Winston Pure Fly Rod

When you day dream of delicate presentation trout fishing, where does your mind wander? Some might imagine casting yellow humpies, stimulators, and Royal Wulffs on their favorite freestones.

Some might imagine undercut banks, beaver ponds, and giggling riffles on a secret cutthroat “crick.” Some might imagine a large pod of picky spring creek rainbows dimpling PMDs on a slow-moving current’s surface.

If these are your daydreams, we encourage you to explore our all-new Pure series of trout rods.

Pure feel. Pure Presentation. For those who prefer to fish with a light touch.

Featuring our Boron III technology, our new PURE rods load deeply into the rod providing more feel. These rods feature an ultra-sensitive tip that present delicately and protect the smallest
of tippets when fishing to larger, more selective fish.

WEIGHTS: 2 thru 5wt.
ACTION: Medium
SECTIONS: 4
GUIDES: Chrome nanolite stripper guide/chrome plated, light wire snake guides REEL SEAT: Nickel Silver with figured Maple insert

STORAGE: Premium graphite rod tube with logo rod sock

“The news that Winston developed a new selection of light-line rods, The PURE series (2- to 5-weight), instantly caught my attention because many Winston rods already seem to me light-line-ish, with the feel of rods rated for a line weight less. So I was curious about what these new models would feel like. Based on the 8' 4-weight I field tested, the PURE delivers pretty much what you’d expect—the light, fluid, responsive feel of a Winston. Only more so.”  Ted Leeson, Fly Fisherman Magazine

    Winston steps up with the Pure

    I have fished Winston rods for a long time, starting with the WT model back in the day (which is still the standard for moderate action graphite rods, in my opinion). I was not a big fan of either the B2X or the B3X (flex not right, not enough power), which is one reason I started fishing Scott rods, the Radian on western rivers. This Pure, though, is a great rod. It has enough butt-end stiffness to generate line speed when you need it, not just the 'delicate presentation' advertised. Light in hand and accurate, very responsive to a light touch, smooth stroke. I bought the 8' 4-weight to fish eastern streams, casting smaller flies, shorter distances but it can handle heavier duty, throw as much line as you like. Excellent upgrade to the Winston line.
