    Default Sage TXL vs its predecessors (SP,SPL &SLT)

    Which series is better? Particularly, the lighter line rods such as the 0, 1 and 2wts.

    I still like the old classic LL (light line) series. That was pre all the ones you just mentioned. I still cant believe they would discontinue such a great action.

    Apparently, the SP was built on LL technology with a higher quality graphite!

    That's interesting, I didn't know that. I once cast with Neil's SP 2wt and absolutely loved it......no wonder!

    I see there's a SPL 0wt on Tradenstuff for $375.00. Do you think its worth it?

    Landed cost will be about R3000. Eish, is a bit hectic for a second hand rod bru!
