This Orvis Helios (newest version) fly rod has been fished once or twice if even at all and its practically flawless condition shows that. Rod blank shows zero signs of use - cork handle is (maybe) just a hair darker than brand new. 9.9/10 overall.
Original Orvis rod tube and rod sock included.
We do not know if rod has been registered in regards to the warranty.
