Sage MAVERICK 10wt PERMIT & Light TARPON Fly Rod Combo Outfit with Reel + FREE Fly Line & Backing! - NEW Combo for 2023!

*Note from Salt Fly Pro: We know a lot of our customers have been using 10wt more for light Tarpon fishing now than ever before (used to be mainly considered a Permit rod size) so we wanted to make a cool combo to reflect the dual purpose of 10wt rods and the ability to easily switch between two popular species just by changing your leader real quick. This new Rio Tarpon Clear Tip floating fly line is great for Permit flies as well, so it's a nice combo which works well in a wide variety of exotic destinations.  

What's in this combo:

Rod: SAGE MAVERICK 10wt (1090-4) Fly Rod ($675) - Saltwater specific Sage fly rod - Great for Permit but also totally fine for general purpose saltwater use on many other species like baby Tarpon, large Striper, Redfish, Sea Trout, and many other fish!

Reel: SAGE SPECTRUM LT 9/10 Reel ($425) - Or we can easily change this to a different reel on request, or switch to the newest Sage ENFORCER reel ($575) instead- we do custom combos for people all the time.

 

Fly Line (FREE!): Scientific Anglers Tarpon or RIO Tarpon / Tarpon Clear Tip Floating Fly Line (WF10F) or similar lines such as RIO Elite Permit or Elite Tarpon - *You can request any other line, just ask us! 

Backing (FREE!): Rio or Scientific Anglers Blue 30lb (contact us to request a different color, also free)

Leader (FREE!): RIO Saltwater Leaders and RIO Tarpon Leaders!

Pro Setup: FREE! Call or Email us to request anything special for the setup like right-hand retrieve or a different backing color than the standard blue.

Shipping: FREE!

If you have a specific fish species in mind, let us know and we can help.

More about the NEW Sage MAVERICK Series of Fly Rods:

SAGE MAVERICK Saltwater Fly Rods - Made for Saltwater Fly Fishing

Ankle-deep bonefish flats to bait balls in bluewater, the MAVERICK has been designed from the ground up with Konnetic Technology to be fine-tuned to the demanding needs of saltwater specific applications. Tailored for quick-shots and hearty fights, it’s the perfect tool for any angler stepping into the saltwater arena where speed is of the utmost importance.

Saltwater angling is more often a game of quick shots than long casts. Dropping a fly in front of a cruising tarpon 20ft off the bow can be the difference between success and failure during a day on the flats. In fact, most saltwater fisheries put a premium on getting the fly to the target quickly. Redfish meandering about Louisiana marshes, bonefish cruising marl-covered flats, and stripers slashing at bait all require a quick cast into “the zone” for high odds at a hookup. The quicker you can lay the fly down, the better the results. Sage’s new MAVERICK has been designed to maximize these quick-shot opportunities with a powerful tip section that drives the casting load down to more robust lower sections, making it easier to fire these quick efficient casts and helping the angler make the most of their finite opportunities. With a true saltwater specific backbone and design, the MAVERICK is ready for any salty challenge thrown its way.
