Powell Nusance rods

Cant find much info on these. Has anyone tried one? Not an sk2 reel seat fan and that color is blah. Wish theyd make an Endurance 3d or something

Other than the reel seat what do you dislike about their rods?  Have you put a reel on one?  Check out the Inferno series.   They run very close to the same price as the Nusance rods but have their own cool look to them. I own one of the older Max series rods and that thing is a workhorse.  It is a Max 683CEF   The newer Max 3D are just an upgrade to my rod. Go read the Tackletour review of that rod. They were spot on. I use it for many things but mostly bottom contact baits and it is very light and sensitive.

I've had my eye on those new nusance rods but I passed because I thought they would just be a nuisance.

Nothing against their rods i own an original max 683,a diesel and endurance. Just wish theyd go back to the ecs reel seat for one thing. Also the nusance spinning rod is a nice blue color. Wish theyda done that with the casting models

What an odd name for a product.  Don't care for the green color either.  Haven't had a chance to see these in person yet.  There's plenty of makers out there using the ECS seat.

I know this is old but I had to try one. Sportsman’s has them on sale now. 59.99. Anyways, this is one stiff rod. I got the 7’6 for swim baits, and frogging. The “trigger” or part where you rest your pointer finger is way too short. All in all, once you get to the 7’6 length expect this type of action. All of my rods at that length have the same stiffness and action. Personally, I won’t purchase another 7’6.

I wish they never discontinued the diesel series

I purchased the spinning rod for $50 during a Tackle Warehouse closeout. It's a nice little rod. Not as sensitive as my Powell Max but it's close.
