New Product Videos: Sage Payload Rod

Built to hoof big flies and shooting-head lines—and make that process a bit easier on the angler—the Payload comes in weights 6-11, and is especially good for fishing from a boat. Be that tossing articulated streamers from a dory (6-weight), or poppers at bass 7- or 8-weight, even pike or saltwater fish in the larger sizes, you’ll notice the comfort and feel in this fast-action taper. $550; sageflyfish.com.
