BCY-66ULC-MF
Bait Finesse Fishing Rod of Ultimate quality.
The Buoyancy Micro Lure Series Rods were developed for anglers who love to throw the lightest of lures and bait. Built in the USA by Master Builder Jake Brewer and anchored on a premium modulus carbon blank. This combination gives maximum strength and feather weight. Buoyancy rods are works of art that can relay the lightest hits and yet fight the biggest fish. Only using the best components, it has 316 Alconite guides, Fuji SK2 reel seats, and a unique carbon fiber split grip that will give an incredible feel without slip. The Buoyancy's style is in a class of its own. Inspired by our wildly popular SEAL Legacy rod, the Buoyancy is wrapped in Blue & Gold with anodized gold accents. Insanely light and designed for all-day sight and precision strike casting, Buoyancy is a serious weapon for the fight.

I love the feel and sensitivity of the rod. Paired it up with a Shimano Aldebaran BFS.
I own several Old 18 rods including a few Suppressors. I bought my son a UL Buoyancy spinning rod as a gift last year and he really liked it so I figured I would try the 6'6" UL casting rod for my finesse bass fishing setup when I saw the latest price adjustments. Paired with my Aldebaran BFS reel I was able to throw unweighted 3" Senko's with ease. Rod strength was never a concern despite the potential for some big smallmouth but what impressed me the most was the casting trajectory. Roll casts, side arm and even overhead casts came off the rod low and accurate. Skipping has never been a strength for me, but the rod made it much easier to get underneath the canopy. Most of my BFS rods are extra fast action so I am guessing the "moderate fast" action on this rod just fits my style perfectly and has earned the title of my favorite UL BFS stick.
I received the rod and loved how light it felt as well as the color scheme. I was disappointed thought because after the first use I noticed some of the plastic film the rod is wrapped in started to almost bubble up and peel. I make sure to keep it in a Old 18 Rod Sleeve so Not too sure why it started to chip after one use but besides that loving the rod
Great feel! Great sensitivity!
Great to buy such a great product made in the USA!
Kinetic - 7'0" Ultra Light Casting Mod-Fast
The looks are a 4, there are some blemishes and separation on line wraps around a couple guides. The feel in the hand is a three, my thumb lands right on top of the bait keeper,I don’t like where the keeper is. It might be the reel seat but it just feels ok in then..
I can’t wait to get it them out on the water.
I will buy more old 18 rods, I am a marine so it would be cool to see something in red and gold D3vil dog or something.
For the price they can’t be beat. Awesome customer service when I placed the wrong order they helped me right away. There rods are some of the best out there bar none. Took my new rod out and it performed great caught an 18” trout and a 16”red on it the first time I used it. Old 18 I will be a customer for life thanks to Randy and his team!
