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.
A great rod went out and caught a nice 23” black drum on it first day out it handled the fight well and has served me well
The 7'3 medium heavy suppressor is an absolute dream to fish with.The lightness, sensitivity, comfortability,makes this rod a must have.I own G Loomis,St.Croix,Daiwa, Shimano rods,but I always seem to pick up my suppressor!I had to buy a second one!A great rod for all around techniques....an absolute blast to fish with!
Beast of a rod casts a mile and length with plenty of backbone to pull in hogs at the jetty! Highly recommended!!!
I own a number of rods from different manufacturers. The Old 18 is at the top of the list for weight, sensitivity, and strength. I’m thinking of buying another one just like this one.
It is a great rod just what i needed it for
