Sage Tarpon One 8'10" 11wt 1pc Rod

The tarpon game asks a lot out of angler, guide, and gear. A great tarpon rod possesses sensitivity for quick and accurate fly delivery at a variety of distances, but is also incredibly durable with pulling power capable of subduing large tarpon day after day, and season after season without fail. Developed alongside some of the best guides in the most iconic waters of South Florida, the action has been rigorously tested-and-tuned to the situations found on these legendary flats. Additionally, by eliminating the ferrules found on multi-piece rods, the substantial increase in strength already provided by R8 Technology is fully realized, offering unmatched durability and pulling power. For the serious tarpon angler that isn’t in need of the convenience of a four-piece rod, this synergy of strength, durability, and finesse makes the SALT R8 TARPON ONE the finest performing tarpon rod ever built. Lastly, this rod features a unique cosmetic package that is complete with tarpon artwork from renowned artist Tim Borski - laser engraved on the reel seat – rounding out this truly special package.

The all-new SALT R8 11810-1 TARPON ONE is an 8’10” one-piece limited-edition model of Sage's acclaimed 11 weight SALT R8. Along with the overwhelmingly positive feedback they’ve received from the SALT R8, they’ve heard from guides, shops, and anglers about the importance of a one-piece rod, and the desire for them to produce one with the same bones as the four-piece. In alignment with the rest of the SALT R8 family, this rod was developed on the water, and with the help of some of the finest guides and anglers in saltwater fly fishing.

All proceeds from this project will be donated jointly to Bonefish & Tarpon Trust’s Juvenile Tarpon Habitat Initiative, and Captains For Clean Water Education & Awareness programs respectively.
