Meet the Kilwell NZ Powerplay Distance Surf Rod—the instrument you reach for when long, precise casts into the prime fish-holding zones become your daily goal. Built for serious surfcasters who crave distance without sacrificing feel, this rod turns every session into a strategic strike for the feeding fronts.

Design and construction that matter on the water. The Distance model DIS222FX pairs a TEXALIUM Power Butt with a responsive carbon tip, delivering immense reserves of power while preserving sensitivity to bite and subtle line movement. Its slimline profile is purposefully engineered to optimize balance, blank loading, and power transmission, so each cast delivers more of your energy into the line with less fatigue.

Why this matters in real-world fishing: a longer, more stable swing through the cast arc means you can launch heavier weights with accuracy, place bait further into the best feeding zones, and maintain control through long, powerful retrieves. The Powerplay’s combination of raw power and refined balance helps you consistently reach those distant, productive pockets where target species are feeding.

  • Length and construction: 4.27 meters, 2-piece blank for easier transport and rig setup without compromising performance.
  • Casting range: 55–170 g casting weight (roughly 2.0–6.0 oz) designed for versatile surf setups and heavier weights for distance.
  • Key materials: TEXALIUM Power Butt for leverage and strength, carbon tip for loading, sensitivity, and quick bite detection.
  • Balance and feel: slimline profile ensures optimal blank loading and power transmission, so long casts feel natural and controlled.
  • Origin and support: proudly made in New Zealand by Kilwell Rodcraft, backed by the Kilwell Lifetime warranty for lasting confidence on the beach.

This rod is ideal for anglers who want to push their distance without sacrificing bait presentation or bite detection. It's the perfect companion for shore shoots where reaching the top fish-feeding zones matters, whether you’re targeting snapper, kahawai, or other coastal species in waves and rip lines. The NZ Powerplay is built to perform, season after season, in the demanding conditions that serious surfcasters expect—and it’s backed by a heritage of New Zealand craftsmanship you can trust.
