Boron is five times as strong and twice as stiff as steel, yet lighter than aluminum; it lets us add 25% more strength to graphite while significantly reducing weight. Our Boron IIx rods take full advantage of this material's amazing properties and have redefined the fast-action category. They are responsive, powerful, highly accurate fly rods with a very wide casting range.
Whether it's gentle presentations up close or long casts of 100 feet, a Boron IIx can do it all. Incredibly light, these rods are a pleasure to cast all day, even the 10- and 12- weights. Cast one today. You will be amazed.

"The versatility of my Winston BIIx 8'6" 4-weight makes it my rod of choice for most of my Rocky Mountain fishing adventures. Delicacy when I need gossamer presentations to educated spring creek rainbows, and enough backbone to punch holes in the afternoon wind on big brawling freestones."
David Hulsey, Fly Fishing Guide, R.L. Winston Pro Staff Member

"My favourite Winston Boron IIx is the 8' 1/2" 5-weight. Extremely light, powerful, and sensitive - it can do it all. Casting streamers, dry flies, or nymphs with exceptional accuracy, this rod is the best!"
Colin McKeown, Host of FFF Fly Fishing TV Show, The New Fly Fisher
