I bought an XP 590 last summer and loved it but when I looked at their website after reading your post I could not find the XP on the website... did the Z-axis replace the XP... I think I will get one of those here in a few months.. I love sage rods

No more XP's. Hang on to yours and get another at a low price. They'll be going the way of the LL's.

I am basically Orvis, but I do own a Sage LL and it is too sweet!
I might get around to trying the Axis. I tried the GLX by Loomis and I really like that, but I got so many rods already and just add one more custom built to my list for Christmas.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]They don't make the LL anymore, but it is one of the sweetest rods that Sage built. It is a nice med to med/fast rod.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I have a 2wt and I love using it on the middle Provo. It sets the hook nice and you don't break the smaller tippet with it.[/size][/black][/font]

LL was the light line series. A lot of Sage owners said it was the best rod they ever made. Then- Sage drops it. Highly sought after rod.

I agree Evil. I have not really fished one per say, but I have cast one a time or two.
Also, who said you could use my picture??

Dud, you're a lot uglier than I am. Here's the picture of you I took at your wedding.

Hey Flygodess (or anyone else)
Since your an Orvis fan, do you have or have you fished with the new Zero Gravity rods? I have one TLS and one T3 rod and like them both. The T3 is my favorite rod. I got them both on sale for substantially less than list price but I doubt the Zero Gravity rods will be going on sale any time soon and was wondering if it's worth splurging on?

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I do, I have the 9' 6wt. four piece mid-flex 7.5 (basically cause I heard they were a faster rod)[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]It is faster, more comparable to an 8.0 and higher.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I absolutly love this rod. It is not only beautiful but light, and very responsive.[/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I will compare it to the feel of the Streamdance GLX with the GLX being a little faster, but both are crisp if that makes sense. [/size][/black][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]Would I buy another.....in a heart beat.[/size][/black][/font]
