Sage VXP Fly-Rod Blanks
- Slender shaft design reduces overall weight
- Generating ultrahigh line speeds
- Smooth-loading feel
Widely regarded as one of Sage’s all-time classics, the XP was a rocket of a rod known for its scorching line speeds and extreme distance capabilities. Ever since it was retired several years ago, anglers have been anxiously awaiting the next rod to take its spot. The evolution of the XP is here. The VXP improves upon its predecessor in several areas. The slender shaft design reduces overall weight to a bare minimum, while still maintaining a fast action capable of generating ultrahigh line speeds. The smooth-loading feel makes them even more responsive than the originals. Sage used varying tapers and materials to best match up each line weight with their intended duties, from casting dry flies in a spring creek to bass poppers on a lake. The handsome shadetree green blank color matches style with performance.
