Description: Here is a brand new, original ABEL 14-weight, 4-piece, 8' 9" fly rod. This is an ultra-high-quality rod. Steve was ahead of his time when he designed these rods. All ABEL fly rods were made at the ABEL factory... Made in the USA. He designed this rod to cast and fight the biggest fish you can catch on a fly rod. He's caught 90-pound Yellowfin Tuna, dozens of Striped Marlin, dozens of Sailfish, large Wahoo (world record Wahoo) on this model rod. The tip and mid-section allow you to cast large flies with ease. With the mid-flex action and strong butt section, you can really put pressure on those big fish. Steve says, "This is the strongest rod you can get." Features: *A blend of high and medium modulus graphite *Easy to cast mid-flex fast action *Silicon carbide stripping guide *Guides are perfectly spaced to reduce line slap that reduces both distance and accuracy *Butt section designed for powerful fish-fighting capability *Reel seats are designed, precision machined, anodized and fitted with milled knurled nuts so you will never have difficulty removing a reel, even after weeks in a saltwater environment *Winding checks and finish rings are machined from Delrin *Fitted with the highest-grade Portuguese cork handles *The first cork ring on the handle is an extremely lightweight cork-rubber composite that is comfortable, non-slip and crush proof. It will not disintegrate or degrade from thumb pressure. *Perfect size fighting butt *Line-up marks to make the assembly of the rod easy. White threads are woven into the black wraps on each side of the ferrule. *Fitted with slightly oversized guides for ease in shaking out line or to accommodate large knots The main grip is longer on this 14-weight so you can use both hands. It also has a helper handle that Steve says he uses for "just resting." Using both hands on the main grip and pulling from the side is how to put the most pressure on the fish.
