Description
A nice RL Winston bamboo fly rod, 8’9″, 2-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #7/8 line. Serial #2982, a Montana-era rod. The stated weight of the rod blank is 4 7/8 ounces, and the finished rod weighs 5.5 ounces on my scale. The action is on the faster side of medium. The rod is in near new condition, just with some minor grip darkening. Light wheatstraw color cane with three-up nodes. The wraps are light brown with maroon edges at the keeper, ferrules, and tip tops. This rod features two carbide strippers and chrome snake guides. The varnish is top shelf quality. The ferrule fits are excellent and the rod is straight. The grip is 6 3/4″ long and styled to a half Wells profile. The seat is a downlocking nickel silver design with a nickel silver pocket cap. The bottom cap has the Winston logo in a circular cartouche. The rod packs into a white cloth bag with an embroidered Winston logo. The tube is brown crackle painted aluminum with gold anodized aluminum collar and top with the Winston data sticker.
