First cast with the new rod got me a 4.7 pound largemouth on a Z Man finesse cross-eyed jig with a baby goat trailer. I have this rod paired with a Diawa Tatula CT bait caster. I own a bunch of Old 18 rods, both casting and spinning and this is my first Suppressor and certainly not my last. Once again, and as usual Old 18 comes through with flying colors. As a veteran, I support my veteran brothers and their ventures.
Fishing ultralight in salt and fresh for as long as I remember. The old 18 suppressor is my go to for virtually all inshore and freshwater fishing. It can make a crappie fun and can horse in a trophy flounder. Truly a jack of all trades and for my kind of fishing a match made in heaven. If you are on the fence on getting one, get two.
Great rod. Very sensitive but strong. The responsiveness when setting the hook is top notch. I’m looking to buy another one asap.
I haven’t received the rod that I ordered. I think the problem may be on the shipping service. The only reason for the negative review is that I attempted to contact Old 18 twice on the issue and have yet to receive a response.
Looks great still in pending haven't had a chance to try it out but im more than sure it will perform great I've seen mark use these over and over aging so I trust in what says and once a aging thank you especially randy for taking care of the little problem I had with rod. Thank you!! Definitely be posting pics I'll make sure to tag u guys
Beautiful and well built rod! Second to none! Well balanced with my Curado 150 MGL HG, and light. I plan to use it next week and I'm expecting low hand and wrist fatigue after a day of fishing. I've owned other 7'-6" rods and they were all heavy and not this well balanced. I currently own 4 great Kinetic and now 2 Buoyancy rods. In the future, I hope to acquire more in your other models. Old 18 was made aware to me by RX Angler & MDLR Fishing. They weren't wrong, you guys build incredible rods! Thank you for your Service, and providing us with beautiful American made fishing rods! Best wishes and keep up the good work.
