Email sent to Winston: I'm inquiring about an old Winston bamboo rod that I inherited from my wife step grandfather George Deraimer. It's a 9' 5 3/4oz, serial # 5953. Can you tell me more about it, weight line, year built, etc. The rod sock has the San Francisco label for R.L.Winston. Also if you are able to give an approximate value, it's still all original with sock and tube and has been fi...shed, but still in good to very good condition. I don't fish it and it's just lying around so I'm thinking of selling it. If you have an idea on the best way to sell it, that would also be helpful.Email from Winston:Thanks for your email. Your rod was built on 8/2/1945, most likely by Lew Stoner. It will be rated for 8/9 weight line, so it'll be a decent streamer / steelhead Rod.Value is probably around $700-$1500.
