The molded, paddle-style handle and large drag-adjustment knob round out the features on this exceptional reel.
Anglers of all ability levels will be able to appreciate the medium-fast action Launch series rods. A smooth, progressive power curve and an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio deliver an amazing amount of line feel. They sport wood reel-seat inserts, chrome-plated snake guides and high-grade Portuguese cork grips. Like all Sage rods, each Launch is handmade in Bainbridge Island, Washington.

Love this combo,June 23, 2008
By rob3rdfrom CT
"I bought this rod and reel combo to replace a starter 3 weight that I had for several years. The rod and reel have exceeded my expectations in every way so far. I find the combo very well balanced and the reel is well built. The rod has the 3 weight Rio WF on it and it loads line very well. The rod has a lot of action to it. I have had loads of fun nymphing in small creeks catching trout up to 16 inches and also fly fishing for bluegills. The river I fish in has a lot of confinded areas which make casting sometimes difficult. I have been pleasantly surprised by how much line this 7'6", 3 weight rod will pick up off of the water in a roll cast."

Great Combo,May 27, 2008
By SierraTJfrom San Diego California
"Fished the Eastern Sierras with this combo, and was very pleased with the performance. The rod was amazing, you can really feel the load with it and it delivers just like I like. The reel is a good no nonsense reel. I am very pleased with the set up and for the price you cant beat it. The Sage case is very nice as well!"

Very nice rod....8 foot 4 weight,April 7, 2008
By Walter1023from NY
"This was my first "premium" rod after 7 years of flyfishing.....even though its the lowest end Sage - it casts really nice.....i've only been chucking weight and nymphs so far (early season).....but when I cast just my line/leader - in anticipation of some dryflying....it is really a nice casting rod...i feel it load and can make graceful 40 feet casts."

Sage rod/Prestige combo,July 16, 2007
By Parktonfrom Maryland resident, fly fishing for 20 plus years
"I recently purchased the 6wt Sage rod/Prestige reel combo for my son and me as we prepared for a trip to Rock Creek Montana. We used the equipment for 4 solid days of trout fishing on the Rock Creek River, Bitterroot and Clark Fork. The rod/reel was the perfect combination and very forgiving for the novice angler. My son was able to master certain casting techniques very quickly - our guide is considering changing his current inventory to the sage/prestige combo for future clients.
An extremely affordable kit that will make any fishign trip enjoyable."
