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.

Was having a hard time finding a rod that fit my needs. And old 18 had exactly what I needed. Excellent rod and quality!
Amazing rod will be buying more! Only issue I had was by the time it arrived at my house the eyes were bent, once they were fixed I tested out the rod and fell in love with how light and sensitive it was.
This rod handles the 6th Sense Draw very well. I expect it will also be good for the Alabama rig as well. Also, I believe it will be great for big swimbaits such as the Megabass Magdraft. I haven't caught any fish in it yet, but I'm sure it'll handle fish fabulously as do All of my other Old18 rods.
This was my 2nd order for a total of 4 Kinetic Rods. 2 - 7ft light casting and 2 - 7ft light spinning. Will definitely be ordering more. I love the weight and sensitivity of the these rods. If your thinking of trying out one these fishing rods, just do it, you won't be disappointed.
By far the most sensitive ultra light I've felt and the backbone is perfect set the hook and the fish is there right away. Also broke the rod completely my fault but they still helped me out with the 3 year warranty saved me some money on a new one super accommodating couldn't be happier with old 18. Thank yall
Old 18 Kinetic fits the bill! Ordered a 6’10” Medium light and loved it. Got another one the next week. Great all around spinning rod. I have three Old 18 Kinetic spinning rods and cant wait to switch my casting rods over to Old 18.
Great Customer Service and Fast Shipping!
light weight with a great action, I even came back and bought the Ultra Light version too. (super sweet TFS rod, aka: Trout Finesse System) Never heard a bad thing about Old 18 rods. And I'm in Florida. I SOLD off 22 rods collecting dust because they were heavy and out dated.
I purchased awhile back & have used it as my wade fishing rod ever since. Rod is very versatile, very easy to walk a top water bait, effective with plastic on a jig or slinging a popping cork out with a Vudu Shrimp.
