Sage Trout LL fly rods feature a delicate touch and smooth, medium-action, designed with the trout angler and flawless dry fly presentations in mind. The Trout LL 5wt 8'6" is the ultimate dry fly rod for the larger rivers where trout are measured in pounds. The 8'6" has long been desired by dry fly and wet fly anglers for decades. The Trout LL will present the fly with superior accuracy and crisp feel for all day enjoyment.
Through blank taper optimization and specialized length offerings, the Trout LL is perfected for wade fishing, closer casts, small flies, and light tippets. A relatively supple tip maximizes light tippet protection and gives way to a smooth easy-loading mid-section that increases feel and feedback throughout the casting stroke. When the hatch is on, the Trout LL is an angler’s best friend. Drawing inspiration from historic Sage rods of the past, the Trout LL is a nod toward tradition with a classic appearance and a smooth casting taper, yet adds modern performance features in accuracy and loop control through the backbone of Konnetic HD blank material.
The Trout LL series is available in a combination of classic dry fly line weights and lengths 7’9” though 9’0” while beautiful wood inserts and premium componentry add an elegant touch to these high performance rods
