Innovation meets tradition. The Boron IIt series proved that advanced boron technology could be used to create exceptional medium-action fly rods. With this series, R.L. Winston moved its proven, second-generation boron in a whole new direction, with extraordinarily lightweight rods that combine the powerful, highly responsive characteristics of Boron II with the legendary smoothness and delicacy of our more traditional-action rods. Winston fully recognize that many people enjoy fishing for trout with medium-action rods. The Boron IIt series is a true breakthrough for such anglers.
