New 2008 Product
Introducing Winston's new fresh and saltwater Boron II-MX series of fly rods. MX stands for maximum, as in maximum power, distance and fish fighting capabilities. The 5 and 6 weights are slightly stiffer and faster than their Boron IIx counter parts; 7 through 12 weights are true "guns" that can sinking lines, big flies and adverse wind conditions. While all seven models feature faster actions and are capable of making long distance, 100+ foot casts, they will amaze you with their responsiveness and light weight. The rods come with a cork fighting butt and Winston's new double locking reel seat. Whether your're chucking 6" long "grocery" flies or battling fly rod humbling winds, a Boron II-MX will get the job done. Free Shipping in the USA
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.
