Gaelforce Equalizer 14-foot #9/10 4-piece

Across the pond, the 14-foot #9/10 has been described as the .30-06 of double-handed rods. Closer to home, we might describe a 14-foot #9/10 as the 20-bore of double-handed rods—a bore that patterns well for walk-up and driven birds at reasonable distances but may come up short on high pheasants. The 14-foot #9/10 salmon rod, like the 20-bore shotgun, is the master of this middle ground. Unless you fish the Ness or the Tay with regularity, the 14-foot #9/10 should probably be your first salmon rod.

The GAELFORCE Equalizer 14-foot #9/10 is an elegant and fluid performer. The rod leans towards a #9 rating with a GAELFORCE Equalizer ESH shooting head of 600 grains/39 grams, yet remains fully capable of its #10 rating with a GAELFORCE Equalizer Spey 54 or Equalizer Spey 63 line. This versatility combined with impeccable manners allow the GAELFORCE Equalizer 14-foot #9/10 to achieve the requisite distances on most salmon rivers with a minimum of fuss.

An ideal choice for the Spey or the Dee in the months of April and May, the GAELFORCE Equalizer 14-foot for #9/10 is equally at home on the Tweed at the back end of the season and on salmon rivers such as the Orkla in Norway and the Cascapedia in Canada when these rivers stabilize at midsummer levels during the months of July and August.

Utilizing the finest new graphite materials in the construction of the blank, the GAELFORCE Equalizer 14-foot for #9/10 allows the angler to fish “fine and far off” with ultimate precision. The strong tip and the deep progressive action—the signature flex of the Equalizer series—eliminate side deflection of the tip when lifting line from the water and provide maximum feedback when making a change of direction with a single spey or a snake roll.

The GAELFORCE Equalizer 14-foot for #9/10 features:

-the finest components sourced from around the world

-a matte green finish for maximum stealth with rich silver whippings

-Fuji stripping guides with hard chrome snake guides

-the finest AAAA-grade slim cork handles

-a superior-grade Alps Tri-Lock down-locking reel seat

-alignment dots for easy and accurate assembly and security

-a quality cloth bag and Cordura rod tube

Designed for the connoisseurs of fine fly rods with all the characteristics of true performance and efficiency.

The authenticity of the designs for practical everyday use is guaranteed. All GAELFORCE products have been thoroughly tested in real world situations by experienced anglers.

So, I have been looking at these rods for a couple years now and finally pulled the trigger. I had some reservations about paying for a rod from across the pond (I’m on the Great Lakes in the US) without trying it first. But I’m very very glad I did! Not going to lie, maybe the nicest rod I’ve ever casted! Tons of authority, yet you feel everything…….right down to the cork! I’m an average fisherman and a mediocre caster, but this rod makes it easy. I just went out and practiced for awhile with it, but you can tell this rod is a cannon. This was my first purchase and now I’m hooked………this will be more expensive than a drug habit, but I’m sure well worth it

This was my second attempt at getting a salmon rod. I had a bad experience with my first one, it was soft and did not like touch and go casts. A good friend turned me onto this equalizer and I have not looked back. At 14′ it is perfect for most of the gaspe salmon rivers. The 600 grain esh head matches perfectly and casts like a dream. I love the grip it is longer in the bottom and tapered which allows me to get my bottom on fully on there. The top grip is thin which allows for a lot of feel and a more relaxed grip. The reel seat holds very well and will not come lose in my experience. The action really helped me progress in my casting. You can add a lot of power to the cast with this rod and it dose not fold on the cast. It is a joy to cast on day on a salmon river of medium size and I believe anyone who has the pleasure to cast one or fight a fish on one will soon have their own!
