About Winston from their website:1970sThe 1970s were years of change at Winston. Tom Morgan purchased the company from Merrick, and a year later Glenn Brackett became a partner. In 1975, Winston began building rods from graphite and in '76, the decision was made to move the company from San Francisco to Twin Bridges, Montana in order to be near the world-class trout fishing on the Beaverhead, Big Hole, and Jefferson rivers. Today, Glenn Brackett makes masterful bamboo fly rods at his Sweetgrass Rods in Twin Bridges, Montana. ____________ read more
