New for the season, the Winston Air 2 Fly Rods represent the very best in fly rod design after more than 88 years of rod making. The first thing you notice when you pick up the Air is how light this rod is. This is due to the new S-2000 carbon fiber technology and the new HSR resin for a lighter, faster recovery rate while casting. These rods have the broadest casting range of any fly rods Winston has ever designed. The AIR 2 can do anything – present tiny dry flies to wary trout on flat water, cast a heavy streamer to the far bank in the wind, launch the entire line when you need it, and make quick, accurate close-range shots. From high stick nymphing, pounding the banks from the boat, or wet wading, the new AIR 2 is a pack rod, a travel rod, a beautiful rod, and an all-around rod.
This Winston AIR 2 486-4 fly rod is simply the finest all-purpose 4wt trout rod on the market. This 4wt AIR 2 delivers buttery smooth power and is a true pleasure to cast. This Air 4wt presents a beautiful dry fly, whether it is 20ft or 60ft, and will still throw a nymph rig or small streamers. This versatile 4wt will do it all on small to medium size rivers.

NEW! BAUER RVR 4/5 FLY REEL
NEW RIO PREMIER GOLD FLY LINE (WF3-WF9)The
Bauer RVR Fly Reel fishes as stellar as it looks, and looks stellar as
it fishes. New for the season, Bauer introduces the high performance RVR
high performance fly reel. In
development for two years, Bauer started with a groundbreaking and
beautifully modern design and quickly found out how challenging it was
to machine a reel this complex. No one had never seen anything like it.
The complexity and double anodized design of the RVR would prove too
difficult to achieve on a conventional 3-Axis machine, so Bauer sought
out the newest 5-Axis machines available. Bauer with the RVR series
continues the long tradition of design evolution, precision engineering,
and unmatched performance of fly reel when compared to others on the
market. Bauer, smoothest reels in the world!
The drag
and weight of this 4/5 reel have been appropriately designed for the
more sizeable trout, larger water, longer casts and more varied
techniques associated with 4 and 5wt rods. Whether you’re fishing a
floating line or a light sink tip, whether fishing dries or wets, this
is the ideal reel.
REEL FEATURES:
- Diameter: 3.54"
- Weight: 4.9oz
- Line Wt: 4/5
- Capacity: WF5+ (75yards of 20lb)
Improved
for 2020! The RIO Gold has been the go-to trout line around the world
for many years, and for a multitude of fly fishers. The line has a long
head and back taper that give casters total line control and stability
at range - whether casting or mending. The unique profile is designed to
load a fly rod at close range, and has a front taper that delivers
perfect presentation of flies between sizes #22 and #2.
RIO
enhanced the performance of this wonderful trout line by building it
with SlickCast - RIO's proprietary coating technology. SlickCast creates
the slickest, most durable fly lines on the market. Lab tests show that
lines built with SlickCast have the least amount of friction ever
measured in a fly line. The RIO Gold is the ultimate all round, floating
line for the trout fly fisher.
LINE FEATURES:
- Dualtone: Marks the sweet spot of a fly line by providing an obvious color change in the line at the sweet spot.
- Easy ID: RIO’s printed line marking system that allows anglers to quickly and easily identify each line.
- Front Welded Loop: A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the front of the fly line for fast rigging to a leader.
- Back Welded Loop: A neat, bulletproof loop welded at the end of the fly line for fast rigging to backing.
