I now have five Old 18 rods. This might be my favorite, it is certainly my smallmouth workhorse. Have had it for approximately a year, it has been flawless.
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!
I have 11 Old18 rods from the Midnight on down. The Bouyancy series is my favorite. Light and sensitive, great feel in hand and fun to fish with. Look forward to see what rods they come up with next. Would like to see some longer (7’6”+) in light and medium light for smallmouth.
The Kinetic rods are awesome! I would recommend these rods to anyone who’s shopping on a budget. Best bang for your buck!
I had bought the baitcast a couple of weeks ago. I was so impressed that I bought the matching spincast. 7ft med-lite. I have arthritis in both hands and the lightness of the rods are incredible. Somedays I need to switch from baitcast to soincast depends on the pain. But these rods are a perfect fit for me to fish all day long.
Nice craftsmanship and very impressed with the performance. The only thing I was disappointed in was the bottom cap of the rod was offset significantly. Other than that I would definitely like to add more rods eventually. This purchase was for a technique.
Not to be disrespectful to the gentleman that commented on the rods being fast and not mod-fast as labeled...I've built rods for a very long time and all of the (5) old 18 rods I have are spot on to line weight/power ratings 💯..that being said I use these for flounder fishing on a big sand flat by my house and they are the best "Budget" rod I have ever used and trump rods/blanks I have payed big money for..the sensitivity for the price point is absolutely ridiculous...I can feel the tick/heaviness of a flounder bite on the end of a very long cast...my whole rod building journey/rod buying journey is/was to find the perfect blank/rod for me and the 7'6" ml it just flat gets it done regardless of price point...plz keep in mind just my opinion rods are very personal/specific to the end user..my journey stops here @old18 god bless 🙏
