As a small still water rod, I think it will work well.
Light enough for delicate fishing, long enough to reach over the bushes etc.

Nymphing, adds depth to your fly fishing.
Nymphing, is fly fishing in another dimension
Yes, I would agree, and this is how I have always felt, hence, me never owning a 4wt....until now.
This is the strangest rod imaginable. It has the backbone to cast a team of flies as you would normally do on a still water, yet has the delicacy to fish very light tippets in a nymphing application. It was designed to cast multiple heavy flies in a large river application, so what's the difference between that, and a stillwater? As for fishing a dry fly, I don't think so, but nothing will surprise me, besides thats not what i got it for anyway.
I have recently realised that Sage are comming out with stuff, that can't really be categorised into the general mould that we have become used to. I think that this rod might be the first genuine all rounder, in the sense that it can cast like a heavier rod, but can fish like a lighter rod. It is the wierdest thing, but you have to try this rod to believe it. Even the "car park" casting test...its a rocket I tell you, yet, its about a soft and flexible as my Greys Missionary, and about as light as my ZXL, spooky man...I just wonder what next.

Congrats.... sounds like a fine rod.
Im very happy with the 6 weight, may go 4 weight later. Then between those two rods, a host of variety of fishing can be explored. What I liked about the 6 weight is the fighting butt on the end of the cork, is there same on the 4 weight.
I'm not addicted to fishing, I can quit anytime my wife makes me!!
