This is my fourth Kinetic series rod. Excellent product due to excellent workmanship and quality components. This is my first 7’3” MediumCasting fast model and it is extremely stiff for a “medium” designation. I have “heavy” model of different manufacture that are not so stiff. That said it is still a great rod for jigs, flipping, etc…. If you’re looking for a less limber rod try the kinetic 7’ medium.
Caught a few Bass and Hybrids on it so far. Great to fight hard pulling fish with. I feel like it would excel as a stout crank bait rod / chatterbait rod. Big spooks and even TX rigs.
This rod is only beaten by my medium heavy and heavy kinetic rods lol they have a great back bone I flip with it jerk with it and power drop shot plus use top water baits all on this rod.
Very sensitive. Great rod
however, i wish i would have ordered one of them a bit firmer so i could compare the two.
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.
