A trout specific, moderate action rod designed for fishing slow and feeling more.
Sage’s proprietary Revolution 8 graphite material naturally likes to bend - unusual in most high-modulus rods. With the CLASSIC R8, they’ve fully leaned into this characteristic and applied R8 Technology to a deep loading moderate action, resulting in rod blanks that are astoundingly lightweight and soulful - perfect for fishing at calculated, measured tempos.
Due to the fibre purity and resin applications of R8 graphite, CLASSIC R8 rods retain fast recovery speeds and incredible overall strength while offering an instinctive in-hand feel.
