Helios™ Fly Rods: The world’s lightest fly rod turns passion into addiction. Pick up a Helios, and you’ll be stunned by how light and balanced it is—a direct result of our patent-pending thermoplastic, thermoset resins used from tip to butt. The Helios loads quickly, is powerful, crisp, and light, and has a supremely balanced feel so you control your cast better.

The new patent pending 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.

Our best-selling saltwater flex profile for bones, reds, stripers, and larger freshwater species. Ice cleans out of Recoil guides quickly and easily. A real plus when steelheading or trout fishing in cold conditions.
