New from Winston: Boron III X Super 10 Rods

Specialized Fly Rods for Nymphing

Winston Super 10

This new mini series of specialized nymphing fly rods consists of three 10-foot models (3, 4 and 5wt.). Each has been specifically designed for high sticking and European style nymph fishing. Our dynamic Boron III technology, combined with a longer length, progressive medium action and finely tuned rod characteristics, provides anglers with precise, delicate control of line, leader and fly placement. The new Boron III X Super 10 rods were designed with the versatility to handle a range of technical nymph techniques, double nymphs, weighted nymphs, strike indicators and light streamers. The rods feature our popular new “Shooting Guides,” with a new specialized down locking reel seat for optimum weight distribution and a 2˝ cork extension on the grip to reduce arm fatigue.

“I love the new Super 10s by Winston! This versatile 3,4,and 5wt ten-foot rod series has a tip sensitive enough for high stick euro nymphing, is strong enough in the butt section for lifting large trout, and at the same time, allows for ultimate control in still water settings.”  – Landon Mayer, Winston Pro Advisor
