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 from R.L. Winston has changed everything.....really changed.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 (you won't believe how they feel in your hand). This makes for very pleasant, all-day casting, even with the 10 and 12-weights. We urge you to try a Boron IIx rod today....you'll be amazed. High performance, all-around 5-weights. Dries to streamers, small streams to big freestones.
Reel seats are the black anodized aluminum uplock with green graphite spacers which we find to be the best choice on these rods. They are also available though with nickel silver uplock with burled wood inserts.
