Sage Trout Spey Announced

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]Here’s the official announcement from Sage on the Trout Spey rods we hinted at in our Montana Spey video.[/vc_column_text][us_separator show_line=”1″ line_width=”default”][vc_column_text]

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND, WASH. (June 11, 2015) – Sage builds on its successful ONE family of fly rods with the addition of the LITTLE ONE and the ONE Trout Spey. Both new rod families utilize Konnetic Technology®, Sage’s exclusive rod technology that allows for slimmer blank profiles with maximized strength and energy transfer without sacrificing line speed, responsiveness, and accuracy.

“Anglers looking for ultra-light rods and rods made specifically for chasing trout with a Spey rod, now have the just that in the world-class design of the ONE rod family,” says Sage chief rod designer, Jerry Siem.

The LITTLE ONE couples the light blank with an ultra-light, custom anodized, up-locking reel seat and compact snub-nose, half-wells cork handle. This attention to detail offers anglers an ultra-light feel and ultra-light action from tip to butt. This family will retail for $850 and will be available in August 2015.

The ONE Trout Spey rods are designed specifically for two-handed casting and swinging flies for trout. These ultra-light Spey rods are delicate enough to protect small flies on light tippets yet are powerful enough to cast modestly weighted streamers on light sink tips. The Super Plus cork mini-Spey fore and rear grip complete these two models. These ONE models will retail for $1050 and will be available August 2015.

AVAILABLE IN AUGUST

We’re super excited to get the new Sage ONE Troutspey in the shop, and we will certainly be sweeping through the river with it this fall. We will also be attending the Fly Tackle Dealer Show in July and will have the scoop – as well as some hands on experience – with the other new models from Sage.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

  1. Are you guys going to like Sage products as much when they start selling direct to consumers? Sage and Rio were built by independent fly shops like yours—Personally won’t buy another thing from these greedy bastards-just sayin’—–

    • You can buy Simms, Patagonia, and Orvis Waders direct. If you practice what you preach, then you won’t be wearing any of these. Or do the best alternative, buy these brands from your local fly shop and we’ll all be happy-just sayin’
