Sage Payload Fly Rod — Big Fish. Big Fly. Maximum Delivery.
Big fish, big fly. While not always the case this rule rings true for many warmwater and saltwater fisheries where anglers are casting larger flies than ever before. With a powerful but comfortable casting action the Sage Payload series is designed to help anglers cast heavy lines and big flies more effectively than ever. Whether launching a double articulated streamer to the far bank or dredging deep water with heavy sink tips and oversized flies anglers will notice immediately how easy it is to hurl a heavy line and big fly with the Payload.
Built with Konnetic Technology the Payload delivers a powerful fast action blank that loads efficiently with heavy lines and large flies while maintaining the smooth feel and tracking qualities that Sage is known for. The oversized chromed snake guides and tangle free Fuji ceramic stripper guides ensure smooth consistent line flow even with the heaviest shooting heads and running lines. The heavy duty aluminum uplocking reel seat and super plus full wells cork handle with cork composite fighting butt provide the power and control needed for long days of throwing big flies to big fish.
From chasing monster Brown trout on western rivers with double articulated streamers to targeting Stripers, Largemouth Bass, Pike, Musky, and saltwater species with oversized flies the Payload delivers the backbone and comfort to make big fly fishing more accessible and more fun than ever before. The rich Tannin blank with Burgundy primary thread wraps and Bronze trim wraps gives the Payload a bold and distinctive look that stands out in any rod lineup. Every Sage Payload is packaged in a black ballistic rod tube with embroidered Sage logo. Handcrafted in the USA.
