Westin W2 Powercast Travel Spinning Rod 2.48m 20–80g

Westin W2 Powercast Travel — Four-Section Predator Rod Built for Travelling Anglers

The Westin W2 Powercast Travel is a dedicated pike and predator spinning rod that packs down to 73 cm for easy travel — without giving up the casting power or bite detection you need on the water.

Progressive Action for All-Day Lure Fishing

The progressive action (XH, Extra Heavy) is engineered to handle lures from 20 to 80 g without punishing your wrist. Load builds gradually from tip to butt, letting you work shads, spinnerbaits and large softbaits with precision, cast after cast. The 24/30 tonne high-performance carbon blank keeps the rod light at 195 g while delivering enough backbone to turn hard-running pike.

Maximum Feedback, Total Control

Seaguide® SXQLSG premium guides and a Seaguide® XVS reel seat transfer vibrations straight to your hand — you feel every twitch of the lure, every weed stem and every stone it grazes. The premium-grade EVA handle gives a secure, non-slip grip in cold or wet conditions, and the Seaguide® Dhook keeper holds your rig safely during transport between swims.
