Helios 3F 4-Weight, 9′ Fly Rods offer enhanced accuracy and feel at mid-range distances. The Helios 3F 904-4 is for those who love light-line fishing on big water. Whether western rivers or big still waters, the 3F 904-4 can present dry flies with the delicacy of a natural, throw streamers to a cut bank with deadly accuracy, and has the reach, feel, and control to handle light nymphing rigs. A remarkable all-around trout rod that allows you to cover a lot of water, but do it with the enhanced accuracy and precision that ultimately is the key to success. No cast ever thrown is identical to any other cast ever thrown. The variables of caster, rod, and conditions are too great. Helios 3F was designed to significantly reduce the variables at the point of release, focusing the energy of the cast to the intended target. No matter what happens behind you, the energy of the forward cast is crisply released through a tight window created by the most significant reduction in horizontal and vertical tip frequency ever conceived. It is a rifle in a world of muskets and it autocorrects the variables of the cast to the target with incomparable precision. Proudly made in Manchester, Vermont, USA.

Shop Staff Notes:  The Orvis Helios 3F 9′ 4-weight Fly Rod is probably the finest dry fly rod we have ever fished! This is a perfect rod for the Missouri but also an excellent tool for the Blackfoot and Smith. The 9′ rod in a 4 weight gives you better casting control and much better mending control. This rod feels so comfortable to cast. It has enough reserve power to fish it with a 5 weight line if you like to fish close or want the rod to load deeper to help punch into the wind. I have also enjoyed fishing nymphs with this rod because it offers so much tippet protection -your little #20 Zebra Midge will have a better chance staying planted than if you use a faster or heavier rod.

We also carry the more powerful Orvis Helios 3D 9′ 4-weight Fly Rod for those that like throwing bigger bugs or fishing further out on bigger water.

H3D or H3F? – Trying to decide between a Helios 3D and her sister, the Helios 3F?  Here is a nice, short video from our friend, Shawn Combs (the Product Developer for Orvis -not the Hip-Hop artist, P-Diddy -though we’ve heard Orvis-Shawn lay down some mean rhymes after a couple of beers at OGR!):  Orvis – Helios 3 Fly Rod – How to Decide Between D and F Version.
