Westin W3 Finesse Crank-T 3rd Spinning Rod 2.13m 10

Westin W3 Finesse Crank-T 3rd — Maximum Lure Control for Finesse Predator Fishing

The W3 Finesse Crank-T (Crankbait-Technique) 3rd Generation is a purpose-built finesse spinning rod for anglers who demand precision bite detection and confident hook-ups when working crankbaits and small hard lures.

Ultra-Responsive Moderate Action

Constructed from a Torayca® High Performance Carbon blank, this rod delivers a moderately paced, parabolic action that keeps smaller trebles pinned during head shakes and sudden surges. The blank is reactive enough to telegraph light bites yet forgiving enough to prevent hook pulls — a critical balance when fishing lighter lines.

Built for Accuracy and Comfort

Seaguide® TUMKLSG guides reduce friction and support long, precise casts, while the Carbon SKC-LS reel seat locks your reel firmly in place. The high-quality EVA handle absorbs vibration and stays comfortable through long sessions. A Seaguide® TUHOOK#4 hook keeper keeps your lure tidy on the move. Westin recommends pairing this rod with a size 50 or 100 Westin BaitCaster reel for an optimised setup.

Choose the Right Variant

The W3 Finesse Crank-T 3rd is available in two power ratings, both at 2.13 m (7 ft) with a 2-piece build and 110 cm transport length:

W3 Finesse Crank-T 3rd 7'/213cm M 10–30g (104 g) — this rod; the Medium power suits heavier crankbaits and larger hard lures; ideal for perch, bass, and trout in open water or around structure where longer casts with medium-sized lures are needed.
W3 Finesse Crank-T 3rd 7'/213cm ML 5–20g (106 g) — Medium-Light power; better suited to lighter, smaller crankbaits and subtle finesse presentations; ideal when targeting perch and trout with finesse rigs or micro hard lures.
