Sage R8 Core 7100-4 Fly Rod
SAGE R8 CORE 7100-4 FLY ROD : 7WT, 10'0"
The Sage R8 Core 7wt 10'0" Fly Rod is the perfect steelhead fly rod. The 10'0" length will give you the best control and distance on mends and roll casting, while also allowing you to high stick very fast waters. If you are on the west or east coast and chasing chrome, this should be in the quiver. The extra length helps to mend line and create a more natural drift for your flies to deceive smart trout.
R8 CORE is focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary material technology through our forward-thinking lens of what we’re seeing out on the water, where one rod needs to show even greater range. At its 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 species we now target.
The R8 Core features a new pattern of woven carbon fiber that allowed Sage to impart more of their proprietary resin into the blank. The result of this new pattern means that the rod is stronger farther up the blank than competitors. The combination of the new carbon fiber pattern and more resin makes the rod incredibly light in hand while not sacrificing any strength in the top 1/3rd of the rod. The new Revolution 8 Technology makes the R8 one of the most technologically advanced rods on the market. The R8 is finished with a dark olive blank, grey primary guide wraps with a handsome gradient grey-to-white tipping.
