Sage Spectrum C Fly Reel

The Sage Spectrum C fly reel pairs a sealed carbon drag with fast line pickup. Its large arbor helps you wind in loose line quickly. In addition, the light aluminum frame gives you a strong build without extra bulk. The curved, vented spool adds strength and room for line.

Sage Spectrum C fly reel drag control

First, set the drag with the large aluminum knob. The knob turns through one full turn and has numbered settings. As a result, you can see where you have set it and make small changes with ease.

For example, note your drag setting before your first cast. Then, use the marks as a guide when you need to change it. The reel uses Sage's sealed carbon drag system, also known as SCS.

Pick up line when a fish turns

Picture a fish turning toward you as loose line gathers near your feet. The large arbor helps you wind that line back in fast. Meanwhile, the shaped handle gives you a firm, comfortable grip.

The spool also has a curved inner surface with vents. This design adds strength and line space. Together, these features help you manage your line through the fight.

A light frame with a tough finish

Sage makes the frame from die-cast aluminum and gives it a machined finish. In addition, a powder coat helps protect the surface from wear and corrosion. The hub, drag knob, and handle also have a machined aluminum build.

You can switch the reel from left-hand to right-hand wind. Therefore, you can set it up to suit the way you fish. Choose your winding hand, set the drag, and get ready to cast.
