Orvis is the biggest American brand for fly fishing! Charles F. Orvis founded the company in 1856 in Vermont, and a large portion of the products are still designed and manufactured in the United States. Fly fishing is a way of life, Orvis is an institution within it and is exported around the world. Through its network of guides, stores, fishing schools, media, the quality of Orvis products and services is internationally recognized. The large number of products created for a fly fisherman to have a "Lifestyle" in tune with his sport, is the measure of what the Americans can do for their passion. Perfection is the keyword for the designers at Orvis! Imagine 1700 employees in the service of the establishment in various professions to design, develop and test the equipment and ensure maximum service with conclusive results. Like prestigious car brands, Orvis knows how to develop high-end products benefiting from innovative techniques in their design while paying attention to finishes. Nothing is left to chance in the choice of materials and in design. For innovations, the Orvis Trident rods had technical qualities acclaimed by the best casters on the planet before the 2000s because there are no parasitic vibrations that disturb the throws. Then successive generations of rods each marked history: TLS, T3, Power Matrix, Zero-Gravity... thanks notably to the use of a patented thermoplastic resin exclusive to Orvis. The brand overthrows the laws of physics in 2009 and cements its supremacy with the Helios range. Judged to be one of the best rods in the world, it is also the lightest on the market. The number of awards collected by Orvis is exceptional. The reels machined by the American company are definitely among the most popular. In addition to being beautiful objects, their technical properties make them indispensable companions for all fly fishing. The latest developments brought to the sealed water and dust brake systems led the Access, Hydros, and Mirage series to international popularity. From delicate low water conditions to the most extreme at sea, Orvis reels will overcome all fish. What could be more pleasant than to fight a trout with a reel as fluid as it is robust? What could be more important than being able to rely on a well-set brake when a bonefish starts a lightning quick run? Trust in the equipment is a guarantee of success! Finally, the lines developed by Orvis for years are, again, always at the cutting edge. The famous self-lubricating "Wonderline" coating has won over tens of thousands of fishermen around the world. Always evolving, Orvis hit a home run in 2013 with the purchase of the famous brand Scientific Anglers. The expertise of this internationally renowned firm combined with the constant concern for improvement of Orvis designers surely guarantee beautiful evolutions to come on lines, nylons and tippets.
