If you’re looking at this you already know what this is; the holy grail of steelhead drift rods. This is the much coveted long gone brown blank, Fuji guides, premium cork, Fuji guides, all custom built. Blank has lifetime warranty from Sage. The rod feels like loomis 1082c in hand and is lighter than loomis 1084/1025.

9', 6-15lb line 3/16-3/4oz

Rod is 1oz lighter than the factory ct290 and balances right on the reel seat. I have a bunch of sage rods and 2 290's can’t justify keeping so many. $450.

I just finally registered here but i am under same name on ifish for 4 years.
