Sage Power R8 Fly Rod
Go Further. Cast Faster. Reach the Unreachable.
Born from humankind’s instinct to explore, the Sage POWER R8 Fly Rod is built for anglers who refuse to accept limits. Where do rivers lead? How far can oceans carry us? And how fast can a fly rod truly go—without sacrificing control? POWER R8 exists to answer those questions.
Designed to make ultra-fast feel finesse-able, POWER R8 is engineered to cruise at extreme line speeds while maintaining precision, stability, and authority. This is a rod built for into-the-backing-knot shots, heavy shooting heads, dense sinking lines, and demanding casting scenarios where lesser rods fall apart. With R8-exclusive reserve power, POWER R8 delivers the lifting strength needed to manage heavy rigs and oversized flies—without losing composure.
As the newest evolution of the R8 family, POWER R8 expands the platform’s legendary versatility with a surge of velocity and control. Its ultrafast action introduces an entirely new gear, taking over where moderate, fast, and even many saltwater-specific fly rods reach their ceiling. When distance, wind, and technical conditions stack the odds against you, POWER R8 pushes back harder.
This is your key to chasing what others call unreachable—longer casts, tighter loops, more authority at distance, and absolute confidence when conditions demand everything you’ve got.
