Purple
Versatile freshwater casting-dominant bass series in L–MH power with color-shifting finish
The PureLure Purple (model prefix TT) is a Chinese-made medium-light to medium power casting and spinning series for freshwater bass and similar species. The series is built for anglers who want a versatile lure rod that handles a broad range of presentations, from finesse lures to heavier reaction baits, in a single series. The color-shifting purple-to-grey-green aesthetic is a distinguishing visual feature. Sources for this series are limited; the model prefix TT may correspond to PureLure's Acuteviolet or a closely related product line.
Based on available specs, blanks are likely 36-ton carbon fiber with regular-fast to extra-fast action. The TT-C692MH model does not list a line weight, suggesting a slight data gap. Guide and reel seat components appear to be Torzite or Alconite ring guides on titanium or stainless frames based on related PureLure series. The series spans L through MH power in both casting and spinning, with casting dominating at 6 models versus 2 spinning.
Casting models run from 6'6" to 8'0" in L through M power with XF or F action. Spinning is represented by two models: 6'6" L and 8'0" ML, providing shorter-range finesse and longer-reach mid-power options. The 7'6" and 8'0" casting models handle up to 1-1/8 oz, extending the series' upper range into larger hard baits and swimbaits.
Shaded band: the spread of the lineup's 8 models, as percentile rank among same-type rods. Solid line = series median · dashed ring = catalog median.

Model notes
3 of 8 modelsThe only MH power model in the series and the only casting rod without a listed line weight, likely an oversight in the source data. MH at 6'9" with F action covers jig-and-worm, medium swimbaits, and reaction baits. The step up from M power gives more drive for hooksets.
Longest model and the highest lure ceiling at 1-1/8 oz. An 8-foot M power casting rod with XF action is unusual, the length aids distance casting for swimbait or big spinnerbait work. This stands apart from the shorter finesse-oriented models lower in the lineup.
Longer spinning model, 8 feet in ML suggests it may serve shore or bank anglers needing casting distance with light-to-medium lures. The ML power keeps it manageable for finesse applications while the length extends reach.
