The Sage Payload Fly Rod was designed to throw large, heavier flies. Built with Konnetic technology, the carbon fibers are augmented with resin to produce a stronger, lighter, more sensitive fast-action fly rod. The rod features tangle free Fuji ceramic guides to aid in line management. A heavy duty aluminum reel seat secures the reel to the rod. Fly anglers who throw large heavy flies for large predatory fish would use this.

This rod is best for an angler looking for a specific or niche rod. That angler wants a rod that is accurate at various distances and can easily throw bigger streamers, bass poppers, and other large wind-resistant flies to predatory fishing think Bass, Pike, Muskie, and other large freshwater fish. The rod is 8'9" in the 6wt to 9wt sizes,... Read more
Ideal for
- Fast action rod helps generate line speed to cut through the wind and deliver big flies accurately.
- This rod is made for throwing big flies at bass, pike, musky and other predatory fish.
- This rod works well with floating, intermediate, and sink tip line, it picks up line well.
Not ideal for
- This rod is not made for the beginner angler, the fast action rod takes some good timing.
- The rod is made for throwing big flies, think larger streamers, big bass poppers; this rod is not a general all around 9ft rod.
- The rod isn't the lightest rod in the market, it has some heft to it that works well for its intended purpose.

I’m just a gal having fun learning to fly fish and ready to buy my own set up. Having minimal knowledge of what buy and loads of options out there, shopping can be a bit overwhelming. But, Johnny was so great to work with! His knowledge & attention to detail, and humor made it fun & easy figuring out a great starter set up best suited for me.

Matt helped me out of the fog and the overwhelming state I was in trying to buy my first Flyfishing set up…. I would still be fishing for gear a month from now if it wasn’t for him sticking his hand out to me.
5 /5
I’ve dealt with more than a handful of folks on fb marketplace that were downright aggressive, mean, and unhelpful to me over a series of exchanges in my search for gear. Matt was everything but. He not only pointed me in the right direction but he was friendly and knowledgeable as well. I needed all the help I could get and he was there. Thanknu again Matt.

I'm an intermediate angler with little knowledge of equipment. Rylyn was very responsive to all my questions, even the ones I thought were stupid. Very open about what he does and how he is paid. I highly recommend him.

I bought an open box Orvis fishing rod and it was at a great price. The condition of the rod and the shipping time exceeded my expectations. The information I received from Capt. Mark was accurate and helpful. I would definitely buy from Curated again.

Helped me with some valuable fly fishing knowledge that I lack coming from the conventional fishing world. Hooked me up with a good starter rod and even price matched it with another company. Will be coming back for a reel soon.
