Orvis Helios 3F 5wt 10’Ft Fly Rod - Excellent Condition!! 

Originally purchased last Fall, fished maybe 3-4 times since then.  The extra reach makes this 10' fly rod both fun to cast and easy to mend, especially on big water/larger rivers.  Swings flies with ease.  Excellent condition - not registered - comes with rod tube and sock.  Only selling because I'm interested in a dedicated trout spey rod.



Description

Incredible power, deadly accuracy, and impressive feel are part and parcel of our Helios 3F fly rods. Not only have we built a super light weight rod in the Helios 3, but it also offers a crisp feel in hand for an unbeatable casting experience. Accuracy is important. Hurling a fly across the water and hoping for a strike won’t win any trophies—it’s those accurate drops that bring in the real prize. The difference in a couple of inches can make or break a catch. The Helios 3F reduces the variables and harnesses the energy behind each cast for enhanced accuracy, so you can reach the far bank and drop a fly with precision every time. We’ve checked unbeatable accuracy and power off the list, but the H3F also delivers the finesse required to delicately drop a fly without spooking fish, and it has plenty of backbone to haul in the big fish of your dreams without flinching. Whether you’re chasing bonefish on the flats or casting streamers to the far bank, the Helios 3F offers the outstanding casting performance and responsiveness you need to land more fish.
