Available in four sizes, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8 and 9/10, the SHIFT C covers a wide range of fly fishing applications, from delicate dry fly presentations and nymph fishing to streamer fishing and targeting larger species.

Each reel size features a specifically tuned drag configuration, offering the appropriate level of control for different fishing applications. The smooth engagement helps protect fine tippets while maintaining dependable stopping power.
The innovative One Revolution Drag Knob provides precise drag adjustment across a single rotation. With 10 numbered markings and 20 detented settings, anglers can quickly return to their preferred drag pressure. Audible clicks and tactile feedback make adjustments easy and repeatable.
The narrow, concave large-arbor spool allows fast line retrieval and efficient line management while reducing line memory. The lightweight die-cast aluminium construction offers an excellent combination of strength and low weight.
An ergonomic handle, machined anodised aluminium drag knob and convenient snap-fit spool system complete the practical design.

Rudi Heger GmbHSage 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.
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.
Sage develops fly rods for specific applications. Each series focuses on a defined use on the water:
This clear focus improves performance in each situation and gives you better control over your cast and drift.
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.
Sage fly rods deliver performance you can rely on. They support accurate casting, controlled drifts, and secure hook sets in all fishing conditions.
Picked by line class and use, and by what other fly anglers buy with it.
