Description
Orvis Helios 4pc 5-weight 9' Fly rod with Mirage LT II Reel and a Hand Painted Grip from Tim Johnson - a $1900 value
The most accurate fly rods ever built. Helios 3F offers accuracy with enhanced feel and finesse. The Helios 3F 905-4 was designed to put an Adams in a teacup from 40 feet. The ultimate big river rod when delicacy and pin-point accuracy spell success. Matte Storm blank. Reel seat is type III anodized aluminum Midnight black w/ Matte Storm carbon insert. Green accent wrap. Black/gray main wraps. REC recoil snake guides. SiC/titanium stripping guides. Aluminum rod tube made in USA. No cast ever thrown is identical to any other cast ever thrown. The variables of caster, rod, and conditions are too great. Helios 3F was designed to significantly reduce the variables at the point of release focusing the energy of the cast to the intended target. No matter what happens behind you, the energy of the forward cast is crisply released through a tight window created by the most significant reduction in horizontal and vertical tip frequency ever conceived. It is a rifle in a world of muskets and it autocorrects the variables of the cast to the target with incomparable precision. Rod outfit includes: American-made Helios 3F 905-4 Fly Rod, American-made Mirage II in Pewter, American-made Hydros WF 5 Trout line,100 yds. of 20 lb Dacron backing, and American-made rod tube.
