Product Description
The new R8 Classic is for those choosing to slow down their approach to the water. These new rods inspire this measured pace while fishing, allowing anglers to take in the surroundings and find the moments they seek. Then, when the opportunity arises, the angler is prepared and the rod performs, translating angling intention and delivering the right cast at the right time.
A key characteristic of the proprietary Revolution 8 graphite material is that it naturally likes to bend - unusual in most high-modulus rods. Sage fully leaned into this characteristic and applied R8 Technology to a deep loading moderate action, resulting in rod blanks that are astoundingly lightweight and soulful - perfect for fishing at calculated, measured tempos. Due to the fiber purity and resin applications of Revolution 8 graphite, CLASSIC R8 rods retain fast recovery speeds and incredible overall strength while offering an instinctive in-hand feel. This blend of a deep load and fast recovery results in a rod that maximizes smooth energy transfer and overall feel while achieving unprecedented line speed, control, and accuracy.
