Default FS: Winston BL5 10wt. 5-piece

The rod has only been lawn cast and is in mint condition. Of course,
Winston rod tube and sock are included. The rod goes for close to
$700, this one is $400 and includes shipping and insurance within the
U.S.

Thanks,
AJ

This is the softest 10 weight you can find today and if that is what you
want, it is a steal.

I don't mean to put down the Winston, a fine rod for sure and I would love
to own one, but why would you want a soft 10 wt? If for Kings, would I
really care about how delicate the presentation?

If it were a 5 or 6 wt I would jump on this deal.

A stiff 10 weight would wear you out.
