Special rods for special folks.
I built this sweet Sage ESN HD 10' #2 weight for a dear friend of mine.
Classic and classy appointments like a gorgeous Bellinger NS upslide, flared end reel seat and a matching Struble agate, along with deep red silk wraps tipped in double white silk wraps.
The slim shaped snub-nose half wells handle feels perfect on this long, light rod. I pay very much attention to perfecting handle shape & sizes on my rods, because of the utmost importance in "feel" you get from a rod with a great proportioned handle.

Classic Sage LL hook keeper and a fine and polished NS winding check are "small" details that make a huge difference for a one-of-a-kind fly rod.
The new ESN HD from Sage is lighter, smoother, sweeter than its predecessor, also very sweet casting rod, feels shorter, very intuitive caster, unlike the older series. Simply loved casting it for a few minutes on the lawn, a true 2wt. and can also cast a 3wt. line very well with a slower pace.
Handcrafted, exquisite burgundy leather case.
This ten foot two weight is a light dry-nymph fisherman's dream rod.
