up
    • Narrower spool for small volume ESN lines
    • Concave arbor for greater strength and capacity
    • Stainless steel ½, 1, and 1 ½ oz weights to adjust ideal balance point of nymphing setup
    • Easy conversion from left- to right-hand retrieve
    • Neoprene and embroidered ballistic nylon reel case & spare weight case

    I have been fishing a mono rig and using an old regular size arbor reel and have been annoyed by all of the coiling of the mono. Bought this reel to lessen the coiling. Fished with it for 3 days and coiling was much improved. I really like the adjustable weights and how you can even rotate them clockwise or counterclockwise to further fine tune the balance of the rod. The drag is excellent. Very happy with the purchase.

    Perfect reel for the Sage ESN rod. Love the option to put light weights on the reel to balance the rod to a feel that I like.

    Nice reel, solves the problem of line escaping from the spool when using thin mono running line for Euro nymphing. In the stealth color the reel looks sharp and clean. Everything you would expect from a Sage reel. I use mine without any of the added weight on a 10 ft 3 weight rod - I want the reel as light as possible. Extra weights are easily added if you wanted a heavier reel for balancing on a longer or heavier rod.

    Man this reel hits on every sensory input. It looks beautiful. I ordered mine in Chipotle. It feels awesome to the touch. Action feels like a Swiss watch. The click is just right as well. Sage really did their homework on this one. It really is a work of art hanging off the end of my fly rod. The balancing system is totally unique. I used the 1 oz. weight rotated one position forward to perfectly balance my 10' 3 line with several feet of fly line out. Only down sides are for $425, wish it was made in America, not Korea. With the weight added, reel is on the heavy side. Full spool frame can be a little slow threading your leader compared to non-full framed reels.
