Sage R8 Core

R8 Core is a rod family focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary material technology through Sage's forward thinking lens of what they're seeing out on the water where one rod needs to show even greater range. At its Core, R8 CORE traces a direct lineage to Sage's multi application vision, one shaped by the fishing evolutions happening all around us—from habitats we stalk and waters we frequent, to the flies we fish and the diversity of species we now target.

The Sage X Fly Rod

KonneticHD Technology is the next era in performance graphite rods. By optimizing their graphite-to-resin ratio, Sage has created a higher density (HD) fiber composite, resulting in lighter, stronger blanks which deliver unmatched recovery, energy transfer, and line/loop control. Building upon proprietary construction techniques developed for Konnetic Technology, KonneticHD gives Sage an elevated platform to achieve new levels in rod design. (More Info)

New proprietary graphite/resin composite developed through exclusive partnerships.

Advanced high density (HD) fiber positioning, enhanced laminate characteristics, and optimized manufacturing techniques increase composite modulus while maintaining durability.

KonneticHD creates amplified strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios as needed within the rod blank.

Optimized fiber-to-fiber energy transfer along the length of the blank minimizes both lateral and medial vibrations, delivering accuracy in an easy loading blank with quick recovery, a crisp tip stop, and enhanced line feel for complete loop control.

The highest energy transferring material Sage has ever created.
