RL Winston Bamboo Fly Rod 8'6" 3/2 #6 2-piece The step-down ferrule fit isA nice RL Winston bamboo fly rod, 8'6", 3 piece, 2 tips, built for a #6 line. Serial #3027, a Brackett era rod dating to 1995. The lettering on the rod states the weight as 4 5 8 ounces but my scale puts it at an even 5.

Light tan wraps with dark maroon edges at the keeper,
