If you are used to Sage you might have a tuff time settling for some of the less expensive brands mentioned.
So true. Last weekend I was absolutely slamming fish all morning... just not on a fly rod. I'm going to give the TFO a try, just hoping to match it with a good reel, cheaper than the Orvis battenkill IV. Well over $300 with a 2nd spool.
