Konnetic HD - perfect loop control
KonneticHD is the next era in performance graphite rods. Optimizing the graphite-to-resin ratio, SAGE has created a higher density (HD) fiber composite, resulting in lighter, stronger blanks which deliver unmatched recovery, energy transfer, and line/loop control. Building upon proprietary construction techniques developed for Konnetic Technology, KonneticHD gives us an elevated platform to achieve new levels in rod design.
Details of the SAGE IGNITER Fly Rods
490-4 IGNITER
Best used for trout, when precision and presentation is required. Power to generate line speed for larger dry fly patterns, with the benefit of a soft landing 4wt line.
590-4 IGNITER
Sage's most versatile trout-sized rod with extra power; enabling high line speed for distant targets and a wider variety of lines and flies. Why wade into the water when you can stand back, and make the same shot from the cover of the bank?
690-4 IGNITER
One of the most universal line weights; with the power to drive large dry flies into the wind, turn over large streamers, and lift sinking lines.
691-4 IGNITER
A fighting butt version of the 690-4. At home on a flat fishing light saltwater patterns for small bonefish or in a drift boat throwing streamers to the bank. The fighting butt gives you added control to leverage the fight in your favor or added support while casting.
697-4 IGNITER
The added length of the 697-4 makes this rod extremely versatile. Ready for anything from trout to anadromous species to lake fishing. The extra length is advantageous for steeple casting over obstructions from the beach or aerializing line while seated from a watercraft.
790-4 IGNITER
The 790-4 has enough power to carry large, weighted flies into the wind, yet enough delicacy to present to spooky flats species like bonefish and redfish. Excellent choice for smallmouth Bass and larger wind resistant flies.
7100-4 IGNITER
The 7100-4 offers the most power, distance, and line control of any 7-weight in the family. Incredible mending capability in rivers and distance in lakes or bigger rivers.
890-4 IGNITER
Our most popular saltwater line weight capable of tackling most inshore species. The go-to model when conditions and quarry are unknown. Ideal for presenting long shots to bonefish in technical conditions. Power for lifting and positioning sinking lines in salt-and-freshwater environments.
691-4 IGNITER
The most powerful and fastest action 9wt Spey rod. Power to lift and control Scandi heads, long belly and traditional style Spey lines.
990-4 IGNITER
The choice for anglers when presentation and extra precision are required in sight fishing. Perfect for making the long shot to the tailing Permit or feeding the Snook in the impossible lie deep under the mangroves. Great tool for freshwater species like Pike, Musky, and Salmon or when heavier sinking lines are required.
1090-4 IGNITER
An all-around, big game rod for challenging conditions. When big flies and distance are required, reach for the 10wt. The perfect rod for targeting Permit in windy conditions or making stealthy presentations to laid up Tarpon. The 10wt embodies the power to generate high line speeds for delivering large weighted crab patterns or the bulkiest of flies. Freshwater anglers will benefit from the same power benefits combined in a lightweight package, that's comfortable to blind cast all day long .
