R.L. Winston Quad Bamboo Rod 7'9" 2/2 #4/5

R.L. Winston Quad Bamboo Rod 7'9" 2/2 #4/5For sale here is perhaps the finest Winston quadrate bamboo rod I've laid my eyes upon. Made by Glenn Brackett late in his days with the Winston Rod Co, this 7'9" 2 2 4 5wt rod is not one you will easily find elsewhere. The darker heat tempering effect on this rod is rarely seen with Winston rods. The action is medium fast and the rod casts incredibly! 3 1 8 oz. scripted weight and 4. 1 oz actual weight due the the exquisitely knurled uplocking reel
