Winston History 2004 – 2010

In the 2000s, Winston innovation became centered on boron/graphite composite, and a more responsive and dynamic second generation of this rod building material was utilized.

During this time, the phenomenally successful Boron IIX was introduced. These award-winning designs redefined the fast-action category by combining power and strength with accuracy, responsiveness and very light weight.

From AFS:

This rod has seen some use in the salt. The blank itself has no cracks or breaks and is in good shape but there are a couple of cosmetic features to note. There are marks where the ferrules come together. There is a tiny amount of rust in the epoxy on the bottom eyelet as well as on some of the S guides as is common with rods used in the salt. The rod sock as well as the blank of the rod has the name of the original owner on it. Original rod tube and sock as shown.
