The problem KJ is that you are trying to prove to yourself that the Radian was worth buying - we both know you should be leaving it at home and taking the ' One'Quote:

Same water. Same clown hanging onto it with the same rig.
Sage One = 1,
Scott Radian = 5.
If I was going hungry I still know which one I’m grabbing and which One will stay in the rack. [emoji24]
Trout with foxglove seasoning. Will make your heart race for sure.Quote:

Also I found that with the 'One' I have to release the shoot higher above the water to get a good non- spooking presentationQuote:

Well the only thing to do is sell them both and buy a Sage Method !!Quote:

Rio Gold on the Scott. SA on the Sage. The line isn’t fluro it just looks a bit bright in the photo. The front 9’ is a light tan colour too.Quote:

Poor old colour blind bastard didn't get spooked by the SA line. He is certainly resplendent though. Have you considered swapping reels between rods to see if the line is spooky on the One - the weights are close enough wouldn't matter??Quote:
