Its a 2 piece, lovely rod and a gem to cast. just thinking whether its worth updating it compared to newer rods.

Default Sage RPL

Hi

I would echo the other comments. Keep your RPL plus.
I have an original RPL 10ft for a #7 2 piece and in my opinion is probably the best Sage made. I do have other Sage rods but would never sell the RPL.

Regards
