Orvis Helios Small Stream Fly Rod Overview

The Small-Stream Presentation Series in the new Helios line of Orvis fly-fishing rods offers the perfect tools for those anglers who love to cast in small, out-of-the-way streams for unpressured fish. The Green Mountains near Orvis headquarters in Vermont feature some spectacular fishing for native brook trout and wild browns on streams you can practically jump across. You need a fly rod that can hit the target, whether you’re trying to cast 10 feet or 40 feet, without getting caught in overhead limbs or bushes. For those who love blue-lining-which refers to looking for new small trout water on a map and then exploring it to see what it holds-these Helios fly rods are just the ticket, no matter what part of the country you fish.
Many of us are lucky enough to live in places where small streams are full of wild trout flow, and can indulge our passion away from the crowds. Casting a dry fly while wet-wading on a mountain trout stream can be heaven, especially when you’ve got the right fly rod in your hand. An angler can get lost in the rhythm of working from pool to pool, covering the water, and trying to make accurate casts and good drifts.
And that moment when a trout smashes your fly is always a thrill, even if it’s the twentieth time that day. Finally, holding a brightly colored trout-with its gorgeous colors and markings-completes the experience.
Small-Stream Presentation Series Helios fly rods are available in line weights 2, 3, and 4. They feature a super-comfortable 6.5-inch Half Wells grip, gorgeous wood reel-seat inserts, and top-of-the-line hardware. You can stay on the water all day, and although your legs may be tired from hiking and wading, your casting arm will be ready for more.
Made in the U.S.A at our Manchester, Vermont, rod shop.
