I purchased a Powell inferno in the fall and now I own 4.... We'll I own 4 at the moment,I will be purchasing more. Best bang for you buck,the rod is extremely light and sensitive. Best rod I've owned easily, it's not a 100$ throw away rod that's for sure, you won't regret purchasing one. And did I mention Powells warnty process and customer services? Oh we'll it's execpetion. Powell truly did a great job, no complaints.

If you like it that's all that matters.

Me too! From Loomis to Dobyns to Legend Elites. I love what Fenwick is doing right now. Got a few of the Elite Tech Smallmouth rods and since my first one, I have been averaging one of the new HMG's a week and watching the other rods go away. That is the best $100 rod on the market right now!

I've been meaning to get one..but I haven't decided yet if I want my next rod to be a NRX or HMG.  I have other stuff on my wish list so depending on which I buy, I either shorten or just knock 1 thing off my list.

Fenwick makes some nice rods in the 100 to 150 price range. But I would think if you buy the HMG as good as it is,,,,it's still nowhere near the over $400.00 NRX, and not even reasonable to compare the two. I know if I was torn between the two and got the HMG I am sure I would not get the NRX out of my mind and wouldn't rest well. It would just prolong the wait for the NRX???just say'n

Yeah you are probably right.  I'm so scared of buying my first NRX because as soon as I bought my first GLX I had to get 3 more.  :eyebrows:   That is why I have put it off to make the NRX jump

Yes, the parts are. But I think Powell uses their own graphite pre peg, where I'm sure Duckett is using a typical blank any rod builder can purchase

What blank are they using?
