The line that comes with the Sage rod is made, as has been previously determined, by Rio. I asked the folks from Ria and the line isn't a "Rio" product but is a Sage product manufactured by Rio. It will be available for $65 from Sage dealers. It is a very radical WF that turns over hard, but works wonders when cast underhanded in the manner for which the system is designed. While it will be available separately I 'm told it might be a while before the product hits the shops - first lines out will go with the rods. I'm working to get one of the rods for a full review and I'll post back here when I do. In the interim I've posted a pretty complete report about the show at http://www.flyfishohio.com
