the only weakness I have found is the size of the reel seat. too large for my taste

Summary:
Great rod for the intermediate to experenced flyfisher. It's my prefered rod. In my opinion not for the beginner bluewater flyfisher. Has a tendency to break if you missue it even a little.

Strengths:
Very light wieght, Shoots line with ease. Finest casting rod on the market.

Weaknesses:
Has a tendency to break if you appply pressure wrong ( lift the rod a bit high on the fight).Not very resistant to rough handling in the boat or land.

Customer Service:
Charges for repairs. I dont mind it as much as I used to, but when I get a rod back from Sage or other manafactures that have a lifetime warrantee. I really appreciate the no cost guarantee.
