Details
The Helios 3F rods ("F" for Finesse or Feel) with a fast, progressive action are designed for very precise and delicate presentations at consistent fishing distances (from 5 to 20 meters). The matte blank is a dark gray "storm" color to eliminate glare. In fly fishing, success often hinges on a few centimeters, and this rod reduces all vibrations for extreme casting accuracy. Perfectly suited to various river fishing techniques, the Helios 3F proves formidable for dry fly and sight fishing with fine tippets. The smooth and precise action allows you to delicately place a fly under branches or target holding fish. Facilitating casting, the fishing comfort provided by the
Orvis Helios 3F
is unparalleled. Highly effective for technical casts and repositioning the line on the water, its action absorbs hooksets very well. The power reserve is ideal for fighting trout and grayling in European rivers. Delivered in a protective aluminum tube made in the USA, theHelios 3F 9' 5-weight 4-piece
is easy to transport, even in travel luggage. In the world of fly fishing, theOrvis Helios
rods have all marked a turning point in terms of technicality and performance. Lighter in the hand while gaining in strength, the 3rd generation of Helios rods is the result of five years of research and development. More than 60 combinations of different types of carbon graphite and resins were tested. But the work carried out was not limited to materials. The manufacturing methods have significantly reduced horizontal vibrations and vertical oscillations of the rod tip during the shot, which negatively impact casting accuracy and distance. Compared to the Helios 2 generation, the new manufacturing processes and materials used offer 17% greater torsional strength, 40% increased resistance to blank deformation, and 77% greater impact resistance. While being more durable, the Helios 3 also feels lighter in the hand and during casting. FEATURES:
