Sage Fly Reel Thermo Champagne

A big fly reel for big fish!

It's disorienting - there's no land, just sea and sky, and marlins, tuna and mahi flocks everywhere. There are no beaches or mangroves to hold them back, just you, the reel and a piece of tippet that you can only pray will hold. When you enter the world of big game fishing and blue-water giants, endurance is paramount. A lifelong tarpon, a monster GT trevally or a huge shark can appear in your field of vision at any moment, and for an angler hunting these big fish, the most important thing is to know that your gear can handle the fight. Gradual THERMO - rugged in every way. Designed to handle any breaking, finger-cutting and hard-charging fish you may encounter. With stopping power that keeps the Giant Trevally off the reef and smoothness and durability that surpasses that of a blue marlin, the solid SCS heat-dissipating brake, rigid frame and powerful feature set will keep you protected like never before. The new leader in performance and reliability for big game reels!

Starting with the new, extremely durable SCS brake, specially designed and tuned for extreme conditions, THERMO provides drag from 0 to 20 pounds with unmatched consistent drag force throughout the entire fish run. Never dropping, skipping or wearing out due to overheating, the THERMO handles extreme conditions with ease as the drag efficiently dissipates heat through fully sealed, extra-large carbon fiber brake discs. The 20 easily visible brake settings are located atop a large-diameter brake knob that is extremely easy to grasp and adjust in the heat of battle, while 39 ratchets allow precise adjustment of any leader and tippet combination. The ultra-durable frame and spool are designed to withstand the rigors of fishing from a boat, where bumps to the side are not uncommon. With a strong, ergonomic large-diameter handle for maximum grip and control, and a large spool that allows for fast retrieval and over 500 meters of backing, the THERMO is the ultimate big game fishing reel powerhouse.
