JOE,
I hear you on the RPL not being that fast, sort of a medium action....which is why Sage came out with the RPL+ line of rods, they are alot faster action than they're "parent" rods...The RPL+ were actually the first rods Sage designed for saltwater fishing, thought they have since added Freshwater styles to the RPL+ line...
DEAN....

Ken,I have an RPLB 9wt. the "B" stands for blank so the rod was finished by someone else. I like it, but it is not that fast of a rod. I bought it used a couple of months ago on the VFS auction site, paid $120. If you are looking for a really fast rod the RPL is not it. Don't know anything about the others.Joe----- Original Message -----Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2002 7:27 AMSubject: [VFB] Rod questionsI've asked part of this question before -- but I'd like to hear if anyone else has an opinion.I need a good fast rod -- one that I can use in saltwater too -- but I don't want to pay a fortune.Here are the options I've found so far -- I'd appreciate any opinions on them.An almost new Sage RPL+ 8wt. $250.A new Diamondback Saltwater Series 8wt. $200.A new St Croix Legend Ultra 8wt. $270.The Diamondback and Sage are 9ft and the St Croix is 9'9".I have a Sge VPS -- but I find it isn't fast enough -- especially in saltwater.Any thoughts -- suggestions?-Ken-
