I’ve always fished a reverse half wells grip and the Sage is more like this than the Radian.
Given that, I’ve caught 4 fish now with the Radian and have been skunked twice on the One so from a pure fish catching perspective the Radian wins hands down.

What is the MPX line ?? I have used a One and really rate it, so light and crisp it make the Z axis feel like bamboo. Haven't lost any fish with the One myself.

Scientific Anglers Amplitude MPX is the line. A variation on the Sharkskin they put out. It’s a textured finish that feels really weird but it just is slicker than anything I’ve ever cast. Plus it floats higher than any line I’ve ever had and they say it will last 5 times longer. At $220 though it’s not a cheap line. I will eventually move all my floating lines over to SA MPX.
I was never a Sage man. I thought it was all just hype. So far I’m coming round to the One in a big way.
