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.
Really enjoying this rod , it feels light but has a great structure to land larger fish if needed. I have it paired with curado bfs xg 1/16th is my go to for this rod up to 1/8 glad I went with old 18 for my first bfs rod
Rod is awsome in every way will be buying more and recommending others to also get one. Makes it effortless keeping tension on the line.
Action and build are excellent! Haven’t fished it yet,working to much. Can’t wait to use it, Balances perfectly with 22 Aldebaran bfs reel.
The action of the rod if beautiful and the blank itself is top notch but basically is all your paying for, oh and the recoil guides wich I don't understand the hype on them they look and act like any other guides I've had on a nice rod. Whoever put the rod together left it looking more like a 100 rod than a 300. There is glue coming out the seems where the cork meets the reel handle. Below that there is another piece that you can see is not even and looks bad. Idk I was pretty disappointed that I paid 300 for it with little to no quality control. It was as if they just ordered some parts slapped it together and said that's 300. I have a 75 rod I got on sale from old18 that is way nicer looking than this.
Top rods!!! Can Handle big fish, love it
