Our Thoughts: The 8'6" 3wt Winston Air 2 is an ideal creek and technical dry fly rod. The 3wt is short and soft enough to get through every nook and cranny on a creek, but still the ample amount of reach to present accurately to rising fish on bigger waters. Some might not like the 3wt thinking its too weak to fight bigger fish, but because this blank is extended out to 8'6" the butt section is much thicker. This thicker butt section allows you to fish any fish that's willing to eat a dry fly. Here's What Winston Has To Say: This flagship series covers your 3wt. thru 6wt needs and has earned rave reviews from shop owners, guides, and anglers. Utilizing boron technology, AIR 2 rods make beautiful, accurate casts at long and short distances and have exceptional feel. The 3 and 4wts are superb dry and light nymph rods, while the 5 and 6wts are true all-arounders that can do everything from small dries to double nymphs to streamers. All rods come with our graphite tube and logo rod sock.
