Description

A nice R.L. Winston bamboo fly rod, 8, 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #6 line. Serial #3618. The rod weighs 4.4 ounces on my scale. Very modest use, slight hand soiling on the grip, and just the start of casting cracks at the ferrule wraps. Nice feeling DF action. Medium wheat straw color cane with 3-up node pattern. The varnish is superb. Light brown main wraps with cinnamon edges at the keeper, ferrules, and tip tops. Carbide stripper and chrome snakes. The ferrule fits are plenty tight and this rod is factory straight. The grip is 6″ long and shaped to a Western profile. The reel seat is a downlocking nickel silver screwlock with a pared off slide and a pocket cap. The bottom of the cap is engraved with a Winston logo: R.L. Winston Rod Co in an oval cartouche. The rod packs into a tan colored bag and the aluminum tube is brown crackle painted with the Twin Bridges, Montana data plate.
