RL Winston Bamboo Fly Rod 7'6" 2/2 #4/5

1603


A nice RL Winston bamboo fly rod, 7'6", 2-piece, 2-tips and built for what feels to me like a #4 or #5 line. Serial #2458 from the Brackett era. 3.6 ounces in weight (the stated weight on the rod is 3.6 ounces, but Winston's stated weights on rods did not include the weight of the reel seat). Mild signs of use with a bit of grip soiling. Medium fast action. Wheatstraw tempered cane done in a three up node pattern. Light yellow or tan main wraps with cinnamon edges at the keeper, ferrules, and tip-tops. The stripper is a #10 SRMC carbide and the snake guides are chrome along with the tip tops. The grip is 6" long and turned in a western profile. The reel seat is an all aluminum downlocking screwlock with a pocket cap. The rod packs into a red cloth bag and a leather rod tube. The owner's name is stamped on the leather tube.

Shipping Information
We ship at cost to the buyer and in the majority of cases do so via UPS with full insurance and signature. There are cheaper options but our experience has been that you get what you pay for and that it's not worth taking risks when shipping what are often one-of-a-kind items. Your shipping estimate will be calculated at checkout and if you have any questions please contact us. Please note the buyers are responsible for any applicable import duties or fees that may levied. Due to the importance of packing items carefully please allow up to two weeks for arrival (depending on how busy we are) though we certainly do our best to get items to you as expeditiously as possible.
Other Terms
Unless otherwise noted, all items come with a 3-day inspection period during which they can be returned to us for a full refund (provided that they are in the same condition in which they left our shop). Return shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. If an item is returned, we will issue a refund within 10 days upon receipt. Refunds will be either administered by providing a check or, when possible, by canceling a credit card purchase.
