Product information "Dart Fly Rod"
SAGE DART Fliegenrute
Der perfekte Begleiter für die Fischerei an kleinen Gewässern - MADE IN USA

The small water DART features a short-range fast action for chasing wary trout in still and clear water, close quarters, or obstacle-ridden streamsides. Specifically designed to drive precise loops under the branches of a willow while still providing delicate presentations and delightful feedback to the angler. The KonneticHD materials combined with performance-friendly fast action gives fishermen the ultimate competitive advantage against highly selective trout. The 0-4wt models at 7'6" provide the backbone of this family with ultra-light performance, while the shorter model in a 3wt provides a specialty tool to the angler looking for accuracy in extremely confined areas. The lightest, most precise casting small water rod ever made, the DART is destined to become a cherished tool in the trout fisherman’s quiver for years to come.

Konnetic HD - absolute Schlaufenkontrolle

KonneticHD bedeutet eine neue Generation in Sachen Hochleistungs-Kohlefaser-Fliegenruten. Die Forschungs- und Entwicklungsabteilung von SAGE hat hart an dem optimalen Kohlefaser-Harz-Verhältnis gearbeitet. Das Ergebnis ist eine höhere Faserdichte (higher density = HD) im Rohmaterial, woraus kraftvollere und weiter verbesserte Rutenrohlinge entstehen. Diese Ruten sind unerreicht in Sachen Rückstellkraft, Energietransfer und einer unglaublichen Schnur- und Schlaufenkontrolle. Alle KonneticHD Ruten werden mit eigens entwickelten Konstruktionstechniken in den USA aufgebaut. Durch diese innovativen Technologien werden neue Maßstäbe im modernen Rutendesign gesetzt.

Sage Fly Rods & Reels – Performance Without Compromise
Sage fly rods represent precision, control, and consistent performance. Anglers choose Sage when accuracy, power, and reliability matter on the water. Each rod reflects decades of experience in fly fishing and rod building. Sage produces all fly rods in the USA.
Skilled rod builders assemble every blank, align components, and test each rod before it leaves the workshop. This process ensures consistent quality and a clean finish across all models.
Advanced Materials and Fast Recovery
Modern Sage fly rods use high-performance graphite to deliver fast recovery speed and stable tracking. The rod loads efficiently and transfers energy directly into the line. This leads to tighter loops, higher line speed, and better accuracy.
Fast action models handle wind, large flies, and long casting distances. Medium action rods support controlled presentations at short and medium range. This range of actions allows you to choose the right tool for your fishing style.
Designed for Real Fishing Situations
Sage develops fly rods for specific applications. Each series focuses on a defined use on the water:
- Dry fly fishing with delicate presentation
- Nymph fishing with direct contact and sensitivity
- Streamer fishing with power and control '
- Saltwater fishing with strength and corrosion-resistant components
- Two-handed casting for salmon and steelhead
This clear focus improves performance in each situation and gives you better control over your cast and drift.
Consistent Performance on Every Cast
Sage rods feel light in hand and remain stable during the cast. The blank tracks straight and recovers quickly. This helps you place the fly exactly where you want it. Even under pressure from strong fish, the rod maintains control and protects the leader.
High-quality components support long-term use. Durable guides, solid reel seats, and clean cork grips ensure reliable performance over many seasons.
Why Anglers Choose Sage Fly Rods
- Built in the USA with strict quality control
- High-performance graphite construction
- Fast recovery for precise casting
- Models for trout, predator, and saltwater fishing
- Reliable components for long service life
Sage fly rods deliver performance you can rely on. They support accurate casting, controlled drifts, and secure hook sets in all fishing conditions.

990-4 SALT R8 Special Edition Fly Rod
MORE FIGHT, MORE TOUCH - The 990-4 SALT R8 as a limited "Rod of the Year 2023" Edition. Most salt rods are built for pure power and ultimate strength—that is table stakes for the venue and the discipline. With SAGEs new R8 graphite, adding 25% more strength-per-weight was the easy part—a simple function of material advancement—but one that also increased the fight in the rod even down to our six-weight. SAGE increased the pure pulling power without the need to add more material, fillers or reinforcement. The outcome is simple, providing the ability for faster landing times and reducing fish stress and catch-and-release pressure on ever so delicate ecosystems. More strength and fight were an obvious upgrade, yet few salt rods, especially in the heavier weights, achieve the importance of feel for fine touch shots and precise presentations. Shaping a taper that brought this increased touch into the equation took more time. Yet after a long residence in the birthplace of saltwater fly fishing, and working directly with the experienced guides there, our rod designers found the right profile and fiber alignment that delivered strength, fine touch presentation, and a more intuitive sweet spot to a class of rods that have long had a reputation as unwieldy, unforgiving and difficult. With the SALT R8, gone are the days of sacrificing the feel and touch in your saltwater rod. Whether maximizing your limited shots for Tarpon or blocking the right moon cycle for a Permit trip—or just delivering a quick, confident cast through wind at distance—saltwater is a game where patience and urgency are equally critical to maximizing opportunity. Whether on idyllic flats, coastal beaches or backcountry mangroves, you need faith—in your cast, your reaction time and your choice of rod. While saltwater locales often move slower, the fishing is faster, the pressure more intense and the variables more variable. From wind, weather and tides to spooky fish, seasonal migrations and salty guides, it’s a different game with a different set of rules in venues that range from tournaments and Grand Slam flats to legendary bonefish lodges and hushed redfish beaches. The shots are fewer, the stakes are higher and seconds matter in sight fishing. By the third false cast, your time—at least for that fish—has passed. But more than just delivering a fly on demand, saltwater sight fisheries necessitate a different tool than what works for your standard trout stream. A rod that loads quickly and predictably, a sweet spot more intuitive to feel. More strength to land fish quicker and more touch for precision short shots. A more durable rod that is built to survive both long skiff runs and remote destinations - where broken rods are absolutely heartbreaking. A precisely honed taper that will ensure your fly is presented in the right place at the right time. For Sage, having Revolution 8 technology in hand meant now was the time to shape a dramatic advancement in saltwater rods that spoke to these truths right from the heart and birthplace of the discipline. Welcome to the SALT R8 — More Fight, More Touch. Features: Revolution 8 Technology Tempest Blue blank color Slate primary thread wraps with graduated White and Grey trim Titanium Fuji K-Guide ceramic stripper guides with oversized hard chromed snake guides and tip-top Laser etched line weight on slide band Black rod bag with new quick-tie cord lock for faster, easier, and cleaner storage Aluminum rod tube with Sage medallion Premium Flor grade full-wells cork handle with EVA fighting butt Heavy-Duty anodized aluminum up-locking reel seat with Integrated hidden hook keeper in reel seat Technical Details: Line size: 9 Length: 9'0" (275 cm) Handle: Full-Wells wth Eva Fighting Butt Parts: 4-geteilte Fliegenrute Tube-Length: 77 cm Weight: 115 g Special Edition with "Rod of the Year 2023" printed on the blank Through the following Link you'll find all other SAGE R8 Saltwater Fly Rods: SALT R8 series
