Boron IIx Rods

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 has changed everything. 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. This makes for very pleasant, all-day casting, even with the 10 and 12-weights. We urge you to cast a Boron IIx rod today. You will be amazed.

Why Boron?

Winston first started using boron/graphite composite in 1997. It's an unusually strong material with a very quick recovery rate and is ideal for designing rods that can generate extremely high line speeds. Boron IIx is the second generation of this composite, and the features of this new material have allowed us to create the most advanced fly rods in the world. They have all the strength and power of boron, while being very lightweight and offering the rare ability to fish at close, medium or long distances with equal aplomb.

Boron IIx Rod Descriptions:

3-Weight

An extraordinary lightweight, fast-action spring creek rod that will make effective fly presenations at all distances.

4-Weight

Powerful enough to handle larger rivers, with the delicacy needed for spring creeks and other technical waters.

5-Weight

All around, high-performance 5-weights. Dries to streamers, small streams to freestones.

6- Weight

A great nymph and streamer rod, yet versatile enough for gentle presentations up close.

7-Weight

Perhaps the finest dry fly steelhead and salmon rods made today.
