What new Sage 5 wt??

[Big Racks]

I'm a big fan to this day of my old Sage VPS 590-2. It was my first fly rod 20-odd years ago and has been there and back with me. It's starting to show its age, missing an end butt cap, and some abrasions in the finish here and there.

I just replaced it with a Sage Pulse 590-4 when I dropped into the W2W sale at The Fishing Hole. I was mostly just there to browse, and this ended up being a impulse buy of sorts, though I really do want a new 5 wt. Now I'm thinking I probably should do some actual research and get it right. It's going to wear either an Islander LX 3.4 or an IR3, both of which I grabbed at the same sale LAST year, lol.

So, I'm not nearly up to speed on current and recently retired Sage models. Should I stick with the Pulse, or a Mod, or a Bolt, or an Accel...? You get the idea. I do own a new Bolt 6wt that I've yet to actually fish, so can't say if it truly fishes well for me or not. All feel pretty good in hand, but until you're strung up and casting it's hard to get a feel for it. I can get a similar deal as the Pulse on a 5wt Bolt or Accel, the Mod will run a bit more.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
