The Traverse Series is for swimbaits. A work of art from Master Builder Jake Brewer, the Traverse is the perfect tool for dragging giants. 7' 10" length for leveraging a deep dive on your pull. A premium carbon, American-made blank, 316 black stainless guides, Seaguide seats, and the tacky grip of the unique, one-piece carbon fiber handle let you either finesse when necessary or dig 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!!
Great rod with Shimano FX under popping cork.
Very sensitive to the bite, and powerful enough to pull in 45lb+ Big Bull Reds!
Surprisingly light but also surprisingly strong! Love both my Old18 rods.
This is my second Ascent spinning rod. I mainly use it while wade fishing. It’s been a game changer for me in getting fish into the net. Great backbone and sensitive tip to feel the slightest nibbles.
This ultra light BSF rod is my second one, I’m anxious to try them both out and test the differences. They feel the same as they should, both are light, fast and are 2-8#. These rods will cast 1.5 g’s very close to the same distance but I did however put my best BFS reel on my “Old 18”.
I’ll do a more in-depth review with the boat back in the water.
BTW “Old 18” has a great customer service, we had a shipping problem, and it was resolved as quick as possible. The fit and finish rivals the best so I purchased another rod from “Old 18”.
