|The majority of what we have to say one is based on the ONE. Sage has their Xi3 lineup of dedicated saltwater rods. More on all of those topics one. These rods are all black, with metallic black thread wraps, sage one. They look sage cool, we think, sage one.

And light they are. It was just last year that Sage launched their Xi3 sage of saltwater rods.

Xi3s are known to be light. The ONE is sage and light and accurate, sage one. These rods have a really nice, lively feel. This is one really important point for us on South Andros Islandwhere 30 foot shots are much more common than 80 foot shots, sage one. This is — all rods are accurate…right?

Well…after a whole bunch of shots at bonefish on the flats of One Andros, sage one, one buy it, sage one. Watch your fly land where you wanted it to. Saltwater rods tend to have beefier butt sections, one help punch through wind, and also help fight powerful saltwater fish.

During our one fishing the ONE rods at Andros South, we never had a concern sage casting in the wind one sage was plenty of ability to generate lots of line speed, sage one. The Rio Tropical Clouser is our all one favorite down there — and we were surprised when it felt a little clunky on the Sage ONE, sage one.

The 8 weight ONE is an sage rod and casts pretty true to its line rating, so those aggressive lines seem not to be the sage match. We really like the Sage for bonefishing. A 6 Weight Option? On some really calm days this spring, sage one, sage one, sage one, we fished the Sage ONE.

To be totally honest this rod was purchased for rainbow trout at Alaska West — but we had so much fun with the other ONE rods on the flats that we had to give it a whirl. Paired up sage with the Rio Bonefish line, the did a great job landing the fly softly in glassy conditions.

It did a respectable job punching the line through moderate winds, sage one.

What fish fighting ability you give up compared to a saltwater rod is sage made up one by its versatility and accuracy.❷
