mattk22 Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 I am debating between the two rods. Which do you guys like and why? I am looking for sensitivity.I would be getting a 7ft MH rod. Quote
Bass_Fanatic Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 Powell Go to thefishranger.com and they are only $109 Quote
nwmike Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 what are you going to use the rod for.if you are going to use it for a jig rod I would bump up to a heavy in the endurance line.I love powell rods but to me they fish softer than rated my max 703cef feels more like a medium.I do not have a mh rod in the endurance line but do own some 4 power rods that feel perfect for jigs and worming Quote
Arv Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 Don't think you can wrong with either. BUT. I love my Powells! With them on sale at fish ranger, you can't beat that deal. Quote
GoneFishi'n Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 I love my ducketts, I'm even getting another one soon. These rods are amazing. I mainly use them for jigs and bottom bouncing baits because they are really sensitive. And if you don't like the split grip, you can go to their website and get a full grip one. I don't know anything about the powells so I can't make a comment about them. Quote
Bass Junkie Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 I have not personally used a Powell, but I have used a Duckett, and really like it. It is light, sensitive, and I like the action of the rod. Quote

Virtuoso Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 The Duckett's actions are slightly slower in similar ratings. The Powell, in my hands, feels a tad more sensitive. It is really a draw in most other aspects. Quote
GeorgiaBassBros Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 no experience with the powell, but i absolutely love my micro magic! Quote
mattk22 Posted July 3, 2013 Author Posted July 3, 2013 I couldn't turn down the Powell's for $109 after reading all of their reviews. I will let you guys know what I think of them. Two tournaments in the next 15 days Quote
zildjian Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Cant go wrong with either company. I have both.. And two Duckett Micro Magics.. the Sensitivity of the micro magic rods are incredible and very light in weight. Quote
