LT TROUT FLY RODS-Medium Fast Action  

(factory rod retails for $655)

These smooth-casting, 5-piece trout rods fish wonderfully and travel exceptionally well. They have soft tips, rod actions that are slightly faster and crisper than our WT series and, of course, the distinctive feel found only in a Winston. The five-section design features our internal spigot ferrule system, which ensures that the taper and internal diameter of one section of the rod exactly matches that of the adjoining section. The performance of these fly rods is unmatched in the category; an LT 5-piece is a superb choice, whether you’re hiking into a backcountry lake, taking a trip to Chile or just heading out on your home waters.

Most trout fishing situations involve casts of less than 60 feet, usually far shorter. And when you're working these shorter distances, the ability to make gentle, accurate presentations is the key to success. Many experienced anglers consider our WT rods to be the ultimate choice for such fishing. With progressive tapers, they work nicely at close distances yet can make longer casts when needed. Proven on trout waters worldwide, these medium-action rods are incredibly smooth, offer incomparable touch and feel, and the tips are soft enough to protect 6x and 7x tippets while playing large trout.

BORON IIx CUSTOM FLY RODS– Fast Action

Boron IIx
Made with second-generation boron/graphite composite, Boron IIx rods have redefined the fast-action category. A common flaw in most fast-action designs is a lack of casting range; the rods are often hard to load at short distances and even at longer range can be clumsy due to overly stiff butt sections. The Boron IIx series has changed everything. These are responsive, powerful, highly accurate fly rods that perform across a wide casting range; they load easily for gentle presentations up close, yet can also make very long, pinpoint casts of 100 feet. To date, across the board, Boron IIx rods are the lightest in the industry. This makes for very pleasant, all-day casting, even with the 10 and 12-weights. We urge you to cast a Boron IIx rod today. You will be amazed.

Why Boron?
We first started using boron/graphite composite in 1997. It's an unusually strong material with a very quick recovery rate and is ideal for designing rods that can generate extremely high line speeds. Boron IIx is the second generation of this composite, and the features of this new material have allowed us to create the most advanced fly rods in the world. They have all the strength and power of boron, while being very lightweight and offering the rare ability to fish at close, medium or long distances with equal aplomb.

BORON XTR5 and XTR Custom Fly Rods        back to top

(factory rod 8 WT. to 10 WT. -$675: 12 WT. - $695: 14 WT. - NA).

Boron XTR
XTR is short for extreme, and these fly rods certainly live up to the billing. Made with our exceptionally strong, first-generation boron/graphite composite, they feature very fast actions, as well as stiff tips and butts. The power of XTR rods, and the line speeds they can generate, is remarkable. This makes them the perfect choice for hardcore saltwater situations that involve wind, big flies, shooting heads and sinking lines. These rods can also make very long casts with a minimum of false casting, giving you the ability to quickly get your fly where it needs to be. Whether you’re working a fast offshore rip with heavily weighted Deceivers, dredging deep with a 450-grain line or battling a juvenile bluefin that’s gone deep, you’ll be glad you have an XTR in your hand. They are made to get the job done.
