The Traverse Series Swimbait Rod is the perfect rod for dragging giants. Traverse Rods are works of art from Master Builder Jake Brewer that give you the confidence that every hook set will drag in the giants! The Traverse sports a premium Northfork carbon, American-made blank, 316 black stainless guides, ALPS reel seats, and the tacky grip of the unique, one-piece carbon fiber handle. Combined, they let you either finesse when necessary or dig deep when have to. Show 'em your serious and make 'em drool over the tactical color scheme with pops of red.

Handles all Arigs and swimbaits perfectly! Good weight balance and sensitivity even though it's a heavy duty rod!
This rod handles big swimbaits very nicely and feels very comfortable in your hands
The big stick I picked up from Old 18, Traverse Swim Bait rod is absolutely one of the highest quality rods we have ever purchased. Amazing craftsmanship went into the build of this powerful beast!! Caught several big fish so far, but waiting to grab one of those elusive giants and haul it in with this amazing rod. Great in all aspects from feel and cast ability. Great work!!
Great casting with sensitive fast tip! Strong enough to fight large redfish. Long casting and comfortable all day grip.
I use mine for wade fishing and kayak fishing.
Only thing I would note is that this rod excels with braid that is rated 20 lb or smaller. Easily tosses Super spook and also lighter jig heads down to 1/8 ounce.
Kinetic - 7'6" Medium Spinning Mod-Fast
Light weight and great action. Switching all rods to old 18 in the future!
I love it, can't believe I waited this long to get one, old 18 is my go to rod from now on
The rod is super light, sensitive, and fun to fish. It casts smooth, handles small lures perfectly, and still has the strength to control bigger fish. Great VCR balance, great feel—an awesome rod for anyone who loves fishing.
