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.

Beautiful rods
Feels light in the hand, very strong backbone, can launch a swim bait into space if needed without breaking a sweat.
Finally had time to go fish. Paired it with Bates Salty. First fish caught was a 43" Bull red. Handled it like a champ.
Was having a hard time finding a rod that fit my needs. And old 18 had exactly what I needed. Excellent rod and quality!
Absolutely what I expected. Quality rod. I’ll be back!!
I absolutely love this rod, it is very light and sensitive but still strong enough to bring in big fish, it is my 3rd Old18 rod and this is my go to the most, light for casting all day with no problems, I love that Old18 is Veteran owned and made in Texas.
I have not had a chance to use the 11’6, but I was able to take out the 9ft. It is very sensitive and light weight. On top of the great rods they have great customer service.
My 2nd Kinetic and my 3rd Old 18 rod!!! 1st class all the way, treat yourself dont cheat yourself!
Rod is very light craftmans ship is great i love the alps seat with the lock nut. paired it up with a new calcutta conquest DC cant wait to go fish it this weekend
