I am thinking about buying a new rod soon and i am just looking to try a new brand for a change, i have fished orvis for a good while now and i just want to see what some other companys are all about. So with that said i am just looking for a low end sage rod to get the feel for them. I was looking at the sage flight and the sage vantage i had the chance to cast the flight it has a very nice fast action, the biggest draw back for me was the diameter of the 4wt wow! it is as big as most of my 5 and 6 wt orvis rods. I have not seen the vantage in person i was just wondering if it has the same diameter and thickness as the flight. has anyone compared the two side by side to see if the vantage is smaller. I figured maybe since it is a medium action that it may be smaller. Is the 4wt Sage Vantage smaller in diameter than the 4wt Sage Flight?
I would like to fish the flight for anyone who has fished it does it handle trout like a true 4wt or does the power of the rod take out the fun in smaller fish retrievals? Thanks
