New Sage ONE Tested!

Andrew found some time to get out for a fish on Monday and test the new Sage ONE 6 weight. Here is what he has to say - We caught several fish polaroiding around the lake edges with stick caddis and damsel nymphs and later in the day stripping bigger flies. I found the new rods to perform exceptionally well in a whole range of different situations. Earlier in the day it was all close in presentation work and this is probably where these rods excell most. The accuracy at which a fly can be delivered from 10 to 30 feet is incredible. Later in the day we were having some trouble finding fish and so I put on one of the Airflo 40+ integrated shooting head lines to strip in some larger wets. The rod handled the extra weight no problem, and it made covering large amounts of water just effortless. The wind picked up and the Sage ONE did everything it was supposed to. Put simply, these rods are everything they're cracked up to be. If you're looking for a new fly rod then these are certainly worth a demo cast. Up until now, I have truely believed the Orvis Helios is the best fly rod available with no other contender. Well Sage have certainly produced a contender with their new premium offering. My advice is try the Orvis Helios and try the Sage One. While there isn't just one fly rod that will suit all casters - between these two great rod series you'll find a fishing tool that will truely add to your enjoyment on the water. Buying a new fly rod is difficult but The Flyfisher will do everything they can to help you make the right decision...
