SAGE IGNITER 890-4-SALT FLY ROD : 8WT 9'0"
Sage Igniter Fly Rods are ultra-fast action rods featuring cutting edge KonneticHD Technology to deliver maximum power, throw the tightest of loops, shred the wind, and reach extreme distances not possible with other fly rods. Igniter fly rods are engineered to excel in the most technical of situations such as strong headwinds, bulky flies, heavy sink tips, big streamers, or fishing at extreme distance. Igniter rods are not designed for the average angler. These rods are specifically designed for seasoned anglers with proficient casting skills seeking the highest performance, ultra-fast action saltwater rod on the market. For those anglers, the Sage Igniter will perform at a level that is simply not possible with any other rod.
The Sage Igniter 890-4 Fly Rod is the ultimate weapon for targeting bonefish and permit on saltwater flats. This Igniter 890-4 will throw the tightest of loops, extreme distances, into the wind, and still make a perfect presentation so wary bonefish won't spook. This Igniter 8wt will reach feeding fish that were previously out of range, and efficiently cover more water than ever before. The ultra-crisp action also makes this an exceptional rod for freshwater largemouth bass, launching bulky streamers, chasing redfish in the backcountry, and as a general purpose saltwater fly rod. The Igniter 8wt will effortlessly handle any size flies and a wide variety of fly lines. Tipping the scales at under 4 ounces, this rod is an ultra-light powerhouse that delivers deadly accuracy in the most demanding situations.
The new KonneticHD Technology developed by Sage is a significant breakthrough in high performance graphite rods and uses a new proprietary graphite/resin composite developed through exclusive partnerships with scientific companies. Advanced High Density (HD) fiber positioning enhanced laminate characteristics, and optimized manufacturing techniques increase composite modulus while maintaining durability. KonneticHD creates amplified strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios that have never been achieved before. Optimized fiber-to-fiber energy transfer along the length of the blank minimizes both lateral and medial vibrations, delivering accuracy in an easy loading blank, with quick recovery, a crisp tip stop, and enhanced line feel for complete loop control. This is the highest energy transferring material Sage has ever created, opening the door for Sage's R&D team to experiment with construction techniques, taper designs, and action profiles.
