The ARBOR XL is built for taming fast fish that are as likely to come straight at you as they are to run away – be it a Henry’s Fork rainbow, a South Andros bonefish, a chrome bright Bristol Bay silver, or anything in between. These technical reels feature an all-new extra-large arbor for ultra-fast line retrieval and a narrow spool that makes level-winding effortless. For those looking to gain every advantage in the most critical of situations, the ARBOR XL is almost like cheating. Featuring our tried-and-true Sealed Carbon System drag package tuned for optimum performance in each size class and a one revolution drag knob for reliable and repeatable pressure, the fully-machined ARBOR XL brings tested performance to an upgraded package for the most demanding of anglers. Available in two sizes: 4/5/6 and 6/7/8.

"I LOVE IT. . I THINK SAGE IS THE STURDIEST ROD FOR BIG TROUT. . . WINSTON IS GREAT FOR DELICOTO BUT SAGE CAME THREW IN ALASKA RUSSIA AND TIERRA DEL FIEGO. . YOUR STAFF WAS GREAT WORK WITH ON THE SAGE REEL. . . . . THANK YOU ALL. JSRRY"
"Great reel from Sage."
"Fantastic!!"
"Got great advice before purchase and reel meets my expectations and works very well on the water. Appreciate the staff at Trident!"
"It has plenty of drag and is smooth as butter! The large arbor really comes in handy when trying to pick up line when the speedy ghosts takeoff! Either size works great, but I prefer to have the 6/7/8 on a 6wt for more backing capacity. Then you can switch lines and you’re still good to go!"
"Reel is a trip, very narrow, over size arbor, well made as always with Sage."
