I'm still pretty new at this game so I'd appreciate any advice or opinions on the Sage 9140. I took a spey casting class and this was the rod that I first used and was recommended so I bought a slightly used one. I later bought a Sage 6126 which I love for fishing the smaller rivers in N. CA where I live. Now that I'm getting decent at casting I'm thinking of getting a heavier weight rod but switching back to the traditional action of the 9140 gets my timing all messed up.
I've heard that the 9140 is one of the best "traditional spey" rods
but I pretty much learned to cast "underhand" from the beginning
and it seemd most of you prefer a faster rod for that style. Since I can't afford to go out and buy another brand new rod, I'm thinking of selling the 9140.
I'm torn about what to do. Any suggestions?? Thanks.
Kim
