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!!
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.
