Powell Edge Fly Rod - 4-Piece, 9'
 
Fast Action but not durable
By Trout Slayer from Talachulitna River, AK on 08/28/2008
Pros:
Accurate Casting, Easy To Transport, Flexible
Cons:
Breaks Easily, Poor Construction
Best Uses:
Fly Fishing
Describe Yourself:
Avid Fisher
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments:
The 4 piece 8 weight rod performed excellently on 5-15 pound silver, pink and chum salmon for 14 straight days in Alaska, but on day 15 the second section of the 4 piece rod split where the first section is inserted leaving the rod useless. Either the rod had some defects or its not very durable. A rod of this size and expense should last a lifetime not two weeks.

The Tiboron and Tiboron II are excellent in 4 wt. 5 was good, too, but I broke mine and Powell does not repair this model. Instead, they sent their new model, which casts like a stick. Customer support is disappointing.

Good rod for the money
By StoneyVerified Reviewer from Eatonville, WA on 06/24/2008
Pros:
Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action
Best Uses:
Fly Fishing, Large Fish, Throwing large flies
Describe Yourself:
Avid Fisher
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
Got the 10 weight to use as a salmon and bass rod - would be an okay saltwater rod for the budget minded - pleased with the performance - not necessarily a true fast action rod but does have plenty enough backbone to throw large flies -which was my hope - 4 piece construction is a real plus for transportability - cheap cardboard case that came with the rod not suited for this however.

Middle of the Line Rod

Pros:
Easy To Transport
Cons:
Not a real fast rod

Comments:
Not as fast as I thought it would be. I bought 5 of these rods though from Sierra because you really can't beat the price. The 8 weight does not throw as far as I thought it would. The small 3 weight is really really nice. (The 6 foot 6 inch)

Nifty rod value
By AF SaintVerified Reviewer from Boston on 04/24/2008
Pros:
Accurate Casting, Durable, Easy To Transport, Good Tip Action, Sensitive
Best Uses:
dedicated trout rod, Fly Fishing, River Fishing
Describe Yourself:
Avid Fisher
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments:
This is a typically nice design from Powell. I own 4 of their rods and the TiMax 4 weight is a nice combination of mid taper strength and tip flexibility. You can throw some string with this rod but laying down tiny dry flies is nicely handled. A very good all-round trout rod. Well designed and well finished and consistent with Powell's reputation for making well thought out rods.
