This model is perfect if you are looking for an all-round rod for river fishing or a very light inshore rod. This model is still light enough to provide a great experience when fishing with dry flies, but can already handle weighted streamers and sinking lines. The 9ft #5 is the classic all-round rod, whether you're fishing dry flies, nymphs or steramers. If you're looking for a lightweight all-round rod, consider the Orvis Helios 3D 9ft #4. It has enough finesse to cast small dry flies 5-10m upstream, but also enough power to cast smaller streamers effortlessly on a calm day on the coast. The 4-weight model is the perfect choice for light fishing in medium to large rivers, lakes or ultra-light inshore fishing. Due to its very fine and responsive tip section, this rod also works extremely well at short distances, but its very stable middle and lower sections allow you to make very long casts with incredible control and precision. In the right hands, this rod generates perhaps the highest line speed we have ever experienced without excessive power and effort. Get the most accurate fly rod in existence and land more fish on every trip.Definitely one of our favourite rods ever, the Helios 3D performs simply outstanding! Orvis have put a lot of thought and expertise into the material and taper design and you can really feel that when you pick up this rod, but even more so when you cast it for the first time. Whatever the location, whatever the fish, the H3D is ready for it: big rivers or saltwater, bonefish or bass-those accurate drops earn more bends in the rod, it’s as simple as that. Pushing through a gusty saltwater wind is no big deal-the Helios 3D has the power to get your fly there, and the accuracy to drop it right where you want it. The H3D rod churns out precise casts that are the stuff of legend-because it’s the pinpoint delivery of flies that takes you from a quiet day on the water to battling predator fish ripping down the flats. Increased hoop strength means reduced vibration for a crisp release every time because we know accuracy is paramount. We’ve reduced the variables at the point of release to focus the energy behind every cast. We designed the Helios 3D fly rod to cast at impressive distances without sacrificing power-and it hits the mark every time. To play the game at its highest level there can be no compromise and for every angler, the H3 is the pinnacle of purpose, designed to master the moment and meet the demands of accuracy on a spring creek with a 3F or a tarpon flat with a 3D. The difference is taper and stiffness, but the design foundation of accuracy remains constant. 3D is accuracy with power at distance for pinpoint delivery of larger flies. 3F is accuracy with finesse, a dry fly angler’s dream. Helios 3F and 3D each offer uncompromising purpose. The H3 brings us a fundamental shift from flex profiles to a new frontier in accuracy and purpose-driven design. Reflect on your greatest successes and failures as an angler and the answer is clear. Making a forty-foot cast on the nose of a laid-up tarpon is fishing. Making an 80-foot cast in saltwater is prospecting. Whether it’s the right drift in the feeding lane, the sightline of a cruising predator, or the right level of the water column, the difference between success and failure is often measured in inches.Īll modern fly rods are powerful, but accuracy is the new frontier in fly design. There is a famous quote by Wyatt Earp, “Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.” What anglers discover with experience is just that.
