reevesr1 Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Coming to a stream near you, in the near future. Ordered, just waiting for some cash to flow my way, then its minnnne 5 weight, 9' 4 piece Sage 2550 Sharkskin, one of each color im soooo excited When I was in University, I could afford beer, and sometimes food. I did get "excited" from time to time, but it wasn't over a fishing rod. Just an observation. Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 better a fishing rod then weed.. Quote
reevesr1 Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 better a fishing rod then weed.. Granted. But not better than girls, though in all honesty, the Z-axis, Sage, and sharkskin will cost you MUCH less in the long run! Edit: Back to the post--Very sweet rig! Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 bah, find me a fishergirl, or a girl that can not bitch about me going out (yes, i like fishing 2 days in a row..hell, i'll fish a week in a row!!!!!) and i'll be set I'd also say a rod is nice and quiet,..but sharkskin screeches through the guides...so maybe not Quote
alhuger Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 That's a great choice. I picked up a rod from the Z-Axis line and I am obsessed with it now. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Quote
birchy Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Sage drools.. TFO rules! LOL (instigator) Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 good thing i have 3 TFO's, so i got something to go back to Quote
Brownstone Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Coming to a stream near you, in the near future. Ordered, just waiting for some cash to flow my way, then its minnnne 5 weight, 9' 4 piece Sage 2550 Sharkskin, one of each color im soooo excited I bought one in a two piece in the Spring...It's the cats ass B Quote
headscan Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Looks like a pretty sweet outfit. I've always thought those Sage reels looked pretty badass - I'd love to hear a review on it after you've tried it out. Quote
fisher26 Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Sweet! That setup is practically the cutting edge of fly-fishing technologies (I can’t think of a better combo). I'm sure you'll love the outfit. Please review it after you've had it for a while! Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 it could be a winston boron, and an abel ....maybe not cutting edge, but expensive!!! Quote
PlayDoh Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 better a fishing rod then weed.. How about a rod Made from weed? Far out man. Quote
j5ep00 Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 brent i was seeing this girl during the summer. she would come sit there and watch, she did it all the time with me. shes pretty cute il hook up her # lol nice rig though man. have you casted the sharkskin? Quote
rusty Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 You'll love that reel. I have a 2560 and it's awesome. Quote
kungfool Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 I'm running the exact same rig Brent aside from the sharkskin (buying that this spring) and would rather get rid of my wife than this combo. You will absolutely love it. Quote

What its like dating a blow up doll? And yes, i have casted the sharkskin, thing is ridicilously good..definitly getting one for all my rods Quote
Guest JayVee Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 I'm sorry Brent but I've got to call you on this. In a recent post you advised not to buy a reel over $200...sink the money in a rod instead. That Sage 2550 is well over $300. What Gives?? Us newbies listen to what you have to say, ya know Quote
ladystrange Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 i was just looking at that same rod. sweet let me know how it is i just traded in my ex-husband for a new rod...now if i could just find a fisherboy or a boy that can not bitch about me going out (yes, i like fishing 2 days in a row..hell, i'll fish a week in a row!!!!!) and i'll be set ur too young Quote

Us newbies listen to what you have to say, ya know Honestly, i still believe in this..if you're purchasing your first or second rod, the money should go into the rod, not the reel (as much, by any means)...This will be my best setup i've ever had, and im also going to be taking it to NZ for a while, might as well get top notch for once haha. It's a balancing act as well, 2550 is nice and light, so will balance nicely on the rod Quote
LynnF Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 That is just a sweet outfit. I'm jealous. I can't believe I said that. It's not even shoes and an outfit. Quote
lonefisher Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 sweet kit man thats gonna rip some lips looks like a prefect rig for NZ. You gonna pack a 3 or 4 wt as well? Quote
Guest bigbadbrent Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Havent decided yet. Don't have a 3 or 4 in a 4 piece, so it adds a lot of bulk...i got lotsa time to find myself a smaller rod in a 4 piece, so we'll see (chances are i'll be taking 2 5's anyway) Quote
esleech Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Nice stuff dude, all these new rigs people here are getting is mad peer pressure! Quote
Glenbow Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Super sweet rig man. Yer gonna love it. You can let me love it too if you want a second opinion. Quote
