Orvis Helios Switch Rods |
For the salmon and steelhead angler, the question has always been whether to use a two handed Spey rod or stick with a single-handed fly rod. The problem has always been, there is a place for both and the techniques they employ. Now thanks to Helios Graphite Technology and the ability to build incredibly light rods, there is an answer - the Helios Switch 118-4. Here is a fly fishing rod that is long enough to cast two-handed with its extended foregrip and interchangeable butt Spey butt section, but light enough with the conventional butt to be cast with one hand all day without fatigue. Your ability to cast precisely at short range and boom casts out at long range are both easily achieved with the new switch rod allowing you to use the best technique for the moment with just a quick switch of the butt section. There's nothing like it in the world and only Helios graphite makes it possible.
