I like to carry a bluegill (3 wt) and a smallmouth (6 wt) rod in the trunk of my car for unexpected fishing opportunities. For 20 years I have been happy with a 9' 6 wt Loomis GL3 but get tired fighting with the two piece rod in the trunk of my Honda Civic. So I could either get a new car (not) or a new rod. I have been looking at the Sage Flight as a 4 piece 6 wt. No local dealers so I might have to wait a few weeks to try one out. I am looking for a light rod, fast side of medium-fast, US made, under $300. Any comments on this fairly new model? Any other suggestions?
