Description

MUTLI-APPLICATION / FAST ACTION

R8 CORE

R8 CORE is a rod family focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary material technology through our forward thinking lens of what were seeing out on the water where one rod needs to show even greater range. At its Core, R8 CORE traces a direct lineage to Sages multi application vision, one shaped by the fishing evolutions happening all around usfrom habitats we stalk and waters we frequent, to the flies we fish and the diversity of species we now target. Coming in a range from 3wt to 9wt, with a variety of lengths from 86 to 100, theres sure to be a model to fit the core needs of every freshwater angler.

SHAPING 8 REVOLUTIONS IN HOW WE FISH

R8 TECHNOLOGY

The advanced, leading-edge material behind R8 enables us to shape a rod with a stiffer, stronger backbone but a more sensitive tip and more connected feel. The secret is twofold. First, a proprietary aerospace composite with a greater hoop strength enables us to dimensionally grow taper diameter more quickly from the tipwhile a nano-sintered resin application increases axial resilience and allows us to pack more fiber into the blank, resulting in that true two-way connection from hand to fly and back for greater feel, flow and control.
