Default Sage 796 XP and 796 SLT

Hi Finn,

The SLT is maybe 10% softer/lighter and is for those who want a rod that is
not as stiff/powerful as an XP.

For bigger flies, larger water and larger fish, I would advise on the XP for
most.

Hi,
Im looking for a rod for trout- and salmonfishing in rivers. I've tried XP
and its a lovely rod. Unfortunately Ive have not been able to come over a
SLT 796 yet. They all say this is a lovely rod to cast, but perhaps to

soft
for salmon and big troutfishing. Does someone have experiences with both
these rods? Ill be happy for opinions on this.

Sincerely
Finn Haug
