The Sage Thermo fly reel brings heavy-duty drag and a rigid frame to big-game saltwater fishing. Built for demanding flats and bluewater encounters, it targets fish such as tarpon, giant trevally, sharks, and marlin. Its heat-dissipating SCS drag delivers up to 20 pounds of pressure, while a large arbor helps retrieve line quickly.
Sage Thermo fly reel drag control
The Thermo uses an extra-robust Sealed Carbon System (SCS) drag package. Fully sealed, extra-large carbon brake discs dissipate heat during long runs. This design supports consistent drag pressure when a powerful fish takes line.
You can adjust the drag from 0 to 20 pounds. In addition, 20 easy-to-see settings provide clear reference points on the large-diameter knob. With 39 detents, you can fine-tune the setting for your leader and tippet combination.
Built for hard runs and demanding fights
Picture a giant trevally charging toward a reef as line races from the spool. You need a firm grip and a drag setting you can reach quickly. The Thermo pairs a large, ergonomic handle with an easy-to-grip drag knob to support control in those moments.
Meanwhile, the large-arbor spool provides fast line pickup when the fish changes direction. The reel's listed backing capacity exceeds 500 yards. Check the capacity for your chosen size and backing before building your setup.
Heavy-duty frame for boat fishing
Sage designed the sturdy frame and spool for the rigors of boat fishing. That includes the knocks and rough conditions that can come with days on the flats or offshore. The rigid construction complements the drag system, creating a reel focused on big-game use.
