ya it was either a loomis or sage for me and my friend has a loomis, its real nice but the warrenty problems he is having made me go for the sage, he has the blue rod and they dont make them anymore so loomis wants to replace the top of the rod with a black one, so he'd have a black and blue rod, and they told him it would be months before he'd see it again  ???

Well I have both the Sage 3113mb and the SAR1363 Loomis.  SO, it was a tough call for me!!!!  I love them both!!!!! ;D ;D
  Also think that the Trophy XL is an awesome rod for the Fraser!!!  Have one of them to,  Although, I would like Allwaysfishin's talon m2!!!!!  That, to me is the be all end all of poles for the Fraser!!!!! ;D ;D  Very sensitive, yet the backbone to stop a 45lb Red in high water!!!!!  I know, I've seen it!!!! Then I got to land a monster on it as well about 10 min later!!!!!  Made me a believer!!!! ;D ;D ;D

My favorite rod is the Cabela's XML.  It's actually a G-Loomis but at about $150.00 cheaper.
