I'm just got an email from a retailer selling Xi2's for 30% off.  Is Sage discontinuing/tweaking them?

i haven't heard anything about dq on the xi2.... however, my guess would be is that this fall it is time for a change due to age.... sage seems to be stuck on a 5 year cycle for most models.

the xi2 has been a great rod for me personally.... species: redfish, speckled trout, flounder, striper, preachers dick, blue crab (damndedt catch  ;D ), snook, tarpon, lemon shark, blacktip shark, hammerhead shark (nearly to the boat... dangit), spanish mackeral, bluefish, bonito, and yeah oh yeah baby.... lotsa my favorites.... false albies.

30% off advertising in the spring.... someone is tempting sage to have their dealership revoked.

that said, in these trying times, every shop has to do what it takes to survive.... i know i will.
