Overview

Featuring KonneticHD technology and a new fast action, the TROUT SPEY HD series of rods bring ease to lightweight spey techniques. Five rods from 10'3" to 11'3" excel with a variety of spey lines that are currently offered in 175-350gr sizes. The TROUT SPEY HD rods are primarily designed for spey casting as opposed to Switch rod style actions previously captured within Sage's Trout Spey category, and features an action designed for skagit and scandi style casting techniques with trout appropriate sized flies. Undeniably Trout Focused, Undeniably Fun.

SWINGING FLIES FOR TROUT

The down-and-across presentation is an incredibly effective way to target trout, and there’s no more efficient way to fish that technique than with a two-handed rod. Designed with a full-sized-spey rod feel and action, slimmed down to an appropriate size for your favorite trout water, the TROUT SPEY HD is ready to change your swing game whether you’re throwing small soft hackles or big streamers.

TAILORED TO THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN LINES

With the "Spey Craze" in full "swing," the recent advancement in Spey lines has called for an upgrade in two-handed rod performance. The TROUT SPEY HD follows suit and is designed to handle all of today’s modern Skagit & Scandi heads, and appropriate sinking tips and leaders.

EASE OF CASTING STREAMERS

Throwing streamers all day with a single-hand rod can be particularly fatiguing on the shoulder. The TROUT SPEY HD eliminates this fatigue completely when paired with an appropriate Skagit head and two-handed cast. Streamer water that once tuckered you out is now one of your favorite playgrounds.

HD Trout Spey 5116-4

"Without a doubt the most versatile two hand rod I own. It will punch a steamer through 25 mph winds to smallmouth bass on the Columbia River all day long. Put on a floating tip and you’ve got a bass popper rocket launcher! Swinging scuplins along the bottom of the river for big trout or cast a salmon fly to places other anglers simply can’t reach. I like the Rio integrated max power line in the 375 grain paired with the light MOW tips , specifically any of the T-8 combinations. The light floating MOW tip will turn over bass poppers and unlock a whole new way to approach bass fishing! For smaller flies , that don’t need the mass of the MOW tips to turn them over, the 10’ heavy Versileaders match up well. The floating Versi Tip is great for casting big dries like salmon flies and skating surface flies at dusk. The slow sink tip is perfect for swinging wooly bugger type flies. Simply put, this rod is an extremely versatile tool that has got me thinking outside the box and allowed me to be creative in my fishing. Thank you Sage !!"

Enjoyable

"An enjoyable rod. Fun to cast while working well with small streamers and soft hackles. Handled a Missouri River 20” rainbow nicely."

— Ken K. (5/5)

1 Wt. Perfect for medium sized trout streams!

"Great rod! So happy with purchase, had been fishing a 300 grain wt. scandi setup for trout in Vermont over the past two years. This easily throws a 150 grain line, lightly, and on target with very minimal if no splash at all. Great rod, throwing dries with a two handed rod is possible!"

— Clay L. (5/5)

Fabulous Rod

"This is my second Trout Spey HD rod and I absolutely love this rod. This rod works well for the applications that I use. Expectations need to be dialed back a bit because it is not a big water rod but works great on the smaller fish that I am targeting. I would definitely recommend this rod."

Trout Spey Swing Stick

"Perfect for small / medium rivers for swinging bigger streamers - love it ! Great job Sage"

— George C. (5/5)

Great rod.

"Recently received my Sage rod and had a chance to try it out fishing streamers. Although I did not catch any fish the rod was light weight and a pleasure to cast. I paired it with Rio's Elite Integrated Trout Spey 4wt line on a Rise reel. It made for a great well balanced combination and a fun day of casting weighted streamers."

Sage Trout Spey HD 4113-4

"I love my new rod. It is really light and has a lot of power. I matched it with the Reo integrated Trout Spey #4/305gr line along with Reo VersiTips recommended by Jeff from Far Bank. For me this lets the rod do all the work and maximize the rods power. I let four other Russian River Fly Fishers club members try my rod at our casting clinic and their response was wow I can really feel the difference this rod really delivers. I tried five different trout spey rods at the International Fly Show in Pleasanton Ca. last February and I knew at that time witch rod I wanted. Again, I love this rod. Thanks Robert (Jeff) C."
