Light spinning presentations often benefit from a rod that combines casting range with a more progressive load. The Old 18 Knighthawk 7' Medium Light Spinning Rod Mod-Fast pairs medium-light power and a mod-fast action with a 1/4- to 1/2-ounce lure rating, giving anglers a versatile setup for appropriately weighted soft plastics, small moving baits, and other light-tackle presentations.

Within its 1/4- to 1/2-ounce lure range, the KH-70MLS-MF can cover light soft-plastic presentations as well as small crankbaits and other moving lures. The 7-foot length provides useful casting reach, while the mod-fast action adds progressive flex that can help maintain steady pressure when a fish is hooked on a treble-hook bait or lighter tackle.
Add the KH-70MLS-MF when you want a medium-light spinning setup that can move between light soft plastics and appropriately weighted moving baits without being locked into one technique.
This model fits a versatile light-tackle role for appropriately weighted soft plastics, small moving baits, and similar spinning presentations. Keep the complete lure or rig within Old 18's published 1/4- to 1/2-ounce rating.
Small crankbaits that fall within the 1/4- to 1/2-ounce lure range are a logical application for its medium-light power and mod-fast action. The more progressive action provides additional give compared with a typical fast-action spinning rod.
A fast-action rod concentrates more of its initial flex toward the tip, while a mod-fast configuration transitions farther into the blank as it loads. That added give can be useful when fishing moving or treble-hook presentations.
The Medium Light KH-70MLS-MF is rated for 6-12 lb line and 1/4- to 1/2-ounce lures, while the 7' Medium Mod-Fast Knighthawk is rated for 8-17 lb line and 1/4- to 5/8-ounce lures. The Medium Light model keeps the setup on the lighter side of the Knighthawk spinning lineup.
No. Old 18 does not assign this model to one specific technique, and its medium-light, mod-fast configuration gives it a broader light-tackle role across presentations that stay within its published line and lure ratings.
