How good is the sage 486-4 X?
The 486-4 X swings with the characteristic ultralight feel and tremendous tip sensitivity of Sage’s most legendary trout rods. This rod, like so many in the series, is highly tolerant of a wide range of casting styles. It throws gorgeous, parallel loops at all distances and casts with the intuitiveness of my favorite all time rods.

The Sage XP is a great rod to have in #6 wt but having said that, I think it is very possible to get a brand new rod with equal performance for the same price or even less.
Is the sage XP worth it in 5 wt?
Yes, very! I’ve tried the Sage XP in #5 wt as well and I believe that these two weight classes (the #5 ) are the sweethearts of the Sage XP range of rods. The Sage XP will forever be a classic rod and one which remains extremely sought after.
Who is the sage XP for?
The Sage XP is for the fly rod enthusiast who appreciates owning a timeless classic as well as for the discerning angler who demands uncompromising performance. No need to over line the Sage XP, in my opinion the Scientific Anglers MPX series is the perfect line or the Royal Wulff Bermuda Triangle Taper fly line works too.
