  • I get a lot of question about BFS (Bait Finesses System). A lot of those questions are about the BFS reels I use on my channel. You guys see me actually catch big fish on these small bfs reels and are intrigued by the power one can get out of finesse tackles. However, lately the questions have been more directed towards the rods I've been using with my BFS reels.
    In this video, I introduce you guys to Old 18. They are the ONLY rod company in the entire United States that makes a MADE IN USA BFS rod. They have been doing it for over 1.5 years. All of my ultralight rods are designated BFS by Old 18.
    I wanted to show you guys what you may have been missing. I would dare to say that the majority of all BFS rods has to be purchased across seas. And, I don't know about you guys but, I DON'T WANT TO SPEND MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON MADE IN CHINA rods. Bottom line, don't buy Made in China. Support the USA companies.
    I hope you guys enjoy and I encourage y'all to check out Old 18 line of BFS rods Made in the USA. Use my discount code RXANGLER20 for 20% off!

    It’s funny how Nick is more excited than Lucky to show off how strong and great the product is. Nick was like a kid in a candy store showing the rod off. I have two Ambush rods. I’m thinking I need to pick up another one !

    Great job showing off the Old 18's. You know I have several Suppressors and Arius Rods. We've caught 9 plus lbs Reds on the Ultralight with great joy and amazement in this tackle. I would highly suggest to all anglers get some Old 18's in whatever rating and you will never regret it. Best Rods Ever.

  • @bucmcmaster
    @bucmcmaster 3 роки тому +15

    The only issue that concerns me with using ultralight rods is unduly stressing a fish you intend to release. A big fish cannot be landed quickly with light lines and buggy whip rods and a long battle is hard on a fish. My two cents: ultralight gear is for bream and crappie fishing, not for doing battle with slot reds and 20+ trout.

    If you use a blank only, not a finished rod, I probably won't have a heart attack next time. Thanks!
    Amazing test though, that was a full arc!
    Thanks for the information, that's a heck of a backstory!

    I have five Old 18’s including a Suppressor UL and L. Just curious why the UL is moderately fast action and Light is fast action. The heavier Suppressors are all moderately fast. I usually can’t tell one from the other in use unless I look at the markings.

    Awesome customer service as well. I broke 2 suppressor light rods fighting red fish. One was 25" and the other was a 29" red... needless to say they gave me my money back and I bought a laguna!!!!!!lol I have to say I've landed plenty on my suppressor ultra light and have not had an issue.... But how is the ultra light stronger than the light? I absolutely love my ultra light and Old 18 still has a customer.

    Hello Rx , amazing rod company that is truly trying to do better by the customer than any other manufacturer in USA ,,, only question i have Nick is i notice the suppressor rod u use has an extremely deep bend all the way to the handle - which appears to put undue pressure on the reel & anglers hand & arm ,,,, also i notice a whippy rod makes it awkward to cast a lure for lack of leverage,,,,?,,,
