Hey guys,
Thanks a lot for the replies. Was just down in Vegas, and stopped in at Bass Pro Shops. The clerk said they carry the Sage Bass series, but they didn't have any in stock. I'd like to get my hands on one before I spring. I found an online supplier that sells them for $25 cheaper than Bass Pro or Cabela's, no tax, no shipping charge and Sage ships these rods with a custom line to match... I'm leaning toward the Small Mouth version but I would like to find out weather the design criteria is more for the size fly used, or the size fish... If it's more for the size of fly, I think the Small Mouth version would be the ticket. I might just call Sage and see if I can get some info from them.
Anyway, I am planning a trip down to Powell when ever the next high pressure sets in, and I'd sure like to have one of these rods to try... Just thinking about one of those 4-6 lb. Striper's on a fly rod get the old adrenaline pumping :-)))
Hope you guys are all having a good day..
