Winston Pure 2 Single Handed Fly Rod

The PURE 2 Series from Winston sets new standards in modern rod building and gracefully follows in the footsteps of its predecessor. With eight models in line weights #2 to #5, this series was specifically developed to meet the challenges of demanding trout and fine salmonid fishing. Whether on large tailwaters, crystal-clear spring creeks, or enchanting streams – the PURE 2 offers you absolute precision, an incredibly smooth casting feel, and the legendary Winston action that anglers have loved for decades.

Thanks to the new NanoParticle Graphite Technology, the rod excels particularly in the areas of sensitivity, precision, and responsiveness. The innovative material design ensures even power transmission, increased break strength, and exceptional control. The characteristic Winston action reaches a whole new level, combining feel, stability, and lightness in a slightly slimmer blank with reduced swing weight. Pure enjoyment – whether casting, fishing, or battling a fish!

The PURE 2 Series was specifically designed for precise trout fishing with dry flies and nymphs. It truly shines in these disciplines: delivering extraordinary feedback both during the cast and under load. The progressive Winston action, combined with a more responsive recovery, allows for impressive precision – even at longer casting distances.

The technology of the Pure 2 at a glance:

• NanoParticle Double Bond: Optimizes load distribution for consistent and intuitive casting characteristics.
• 24% more break strength: Provides additional security during the fight and more reserves when dealing with strong fish.
• Thinner blanks: Improve recovery power and allow for precise presentations, both on short and long distances.
• Optimized stability: For pinpoint control and effortless loop formations.
• Lightweight construction: Reduced resin content provides a livelier, more responsive casting feel and increased comfort during long fishing days.

In short: With the Winston PURE 2, you’ll experience a casting feel like no other. From soft, precise short-distance casts to elegant long presentations, the rod excels in its versatility. It impresses especially at medium distances and surprises with its performance even in casts beyond the 20-meter mark. Despite its power, it remains light and responsive – a decisive advantage during long fishing days.

Whether stalking trout in small streams or casting on large rivers with plenty of room to enjoy every cast – the Winston PURE 2 makes every cast a memorable experience. It stands for true craftsmanship, the highest quality, and the long-standing Winston tradition – masterfully combined with the latest rod building technology and finesse. A perfect synergy of technology and tradition, rarely found elsewhere.
