Why would we take the world's best fly rod and change it? The answer is simple. We're driven by constant improvement. Put this rod in your hands and feel the rush. You'll completely understand.
It's built for throwing heavy streamers from a drift boat, yet it excels on the bonefish flats of Eleuthera. It's designed to handle big nymph rigs, yet places hoppers within inches of the bank. It's the Helios 2 6-weight 9' fly rod, and it's pleased to meet you. Light and agile, with reserve power in spades, this big-game H2 6wt. with a fighting butt will stare down stripers, steelhead, bass, and bonefish without the slightest hesitation. You'll be glad it's on your side. Proudly made in Manchester, Vermont, USA.
