Rods

 

Fishing with a bamboo rod is one of the great experiences in angling. Bamboo is a proven natural material that lets us make rods with incredible touch and feel, as well as superb line and loop control. For over 75 years, the name Winston has been synonymous with fine, handcrafted bamboo fly rods. As evidenced by our introduction of the new, moderately priced Pentagonal series, our commitment to this material remains unwavering. Creating bamboo rods is a cumulative process. Years of testing, design refinements, study and knowledge that has been passed down from rod builder to rod builder go into every one. Winston bamboo rods are far more than things of beauty, they are extraordinary fishing instruments. QUADRATE ROD Smooth and accurate, this is a 7’9”, 2-piece, 5-weight trout rod. The four-sided construction results in a slightly faster action and a straighter casting plane. Backed by a Lifetime Warranty Free Shipping Rod Case Included --> Product Details Tips: Comes with an extra Tip Reel Seat: Nickel Silver Uplock, Downlock or Slide Band with choice of Burled Maple, Zebrawood, Dark Walnut or Lacewood insert.

Our Two-Handed (spey) rods are designed to meet the special requirements of steelhead and salmon anglers. Namely, covering lots of water, making precise mends and casting considerable distances. This year, working closely with our technical advisor Andre Scholz, who is one of the leading fly casters in the world, we’ve developed two additional BIIx rods, a 13’ 3” 7/8-weight and a 15’ 10-weight. Made with second-generation boron/graphite composite, they offer extraordinary power, responsiveness and accuracy. Extremely lightweight, you’ll find these rods to be a pleasure to cast all day. Our new, less expensive Vapor models are superb quality, two-handed rods that feature anodized aluminum reel seats and a metallic olive green finish. An excellent, affordable way to begin spey casting or add to your collection. 7/8-WEIGHT A new rod that was developed primarily for summer steelhead. Very light and exceptionally easy to cast. 8/9-WEIGHT 13’ Designed for medium-sized salmon and steelhead rivers, this is a lightweight, accurate rod that will appeal to anglers who prefer a 13’ length. 8/9-WEIGHT 14’ A great, all-around spey rod. With the ability to handle a wide range of fishing conditions and casting styles, this 14’ has gained a following for its unique combination of power and finesse. If you can only own one two-handed rod, this is it. 10-WEIGHT If you are after large salmon and steelhead in big water, this new 15’ rod is the call. Very powerful, but with the responsiveness for which the BIIx series in known. --> Product Details Handle: 2-Handed. Sections: 4 Reel Seat: Black Anodized Aluminum Uplock.

The new Sage Z-Axis Spey Rods have combined a refined feel with new technology and created one heck of a rod. The Z-Axis replaced one of the most popular rods in the world, the XP. Using new Generation 5 (G5) graphite rod building technology Sage has trimmed some weight off while creating a stronger rod with more feel at the tip. It's a fast action rod that is quite different from the norm. It's fast alright, but it's fast in that it throws the line for you as you stroke your cast, rather than punching line out there with a brute force type cast. Not only will it get your line out there with ease, you'll find that mending and throwing heavy rigs can also be achieved with little effort. The Z-Axis is forgiving and great for any angler's skill set. • Every Sage rod comes with a lifetime warranty • Rod Case Included • Free Shipping on all Sage Rods A few words from Sage "We went back to the drawing board to create the incredible new Sage Z-Axis Series Fast Action Rods. By improving the entire rod-building process, we created a rod that’s significantly lighter, stronger and easier to cast for anglers of all skill levels. The Z-Axis offers an entirely new level of fishability with unprecedented line feel, response and performance." How does Sage do it? Magic Replacing what is quite possibly the most popular fast action fly rod in the world takes a lot of ... well, research and development. It also takes something so good you can confidently move forward without a backward glance. In short, it takes a fly rod with nearly magical properties. So, how did we create a rod that's significantly lighter, stronger and easier to cast for anglers of all skill levels? The answer, much to the marketing guys' dismay, isn't a simple buzzword or an easily described new material. In fact, the latest version of our Generation 5 (G5) Technology is defined by improvements across the entire rod-building process. To start with, our exclusive analysis software helped us to better evaluate the performance requirements of every inch of rod blank, allowing us to eliminate all unnecessary material. At the same time, we made significant advances in our Aligned Fiber Technology , which, most significantly, replaces traditional glass hoop fibers with lighter, more responsive graphite. This, of course, required us to develop new construction techniques to align and compress these rods for maximum strength. To take advantage of these developments, Jerry Siem went back to the drawing board (and out on the water) to create improved taper designs for each Z-Axis rod. The G5 process gave him an opportunity to reach previously unattainable levels of line feel, response and performance. It also allowed him to design rods that better fit the modern casting style, with the tip strength to bail you out on a missed stroke and the power to more easily punch flies into the wind. The result? An entirely new level of fishability. But don't just take our word for it! Take the Z-Axis out for a ride today. We're confident that you'll find it's the lightest, longest-casting, most accurate fast action fly rod you've ever tried. It might not be magic, but it's pretty darn close.

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. 2-WEIGHT This beautiful little rod was designed specifically for small stream dry fly fishing. 3-WEIGHT Our 3-weights are perfect for making gentle presentations to selective fish. Four lengths, from a 6’9” that\\\\'s great for Eastern brookies, to the very versatile 8’9”, a regular on rivers like the Henry’s Fork. 4-WEIGHT Versatile, all around rods that can handle virtually all trout water. Again, the smaller sizes are intended for Eastern or small brushy streams, while the longer rods are ideal for Western waters. 5-WEIGHT Big dries, small dries, nymphs, streamers, longer casts, gentle presentations, wind, whatever. This 5-weight can do it all. 6-WEIGHT An ideal choice for the larger rivers found out West, where you'll typically use a variety of flies and make casts of varying lengths throughout the day. --> Product Details Handle: Cigar.
