The Big Game Series Orvis Helios fly-fishing rods are designed to handle the largest, toughest fish in salt or fresh water-from tarpon and marlin to muskies and king salmon. The incredible accuracy of these rods will help you put even giant flies right on target, giving you the best chance for the right presentation that will result in a hook-up. And once you’ve got the fish on the line, the Helios fly rod offers the muscle to turn the fish’s head and the confidence to bring it to the boat.
Whether you’re heading to Baja to test yourself against some of the toughest fish in the ocean or traveling to Alaska for 50-pound salmon fresh from the ocean, you can feel confident that your Big Game Series Helios fly rod will be up to the task. With more bend and backbone, the all-new Helios is 25% stronger than its predecessor, far surpassing previous generations and the competition, pushing the boundaries of durability. Increased travel distance (ability to bend deeply) means more lifting power when a fish runs under the boat or thrashes at the net, allowing you to fight those last moments with confidence. As the saying goes, don’t bring a knife to a gun fight; make sure you’ve got the best tool for the job.
