Description

Overview

The small water DART features a short-range fast action for chasing wary trout in still and clear water, close quarters, or obstacle-ridden streamsides. Specifically designed to drive precise loops under the branches of a willow while still providing delicate presentations and delightful feedback to the angler. The KonneticHD materials combined with performance-friendly fast action gives fishermen the ultimate competitive advantage against highly selective trout. The 0-4wt models at 7'6" provide the backbone of this family with ultra-light performance, while the shorter model in a 3wt provides a specialty tool to the angler looking for accuracy in extremely confined areas. The lightest, most precise casting small water rod ever made, the DART is destined to become a cherished tool in the trout fisherman's quiver for years to come.Read More +

Sage Rod & Reel Warranty

Every new Sage rod, blank, and Sage series reel purchased through an authorized dealer is covered by our original owner warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

This warranty is limited to repair and replacement of the rod, blank, or reel and does not cover direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, or any other type of damage resulting from the use of the product. This warranty does not cover misuse, neglect, normal wear, fire, theft, missing/lost rod sections, intentional breakage, modification or customization of the finished rod, or damage during the assembly of a blank into a finished rod by a non-Far Bank custom rod-builder. Warranty coverage on rods built from Sage blanks is limited to the blank only and does not extend to any custom work or components added to the blanks. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state.

Sage reserves the right to determine whether to repair or replace any Sage product covered by this warranty and the right to replace any discontinued models with comparable models when necessary. Colors and components may vary between original and replacement parts.

The original owner warranty against defects in materials and workmanship applies to rods with a serial # beginning with the letter "A" and higher, including all double letters (i.e., AA, AB, and AC). One exception is the rods manufactured with a serial number Q, R, S, or T. These rods carry an unconditional, original owner lifetime warranty.

Should breakage occur outside of warranty coverage (when it's not the result of material defects or workmanship), a repair or replacement can be processed for a fee. Some items are no longer repairable. In these situations, Far Bank will contact you with alternative options once our technicians have completed their inspection of your item.

To invoke this warranty, the original owner must send the entire Sage product, including broken parts or pieces, freight paid and insured to the Bainbridge Island address provided during the online repair process.

ACCURATE DELIVERY OF SMALL FLIES

With a “close-quarters fast action” design, the DART is capable of high line speeds at close range. Easy loading in the bottom end and highly responsive towards the tip, the DART is able to quickly produce a narrow loop form that precisely delivers your favorite small stream flies.

Sage

CASTING AMONGST OBSTRUCTIONS

The short physical length of the blank offers the angler the opportunity to tuck into even the most overgrown creeks. Fallen timber and arching willow brush are no match for the compact build of the DART.

Sage

LIGHT, STEALTHY PRESENTATIONS

The easy-loading bottom end of the DART allows for unmatched sensitivity in hand. With minimal fly line out of the rod tip, anglers can feel the load throughout the entire casting stroke, allowing for extremely delicate presentations in close.

KONNETIC HD

KonneticHD Technology is the next era in performance graphite rods. Optimizing our graphite-to-resin ratio, we have created a higher density (HD) fiber composite, resulting in lighter, stronger blanks which deliver unmatched recovery, energy transfer, and line/loop control. Building upon proprietary construction techniques developed for Konnetic Technology, KonneticHD gives us an elevated platform to achieve new levels in rod design.
