Sage Sonic Two-Handed Switch/Spey Rod
Now you can enjoy the numerous benefits of Konnetic Technology in both of your hands with the Sonic two-handed series. During a long day of fly fishing its lighter weight and decidedly thinner profile will prove welcome assets, reducing casting fatigue and minimizing wind resistance for tireless casts. Thanks to the shaft’s significantly enhanced torsional stability, the rod recovers quickly as it moves through the cast, optimizing load carry and line speed for long, smooth, flawless casts every time. With power to lift heavy tips out of the water and the precision to place the perfect touch-and-go anchor, the SONIC Spey and Switch rods are great multi-discipline tools that cover most any swinging scenario.
