Sage XI3 Saltwater Fly Rod
On the flats, blue water or anywhere in between, your first shot is always the best shot. But, as experienced saltwater anglers know, sometimes that first shot means the bonefish you didn’t see until it was right here, and other times it’s an upwind bait ball way out there. Introducing the new Xi3 Series saltwater fly rods. Through Sage's exclusive SaltH2O Technology, Xi3 rods provide a groundbreaking level of torque and torsion resistance for superior tracking and less wasted energy at all distances. SaltH20’s unique layer interface and proprietary resin also combine for maximum strength - even in high heat environments - and significantly less weight. This increased strength comes in handy when you need to lean on powerful saltwater bruisers. Just as importantly, it gives you the backbone to pick up 60 or 70 feet of line on desperate second (and last) chance casts. Sage's latest version of G5 construction adds improved line feel for easier, more intuitive casting, and specialized saltwater-specific components complete the package. In other words, the new Xi3 is everything you need to make that first shot count.

Helios™ 5-weight 7'9" Fly Rod—Mid Flex
We set out on an adventure to make the world's lightest fly fishing rod. Along the way, we also made the world's best. The Far and Fine, or 795 is historically one of the great Orvis fly rod models. At just under eight feet and rated for a five weight, this ideal trout fly rod has evolved over the years from bamboo, through the graphite history of Orvis and is still one of the most popular models we sell. This is a great dry-fly rod for precise presentation at medium to close range, yet it has no problem sending a cast well over forty feet if necessary. The slightly shorter length offers enhanced precision in placing the fly in precisely the drift needed, but as a five-weight offers plenty of strength to handle big trout and larger flies if necessary. This is by no means a small-stream rod only, but a precision tool for any trout water where the need for a precise first cast is paramount. The 795 has proven itself a favorite fly rod over the years and this new Helios version simply adds to the Far and Fine legend.
