The patriarch to the Method Fly Rod series that has your guide thinking about rolling out a red carpet to the boat.

Your guide or buddies better be ready to roll out the red carpet when you pull the Sage Method Elite 4-Piece Fly Rod out from its rod tube. Already dressed in an elegant red befitting royalty,  the Method Elite shows off its further refinements that are bound to make fellow anglers' heads turn. Its titanium reel seat, stripping guides, and winding check add a whole new level of sophistication and durability while an extra (spare) tip keeps you ready for the unexpected. 


Since you spend hours on the river and fish hard, it's no wonder you use the Method Elite. Built on Sage's Konnetic technology, the Method Elite produces high line speeds and tight loops for extreme distance and wind-cutting casts all while maintaining critical accuracy and feel. Konnetic technology uses an advanced modulus positioning system by which Sage precisely aligns carbon fibers to exacting tolerances for optimal performance in the blank. In addition, Sage's layup process features a high-compression molding process wherein carbon fibers are compressed for optimal density in a narrow diameter blank, with a carbon inner core that's 50% lighter than previous rod cores. As a result, Sage is able to deliver the Method Elite—an ultra fast-action fly rod that's able to punch through the wind and carry the biggest, bulkiest, heaviest flies in your box out to where they can work their magic.


The magma colored shaft of the Method Elite is complemented by rust-colored primary thread wraps and pewter trim wraps. Larger, heavier duty, hard chromed snake guides also make it easier to shoot line and clear tangles. Its freshwater series (5wt) features a snub-nose, half-wells grip while the Method's saltwater series (8wt) has a full-wells grip with fighting butt. For protection during transport and storage, the Method Elite comes with a black rod sock and a fusion red powder-coated rod tube with a silver colored medallion and gloss black end caps.
