Our Thoughts:

The 10' 5wt Winston Pure is a great dedicated nymphing stick for all types of water. The wonderful aspect of this rod is it has a very soft tip and can protect the lightest of tippets, but has a ton of backend power to turn over heavy nymph rigs and thoroughly handle trout of all sizes. It's extended length makes mending and high sticking very easy, as well casting a country mile.

Here's What Winston Has To Say:

The PURE series (2-5wt) won IFTD’s Best of Show for freshwater rods in 2018, and for good reason: The ability of these medium-action rods to present flies in a delicate and accurate manner is unmatched, making them perfect for technical waters like the Henry’s Fork, spring creeks and backcountry beaver ponds filled with wary brookies. The 2 and 3wts are perfect for small streams, while the 4 and 5wts are ideal for larger rivers and fish that still require a light touch. All rods come with our graphite tube and logo rod sock.

2WT: Meant for casting microscopic dry flies on the lightest tippet, and bends into the butt section with the weight of a small trout.

3WT: Fun rods meant for small stream fishing. From the ultra-short 6’6” version to the 7’6″, these 3 weights will excel at any small stream or extremely delicate presentation.

4WT: If you’re obsessed with feeding small flies to picky fish, our selection of 4 weight PUREs blend accuracy, delicacy, and fish fighting strength. Think any spring creek from Paradise Valley, Montana, to the world renowned Driftless area in Wisconsin.

5WT: From dry fly fishing on bigger western rivers, to light nymphing and small streamers the 5 weight PURE will provide the classic Winston feel in a taper that adds more accuracy and line control.
