Sage :: Over the last few years, the Sage name and logo have become synonymous with high quality, high performance
fly rods. This is one company never content to rest on its laurels. Ever wonder why that original RPL
taper you love so much is no longer available in retail shops? It's because Sage has made it better...two
or three times actually.
Scott :: From humble beginnings in the
San Francisco Bay area in 1974 and now entirely built by hand in Montrose, Colorado, Scott Fly Rods has
evolved into one of the top providers of high performance fly rods created from custom carbon materials
and complex tapers. With over 100 distinct models of graphite and fiberglass fly rods covering a wide price
range, Scott has something for everyone.
Winston :: What other company has a specific fly rod action named after them?
"That Winston action" has become world famous as the performance standard to which many other
manufacturers aspire. The goal of the R.L. Winston Rod Company is simple: perfection. Custom carbon
(and boron) scrim, complex tapers, and absolutely perfect cosmetics characterize every Winston fly rod.
G Loomis :: The lineup for 2008 is exemplary of G.Loomis' dedication to creating condition-specific
actions and tapers and crafting rods that are as beautiful as the settings in which they are fished. A special blend of
two, and sometimes three, proprietary graphites makes all rod actions incredibly responsive and lightweight.
