“After two years of design work with our new amazing Boron III material, utilizing entirely new patterns, we are very excited about our new Winston Boron III ~SX fast action rod series. This is an entirely new, full line series, ranging from 4-weight freshwater rods right through to 12-weight saltwater rods. Receiving the IFTD Best of Show award in the saltwater fly rod category is a wonderful acknowledgement of the successful teamwork that was implemented in this program. We tested the freshwater rods across the country, and the bigger rods spent considerable time in a variety of different saltwater locations with us and then and in the hands of a select group of highly accomplished outside advisors. Everyone in the Winston family is very proud to have received this award and excited to offer this great rod series to the world of fly fishing.” – Annette McLean and the Winston Rod Design Team
