RL Winston Prototype Switch Rod 10' 3/1 #8 8'1" The handwritten script over aAn unusual RL Winston prototype bamboo switch rod, 10', 3 piece, 1 tip, and built for a #8 line. The serial number is "3226 Proto" which is marked on the butt section along with the maker's mark and the rod specs. Brackett era rod. It looks to have been little used.
