I ordered the 7' medium light suppressor. I caught 19 fish the first weekend I had it . Dollar for dollar ,pound for pound this is the best rod I've ever used . It is light responsive has some good backbone all around a great rod.
As of now I have it paired with a Cabo 50 spinning. It works well and it’s nice and light. Exclusively use it in the marsh or jetties with 1/8-1/4 jig and have caught some nice fish with it.
Best rods on the market!
This has an ml power rating but don’t let that fool you.It likes to battle the big fish. I have a Vanford 1000 reel on it. The mod/fast action really does it job when hooked up with larger fish. It throws a variety of baits and is a very accurate caster. It tamed the bass pictured after a short battle. This is a great rod.
Awesome rods and the company logos look fantastic. Thank you Old 18.
This is my third rod from Old 18. My first was the Ascent 7’3”MH and I was really impressed so I ended up getting the Medium and a Kinetic Ultralight casting rod as well. These are my go to now. Thinking of getting a suppressor next.
I paired with a Shimano slx bfs reel and it handles great. I’ve thrown down to 1/16th oz without issue. Biggest fish I’ve caught on it so far is a 2.5lb smallie but I’ve no doubt it’ll handle bigger fish just fine.
Rod purchased within the month, with a few casts made. Last Saturday the butt section fractured during an overhand cast with a 1/8 oz lipless crank.
The butt section is very small in diameter compared to the butt tapers for most casting rods. Submitted in the warranty support form for next steps. The workmanship and components are very nice, but can’t have this happen.
Used many overseas bfs rods currently but this rod handle salt water exceptionally well, from spotted bay bass, to surf perch and even some undersize halibuts. Lost some cudas in the bay but that was not the rod's fault(mostly line and me getting too excited), all and all I'd say this is my go to rod for everything bay and surf fishing now.
