Serious fly rods built to hunt giant swimming carnivores In recent years, there has been a significant rise in the popularity of pike and musky fly fishing. Pike fishing has especially grown in European and Scandinavian fisheries. Based on this demand and the success of the 7â™11â• BASS II family, Sage is introducing two new rods targeted specifically at pike and musky fishing. Based on the fast action, powerful BASS II rods, the PIKE and MUSKY rods come in a 9â™ length to better handle heavy fly lines and windresistant flies that are used to target these species.
