Summary: I've been fly-fishing for over 25 years in Montana. After fishing a number of rods, I finally saved enough money to buy my 'perfect' Montana fly rod. After months of research, casting every rod from all of the namebrand manufacturers (as well as a couple of off-brands), I settled on a Winston 8'6" 5#, with a Ross G2 reel. After fishing it for hundreds of days, I couldn't be happier. I've now got 3 Winston's, 1 Orvis, a Sage, which should tell you what I think of Winstons. Bottom line, if you gave me an unlimited budget to spend on a single fly rod to use for the rest of my life and I was fishing for trout, I'd buy my exact same setup again, no questions asked. Everytime I hand my rod to companions and they fish with it for a few minutes, they marvel at how effortlessly it casts, and I find it difficult to get my rod back.
Customer Service: Awesome. I've broken my rod twice already (chucking buggers I've scored the blanks numerous times), and they've replaced the sections with no questions asked for no charge.

Summary: If you can find this rod, buy it. This is the rod I always use now.
I had used faster rods - this required some adjustment before I cast properly. Once you do adjust, you understand why Winston owners are so fanatical about their flyrods. This has now become my go-to rod for all situations.
