Orvis Helios 3D 905
9' 5 weight, 4 piece fly rod
The Orvis Helios 3D 905 is a lightweight, fast-action fly rod that falls under the “high-performance” label applied to modern rods. Quick recovery speed and hoop stability translate to intuitive accuracy through tight loops and high line speeds. The 905 D Helios 3 is a “caster’s rod” that works great as a primary rod for fishing the rivers around Bozeman. It is an exceptional choice for fishing big dries like Salmonflies and Hoppers on the Madison and Yellowstone rivers with short, heavy leaders.
The Helios 3D fly rods from Orvis are purpose-built to deliver accuracy at distance in the most technical of situations. Lightweight blank designs ensure feel throughout the casting stroke to enable the angler to keep tight loops for pinpoint accuracy. Increased hoop strength is the key component tot the intuitive accuracy that comes with the H3D series.
