The New Orvis Helios 2 - The Second Coming!

Coming soon to GAC, the new Orvis Helios 2 rods are the biggest thing to come from Orvis since, well, the Helios! Pre-order yours today and be one of the first lucky anglers in the UK to own a piece of Orvis history!

The Helios 2 is a featherlight war club that defies the laws of physics and has the backbone of an I-beam. Lighter in the hand and 20% stronger than any rod Orvis has ever developed, it transitions energy directly from your brain to the fly and casts with the precision of a laser pointer. Made by hand in the Orvis rod shop in Vermont, it’s a fly rod built by anglers who fish on their way home from work, anglers with sunglasses-shaped tan lines, anglers who tie blood knots in their sleep.

Orvis have made this rod for fishing addicts just like us!



Featuring all-new tapers fine-tuned to transfer energy along a smoother curve, the Helios 2 offers unrivaled tracking, accuracy, and additional lifting power while maintaining tippet protection. Built with a proprietary material integrated into the tip, the Helios 2’s impact strength is 100% stronger, the dampening has increased, and the swing weight has been reduced by 20% from the original, bestselling Helios. Finished with striking midnight blue blanks, accenting wraps, crushproof REC Recoil® guides, REC California buckeye burl freshwater reel seats, REC woven graphite saltwater reel seats, black nickel skeletons, super-grade cork handles, and a UV-inhibiting paint coating, the Helios 2 is the finest fly rod Orvis has ever produced and is sure to receive rave reveiws the world over.
