Some waders offer camouflage, some are meant for the cold, and some have so many pockets you don't even need a gear bag. Out of all these type of waders there is one common problem, LEAKAGE. We've almost all experienced it. Its early in the morning and the water is below freezing, but you don't mind. Your waders are insulated so the cold isn't a problem.

Ovris is an American based fly fishing and hunting company that provides consumers with high end products that will last a lifetime. One of their best rod combos is the Helios 2. This rod comes in all weights and length. If I have to be honest the Helios two is simply unbreakable. I have personally seen fisherman take on a carp with the 2 weight without breaking a sweat. Orvis certainly took to time to test this rod and stretch it to its full potential. Although I might be a bit bias when it comes to the best rod brand, I can certify that Orvis is one of the best.

That coupled with the 25 year warranty that comes with your rod makes it the perfect rod for any situation.
