Slow jigging is a deep-water technique where weighted lures (jigs) are raised and lowered with a controlled rhythm. The Westin W2 targets large saltwater species: halibut, cod, saithe, giant trevally, and barracuda. It excels in depths from 30 to 100+ metres.
For moderate depths (30–60 m) and calm conditions, use 40–80g jigs. In deeper water (60–100+ m) or strong current, opt for 80–120g to maintain bottom contact and feel. Lighter 20–40g jigs suit shallow reefs or calm days.
The Westin W2 is designed for experienced sea anglers with solid slow-jigging technique. Beginners should first master the fundamentals (boat safety, depth control, jig rhythm) before investing in a specialist rod of this calibre.
Use braided PE line (PE 1.0–2.5) for direct lure feedback and strength. Attach a 0.40–0.60 mm fluorocarbon leader (1–2 metres). Fluorocarbon is invisible in saltwater and resists rough bottom structure.
Two sections (1+1) reduce transport length, making the rod practical for boat trips and travel. Modern section connections retain full sensitivity. The compact form makes international fishing trips and charter boats far easier.
The blend (80% 30T, 20% 24T) combines the strength of higher modulus carbon with the flex and feedback of standard carbon. This creates a responsive tip for bite detection whilst maintaining a strong mid-section—pure 30T can feel too stiff for finesse jigging.

The Westin W2 Hybrid Slow Jigging is a specialized sea rod designed for slow jigging in depths where sensitivity matters. With a hybrid carbon construction (80% 30T, 20% 24T) and parabolic action, it delivers fine feedback from the lure whilst maintaining enough backbone to control large offshore species like halibut, cod, and trevally.
Slow jigging in major depths demands precision equipment. Standard rods often fail in two ways: too stiff and you miss subtle bites, too soft and you lose lure control. The W2 Hybrid balances a responsive, responsive tip with a stable mid-shaft—you feel every twitch from the jig whilst keeping it moving predictably. The hybrid blank outperforms pure 24T carbon in strength and pure 30T in feel, creating a sweet spot for long-sink-jerk and half-pitch work.
Seaguide components throughout ensure durability in harsh conditions. The XCZS reel seat sits comfortably during extended sessions. Gunsmoke guides are engineered for braided line and resist corrosion. A split grip reduces fatigue and improves sensitivity transfer from deep-water strikes. A tangle-free stainless steel hook keeper secures the jig during transport.
The 20–120g range covers multiple scenarios: lighter jigs in moderate depths or calm conditions, heavier options when fighting strong current or fishing below 60 metres. The parabolic action suits both Long-Sink-Jerk (smooth, controlled drops) and Half-Pitch (rhythmic, compact strokes). Two sections break down compactly, ideal for boat trips and international travel.
Target halibut off Scandinavia, cod and saithe in northern European channels, or giant trevally and barracuda in tropical saltwater. Experienced slow-jigging anglers in any major seaport will find this rod purpose-built for their technique.
