This ORVIS HELIOS-3f fly rod is a thing of beauty. With 4wt line weight and 9’ft length, it's perfect for any fly fishing enthusiast. The rod is designed with a fast action and power, making it a great choice for catching larger fish! The tube did get scratched up during shipping. Will ship with insurance and signature required! Made up of 4 pieces, it's easy to transport and store. The rod is branded by Orvis and is modelled as HELIOS-3. With all these features, this fly rod is a must-have for any angler. The F stands for finesse, so this is a great all-around Rod, which is great if you need to get away with lighter tippet, this will give you some protection when fighting bigger fish with lighter tippet! It has more bend in the rod than than the D series, which is all about power and distance. Feel confident in buying! I have fast shipping and typically can get the rod to your door in 3 to 6 business days! THANKS JASON
