A close inspection of Sage fly rods - Graphite Fly and Spin...

[Brian K. Shaffer]

Sage fly rods have been around a long time now. Let's look at a few... talk about a bunch and have fun doing it.

They made a lot of unique rods - but nothing quite like this.

the late 1990's SPL - Center Axis

The TCR or Technical Casting Rod was a challenge for all fly fishers to understand.

The one below fishes just fine... not my favorite. Glad it's the 4wt and not anything heavier.

They had a chat room page for the Fly Anglers On Line webpage... they let me host it.

JC and Deanna were such just fun fly fishing folks.

This rod was given to me by a customer, actually by his wife to me.  He wanted me to have it.

He never could get the hang of this one... much too fast for his taste.

Thanks kindly my friend. RIP.
