Their products are built with the goal of maximum fishability in mind and are hand crafted to perfection. In addition to Sage fly rods and reels, they also make fly rod blanks for anglers who want to make their own rods, fly lines, as well as rod, reel and wader cases. Although it’s a little difficult to find on their site, they even make a spinning rod, “for when conditions make it physically impossible to fly fish.”

These aren’t the $99 specials from Wal-Mart or Big 5. Sage’s rods come in nine different series and a variety of lengths and weights for all fishing conditions. The rods are broken down into three series.
