Me too Olli. I just bought a new Sage Z-axis (9ft #6). Don't want to know what that does to my bank account...

Jay,

6 wt Z-Axis... I'm jealous, would you say it is the ultimate streamer rod for trout? And a rod for some serious nymphing as well.

You must have overcome the color thing then?

Well it sure is a great streamer rod indeed. I bought the saltwater version (full wells grip & metal reel seat) to use it for light saltwater fishing too.

The pale greenish color is still something I've yet to love. It just isn't macho...
