RL Winston Fly Rod 7'9" 3/2 #4 3-piece This is a must-have resourceA nice RL Winston bamboo rod, 7'9", 3 piece, 2 tip, built for a #4 line. Serial number 4295, just after the Brackett era. Medium fast action. The inscription on the rod shaft gives the weight as 3 ounces but my scale has it at 4. 3. Mint condition, with no grip soiling or brassing to the inner guides. The cane color is a light wheatstraw in the three up node configuration. Wraps are light brown with maroon edges at the keeper, ferrules, and tip tops.
