Orvis ZG Helios Saltwater Rods

A memorable gift of a lifetime, the Helios is the most raved about fly rod in years. Give one of just 250 Limited First-Edition fly rods made in each select Helios model for 2007. The ground-breaking Helios is the lightest fly rod out there, and the most talked-about fly rod of 2007.

The new Helios saltwater fly rod is so far ahead of all others it skips generations in how a fly rod should feel, cast, and fish. It is so sublimely light, incredibly responsive, deadly accurate, and just plain easy and enjoyable to cast that to compare it to other graphite saltwater fly rods is like comparing graphite to bamboo. There is no comparison. The Helios fly rod is that good. And everyone is noticing.

Only our next-generation of exclusive thermoset thermosplastic resin technology combined with an all-new steeper taper can create a fly rod so light yet strong enough to battle big fish and to handle hard fishing. Its superlight weight lets you fish harder longer. Woven carbon reel seat. Recoil guides to resist breakage. Handsome woven carbon fiber fly rod tube.
