New Setup - ebacon - 03-17-2013
I just upgraded to new gear for the coming season. I was using the reddington crosswater rod and reel. Yesterday I purchased a new Sage Approach along with a Lamson Guru 2 black reel. Do you guys think I made a good decision?

[font "Century Gothic"][#008000][size 2]Hi there ebacon, Looks like you bought yourself a pretty good setup. Sage is certainly a name that can be trusted. Make sure that you get a good quality fly line for that is what your whole system should be built around. Good luck.[/size][/#008000][/font]

NICE!!! I don't know why Sage lists it as an entry level rod, I think it is awesome.
And I have always loved Lamson.
I agree with Dryrod though, the line is the cake when it comes to fishing. Get a good line.

The Sage Launch of years gone by was listed at one time as an entry level rod.. ??

Nice... and listen to DR and FG... the line is critical.. buy the best you can afford and you will not regret it.. :-)
