A nice RL Winston bamboo fly rod, 8', 3-piece, 2-tip, and built for a #4 line. Serial #4248. The rod weighs 4.6 ounces on my scale. Lawn cast only. Medium to medium fast action. Light tan color cane done in a three up node pattern configuration. Tan main wraps with cinnamon accents. Agate stripper and black snake brand guides. Superb varnish. 6 1/2" full wells grip with a hidden pocket cap. The reel seat is an uplocking nickel silver screwlock with a mortised west coast maple burl spacer. "RL Winston Rod Co" printed on the bottom cap. The rod packs into a white linen rod bag that has the Winston logo embroidered on the flap. The rod tube is a brown crackle paint with gold anodized cap and ring hardware and a 100% original Winston data sticker affixed to it.
