R.L. Winston has been making best-in-class fly rods since 1929. After decades working with bamboo, fiberglass, and traditional graphite, Winston introduced their first 2 groundbreaking boron/graphite composite fly rods, BL5 and XTR, in 1994. This led to the hugely successful BIIx series and subsequest rods built ith their boron/gtaphite compiste. Winston quality, performance, workmanship, and aesthetics are unmatched in the mainstream fly rod industry.

Taking out a lifetime membership with fly rod helps NFC raise money while giving you a state of the art fly rod. Lifetime memberships with an R.L. Winston rod comes with a, “NFC” inscribed modern boron/graphite fly rod. Options available for Small Stream (273-4 Pure 2), Freshwater (590-4 Air 2) and Big Game (890-4 Air 2 Max). Comes with your choice of one of two Lifetime Member hats, an NFC Lifetime Member decal, brochure, and digital newsletter.

NFC uses memberships as a way for you to show your support for what we do and help fund native fish conservation initiatives. If you want to be involved in day-to-day operations or decision making, please contact us about a possible Board or Advisory Council position in your respective state. Rods are shipped from Montana. Thank you for the support.

Special thanks to R.L. Winston for working with us to make this happen. Please support them as they have supported wild native fish and NFC.
