Description of the R. L. Winston Boron II MX - Rods: |
Winston's new fresh- and saltwater Boron II-MX series. The MX stands for maximum, as in maximum power, distance, and fish fighting capabilities. The 4-, 5-, and 6-weights are slightly stiffer and faster than their Boron IIx counterparts; the 7- through 12-weights are true "cannons" that can handle sinking lines, big flies, and adverse wind conditions. While all eleven models feature faster actions and are capable of making long distance, 100+ foot casts, they will amaze you with their responsiveness and light weight. The rods come with a cork fighting butt and our new double locking reel seat. Whether you're chucking 6'' long "grocery" flies or battling fly rod–humbling winds, a Boron II-MX will get the job done.
5-WEIGHT
The fastest-action 5-weight we've ever made. Ideal for trout, smallmouth bass and even summer steelhead.
6-WEIGHT
Whether you're streamer fishing for big browns or battling monster pike, this 6-weight is up to the task. Also very appropriate for steelhead, Atlantic salmon and schoolie stripers.
7-WEIGHT
A faster-action 7-weight that is perfect for making long casts to species such as bonefish and redfish, or throwing big poppers to snook and largemouth bass.
8-WEIGHT
The power and strength of this rod is remarkable. It can handle a 350-grain line with ease, making it a great, lightweight choice for stripers, Atlantic salmon and steelhead.
9-WEIGHT
An all-around, hardcore, saltwater rod that can handle a wide variety of fly lines. Perfect for bid striped bass, bluefish, false albacore, baby tarpon, king salmon, permit and more.
10-WEIGHT
An extremely powerful 10-weight that weighs in just over 4 ounces. The choice for big winds, big flies and fish like permit, giant trevally, tarpon and dorado.
12-WEIGHT
On days when the wind can discourage anglers from heading out, you;ll appreciate owning theis powerful, accurate 12-weight. The perfect rod for casting sinking lines at night to large tarpon or fighting marlin and sailfish.
