Description

A nice RL Winston bamboo fly rod, 7', 2-piece, 2-tips, built for a #4 line. Serial # 2600. The owner's name and weight are inked on the rod, the latter at 2 5/8 ounces (though my scale has it closer to 3.4). Oven tempered cane done in a three up node pattern. As with all of the Montana Winston rods, the varnish is fantastic, right up there with the very best of the best. The wraps are tan with cinnamon edges at the keeper, ferrules, and tip-tops. Chrome snake guides and a #8 SRMC carbide stripper. The action is a full flexing medium. The rod condition is near mint or lawn cast, with a cosmetic "casting crack" in a wrap on one tip only. The grip is 6" long and shaped to a lightly sculpted Western profile. The reel seat
