Select ComparisonsSage X vs Winson Air
– Totally different rods. The Winston Air is a mellow dry fly oriented rod and the Sage X is a fast action all-around rod.
Sage X vs Helios 3 – In the lighter weights, the X is closer to the 3F in action and is a touch heavier in swing weight. In the heavier weights, the X has the lighter swing weight, but the action sits between the 3F and 3D in action.
Sage X vs Sage Salt HD – The X is a much lighter rod in both overall weight and swing weight. The Salt HD is a big game rod designed for shorter ‘flats’ type casts while the X is an all around tool.
Sage X vs G Loomis NRX – In the lighter line weights, the X compares closely to the NRX LP with a softer overall action and a similar swing weight. In higher line weights, the X pulls away with much lighter swing weights and similar casting abilities.

Through exclusive partnerships, Sage has developed advanced high density (HD) fiber positioning, enhanced laminate characteristics, and optimized manufacturing techniques increase composite modulus while maintaining durability. It’s the highest energy transferring material Sage has ever created.
The X also features a “Black Spruce” shaft color with Dark Green thread wraps with Metallic Grey trim wraps.
Guides
Fuji Ceramic Stripping Guides
– For proven performane durability Sage has chosen the time-tested Fuji ceramic guides, which not only reduce drag, but last a lifetime.
Hard chromed snake guides – The long-time standard for fly rod guides, the chrome snake guides both look and perform exceptionally well.
Reel Seat

Stealth Black anodized aluminum up-locking reel seat – Full wells models of the X combine their standard Super plus cork with a fully saltwater safe anodized aluminum reel seat. Naturally, it’s a dual uplocking model to make sure you’re reeling in fish, not fishing for your reel. Both reel seats include a laser etched line weight on slide band
