Sage Spey R8 Fly Rod

The Sage R8 Spey Fly Rod is a high-performance spey rod that is designed to be efficient, accurate, and versatile. An effective Spey cast is dependent on efficient transfers of energy in each of its three key components: the Lift, Load, and Delivery.

  • Lift - Adequate stiffness, power, and responsiveness paired with light weight ensure no efforts are wasted and fatigue is minimum when lifting long or heavy heads, sink tips and flies.
  • Load - R8 Technology maximizes the amount of energy collected in sweep or touch-and-go moves, carries it into the D-Loop, and transfers it smoothly into the rod.
  • Deliver - Responsiveness and tracking abilities of R8 Technology diminish lost energy and reduce lateral movements upon the forward stroke, increasing power and accuracy.

The R8 Spey is made with Sage's proprietary Revolution 8 graphite technology, which results in a blank with unmatched ability to capture and carry power, plus exceptional tracking. The series features a number of classic aesthetic details, such as a rich ale blank color, black and gold trim wraps, a traditional deep walnut reel seat, and cork handles.

The R8 Spey is available in four different actions, each of which is designed for a specific type of spey fishing:

  • Switch: Compact casts in tight quarters (7116-4 8116-4)
  • Lightweight Line Speed: Accurate distance with light spey lines (5126-4 6130-4)
  • Max Versatility: The spey casting multi-tool (7126-4 7130-4 7136-4 8130-4 9130-4)
  • Most Powerful: Maximum power, distance, and control (8126-4 8136-4 9140-6 10150-4)
