The subject line really tells it all folks. I am wondering if this rod
(Sage SLT 5wt) can handle a sink tip line with any facility or should I
be looking at the 6wt? Also what functional diference do you think
there is between the 8.6 foot vs the 9.0 Foot SLTs?

You might try overlining the 5wt with a 6wt sink tip. I have a 6wt bug
taper that I use on a 5wt and it works well with heavy flies.
