Sage SHIFT LT Fly Reel Squall, 5/6

The Sage Shift LT fly reel pairs a proprietary sealed carbon drag system with a cold-forged 6061-T6 aluminum frame and spool, cutting weight without cutting stopping power. Redundant internal seals keep grit, sand, and saltwater out of the drag stack, so the same carbon discs used to dissipate heat in braking systems keep working season after season. A large arbor speeds up line pickup, and the One Revolution Drag Knob puts 39 numbered settings within a single turn. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I put a 9/10 through a long, ugly fight with a king that wouldn't stop running, and the sealed carbon drag never faded or grabbed, just steady pressure the whole way down. That's the difference between a reel that's light and a reel that's light enough to still finish the fight."
