Sage TCX Review by Matt Baker

A few months back, Mike O’Connor and I had the opportunity to fish the Sage TCX on the California Delta. After the first few casts Mike and I were completely amazed by the high line speed this rod is able to generate. Crafted from Generation 5 Graphite, this rod takes distance casting to the next level and beyond. Need to throw big casts, big flies, heavy-grain lines, or deep nymph rigs? This is the weapon of choice…

Since it’s recent introduction, Desert Sportsman has outfitted many anglers with the TCX. The overall impression of those anglers has been the ease of casting and incredibly light nature of the rod despite it’s magnum power. We have seen casters of all skill levels perform very well with this rod.

The TCX is a great looking rod with extra-flor grade cork, premium hardware, and a stunning vibrant green color. We have teamed up with Abel to offer a “TCX Green” finish on a variety of their reels suited for the TCX rod. Please contact us for more details…
