SAGE R8 Core Fly Rod Front Range Olive – Your Premium Fishing Gear Store Rods Lines Baits Accessories* Sale

LIMITED EDITION / FRONT RANGE OLIVE

The all-new limited edition Front Range Olive colorway, available in a select few models, is inspired by the natural tones of one of North Americas keystone fly fishing venues – Colorados Front Range. The blank color brings to mind the earthen landscape of the high desert, canyons, and cobble found throughout the Front Ranges iconic lakes and streams. Olive thread wraps remind us of the evergreen pines, junipers, and firs adorning the Rocky Mountain hillsides. Finished with a contrasting Myrtle wood reel seat and Stealth Black anodized aluminum hardware, the new Front Range Olive R8 CORE is right at home in the heart of western trout country.

R8 CORE is focused on maximum versatility and applies new revolutionary R8 material technology through our forwardthinking lens of what we’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 / fast action vision, one shaped by the fishing evolutions happening all around usfrom habitats we stalk and waters we frequent, to the flies we fish and the diversity of species we now target.

The advanced, leading-edge material behind R8 enables us to shape a rod with a stiffer, stronger backbone but a more sensitive tip and more connected feel. The secret is twofold. First, a proprietary aerospace composite with a greater hoop strength enables us to dimensionally grow taper diameter more quickly from the tipwhile a nano-sintered resin application increases axial resilience and allows us to pack more fiber into the blank, resulting in that true two-way connection from hand to fly and back for greater feel, flow and control.
