    Was hoping for more choice out of this line of rods. 7125 and 5120 for winter and summer respectively. Hoping those come later.

      Yes, maybe later. You are right, there are limited number of size/weight runs of the SONIC.

      @@redsflyshop Thanks. Sorry that should be 7126 of course. I have a 7133 VXP and I wouldn't want to go any longer for the smaller rivers I'm fishing on Vancouver Island.

    Looking a new rod, starting to fish for redfish, black drum and speckled trout. I fish inlet water that come off the gulf of mexico, wind is a major factor and im wanting to get away from my single hand 8wt. 2-4 hrs in the summer in southwest louisiana exhausting at times.

      If you are blind casting, a two hander can provide some serious distance with ease. These shooting lines will really hit the water hard and are not very accurate - so there are some downsides. If I were getting a rod specifically for that it would be 11'6" or shorter, and I would do a "one line bump" with a RIO Outbound Short floating line. I think a 7 weight would be ideal. If have a budget in mind, I'll certainly suggest some specific rods. The Sage SONIC 7116-4 is a fast rod and would gobble up line. An 8 weight Tropical Outbound would hum on that rod. redsflyfishing.com/products/sage-sonic-two-handed-rods-spey-and-switch?variant=37909632581831

    Is the casting feel any different between 7136-4 and 7136-6 especially for scandi usage? Any benefit to choose 6piece if only travel once a while?

    • @redsflyshop
      @redsflyshop  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think the 4 piece is softer and more pleasant to cast and load. You need to be a fairly aggressive caster to make the 6 piece hum. Once per year.... that's a tough call there.

    Is that the Sage One in disguise?

    • @redsflyshop
      @redsflyshop  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I believe so, I haven't put them side by side but they are both built with Konetic Technology. The wraps, reel seat, finish, I believe was a bit more posh on the Sage ONE however. Sonic is still very nice, just not "exquisite".

      Oh it's about $1.2k all in. It depends on the reel, you can go big on that or small.

    What would you recommend for reels on a 6wt 9 1/2 sage sonic

    • @redsflyshop
      @redsflyshop  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would get the 7+ Lamson Speedster. That reel is very light, and the additional arbor size will increase your retrieve rate along with a smoother outgoing drag. These reels are so light anymore, that a larger reel will aid in balance and performance. The 6 wt. 9'6" SONIC is more of a 7 weight, so this reel is a great match. US built, super quality. redsflyfishing.com/products/waterworks-lamson-speedster-s-series-reels-and-spools?_pos=2&_sid=a3012baf8&_ss=r
