Orvis Helios 3F 510-4

The Orvis Helios 3F 510-4 is a precision-tuned 5-weight fly rod built for anglers who demand finesse without sacrificing range or versatility. At 10 feet in length, it’s ideal for technical nymphing, long-distance mends, and delicate dry fly presentations on larger rivers. Engineered with Orvis’s Helios 3 technology, this rod delivers exceptional tip stability and minimal vibration, allowing for laser-accurate casts and superior control over complex drifts. Its medium-fast action offers a responsive feel that protects fine tippets while maintaining the backbone needed to handle strong fish and challenging currents.
Made in the USA, the Helios 3F 510-4 features a matte black blank, black thread wraps, and a comfortable half-wells grip, housed in a durable aluminum rod tube. Whether you're targeting selective trout in broad tailwaters or navigating tight feeding lanes with precision, this rod offers the perfect balance of sensitivity and strength. Presented in Like New condition, it’s a rare opportunity to own one of the most accurate fly rods ever built—while saving hundreds.
