NEW! WINSTON ALPHA+ 990-4 FLY ROD : 9WT, 9'0"
The New Winston Alpha+ Fly Rods are vastly different than your typical Winston fly rod. The Winston Alpha+ is the fastest, stiffest, most powerful rod Winston has ever designed. The Alpha+ is specifically made to fight the biggest fish in your waters. Think big flies, windy conditions, large predators, and powerful long casts in any condtions. Alpha+ series rods range from a powerful 5wt for larger trout up to a 12wt to battle larger Tarpon, Giant Trevally, Roosterfish, Mahi-Mahi, Peacock Bass, and Golden Dorado. The Winston Alpha+ rods feature a wicked fast-action taper for aggressive rigs, including big flies, heavy lines, shooting heads, and sinking tips. The Winston Alpha+ will pick up the entire fly line with one back cast and make quick one shot placements precisely where intended.
The Winston Alpha+ 9wt 9'0" is a powerful all around saltwater flats fly rod for targeting bonefish, permit, redfish, and snook. Many anglers feel that a 9wt on the flats can target mores species, cast longer distances, and deliver better presentations during inclement weather than a 8wt. This Alpha+ will power tight loops in windy conditions, turn over flies at longer distances to fish cruising flats, and have the lifting power to bring intermediate and sinking tip fly lines off the water for easier casting. Pair this Alpha+ 8wt with saltwater lines like the RIO Outbound Short, Scientific Angler Titan, Airflo Tropical Punch lines for best performance.
Winston Alpha+ Fly Rods have a designated grain window for each model to help anglers sort through the wide offering of overweighted lines available on the market today. Simply match the fly line grain weight range to the appropriate Alpha+ rod model to suit your needs and fishing style. Winston Alpha+ Fly Rods have extra reinforcement throughout the blank for the ultimate lifting power, the ability to turn fish from cover, and support effortless all-day casting with big flies and heavy fly lines.
