Powell 804 CEF

Featured Replies

I am a big fan of Powell rods and own many.  I have been looking at the Powell 804 CEF and was wondering if anyone has any input on it?  I have been using the 764 for jigs and worms in 15' and find it just a little to soft for me on a long cast.  I own almost all of the rods available and want to know how the 804 compares. 

do u own all of the powell max rods i m looking at the Powell Casting Rod 6'8" Medium EF 682C and the Powell Casting Rod 6'8" Med Hvy EF 683C and was wondering which one would be better for small jigs like 1/4 and up to 3/8s ounce

I dont own all the rods. I own rods 7' and up only.  I use the 765 for my jigs.  I would suggest the 683.  I like heavier rods with a lot of back bone.  I own the 7' mh ef and have not really thrown jigs with it.  As a reference I have a couple 764s and have bent the regular EWG Gamas with the rod using mono on long casts.  Now I mostly use the super line hooks.  As I said I like heavy rods even with big line and light baits.  When I set the hook I think I almost kill the fish lol.  I am not much for the lite wire stuff although most of my bass fishing has been with lite wire shakey heads and spinning gear in the past.
