AS-73MC-F
Ascent is the resurrection of the classic Hollow Point series...with an exciting twist. It's made here in the USA. Utilizing its' predecessor's wildly popular blank, Ascent is a robust beast with American craftsmanship and unmatched sensitivity. A reliable blank made of 30+24 Ton graphite with cross-section carbon and 316 Stainless Marine Grade guides, means that this rod is ready for whatever you throw at it. With a nod of honor to our original color schemes, the Ascent is an eye-catching gray and copper theme that will highlight any arsenal.

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.
Very responsive, sensitive and super light… I do a lot of wade and kayak fishing and adding this to my arsenal was a good decision. Will be purchasing another in the future, highly recommend this company….
I bought this rod for BFS bass fishing. It is excellent ! Great sensitivity for bottom contact, but flexes enough for reaction baits.
The Winn grips are a pleasant bonus. This rod is a joy to use and I would recommend it to anyone. Quality is top notch and so is Old 18's service.
I've been fishing with this Kinetic rod for several months and it is truly impressive. It is extremely light, which makes it easy to cast all day long, yet strong enough to handle any of the inshore species in Tampa Bay. This rod is also exceptionally sensitive, it is able to detect the slightest of bites.
Pairs great with the Aldebaran reel. Catching bass on this combo is a blast. Thank you Old18 for such a nice BFS fishing Rod.

Purchased two additional rods to add to my arsenal. Can’t be any more happier with Old 18. By the way, you’re supporting small business.
