Sage ESN Fly Reel — The Ultimate Euro Nymphing Machine

The Sage ESN Fly Reel is the most purpose built euro nymphing reel ever designed. Packed with a suite of specialty features fine tuned to the nuances of euro nymphing the ESN gives the technical nymph angler every advantage on the water from the first cast to the last fish.

Built around a super thin and large diameter arbor the ESN makes it easier to get fish on the reel quickly minimizing the need to guide line onto the spool with your finger while providing consistent drag output throughout the fight. A unique balance system allows anglers to assemble and fine tune a set of stainless steel weights in 1/2, 1, and 1-1/2 ounce increments so the ESN reel can be perfectly balanced to any euro nymphing or standard rod setup. No other reel on the market offers this level of customizable balance — a game changer for anglers who spend long days casting lightweight euro nymphing setups.

The full frame design prevents fine leaders and lines from sneaking through the frame during dynamic casting motions while the narrower spool is specifically designed for the small volume ESN lines used in euro nymphing applications. Sage's SCS sealed carbon drag system provides smooth uptake and consistent drag output giving you complete confidence when a fish makes a sudden run on light tippet.

Built from fully machined 6061-T6 aerospace grade aluminum and cold forged and tempered for superior strength and rigidity the ESN delivers exceptional durability and performance in the most demanding technical nymphing situations. Hard anodized for surface protection and corrosion resistance the ESN is built to last season after season on rivers like the Gunnison and Uncompahgre where euro nymphing reigns supreme. Every Sage ESN comes packaged with a neoprene and embroidered ballistic nylon reel case and spare weight case.
