"comes with special lines to overload the rods"
That's gotta be some tasty Kool Aid those boys at Sage are serving where you'll buy a 7wt rod that requires a special Sage branded line so you can overload the 7wt and actually just fish a 9wt?
I'm confused.
Was it always this stupid, or is it because someone just needed a good way to line their pockets.
edit: btw, the cabela's cgr 7'6" 7/8 is fantastically delicate, versatile, under 8' and definatly tosses a 7wt line. Or a 6. Or an 8. Probably a 9, not so much a 5. also does not require the use of a cabela's branded line, although don't suggest that too loudly...how long before rio, et al, cash in on this with a special FIBERGLASS TAPER TACTICAL ASSIST TAPER TACTICAL STRATEGIC PLACEMENT LINE.
Huh? Cortland Sylk? Oh, well, yes, but that's bamboo not so much glass, there's a market there, people!
btw, i'm serious about the CGR. i'd love to feel a giant goldfish on the end of mine.
