Westin W3 Livecast-T 3rd Spinning Rod 2pc 2.18m 40

Westin W3 Livecast-T 3rd — Live Sonar Spinning Rod Built for Precision Predator Fishing

The W3 Livecast-T (Live Cast — Technique) 3rd Generation is a dedicated spinning rod engineered for anglers who fish with forward-facing sonar technology. At 2.18m with a fast action and 40–100g casting weight, this H (Heavy) power rod gives you the reach and backbone to command big lures at any depth under the beam.

Ultra-Responsive Torayca® Carbon Blank

The blank is built from Torayca® High Performance Carbon — a premium Japanese carbon fibre known for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. The result is a rod that weighs just 160g while transmitting every movement of your lure with pinpoint clarity, so you can read fish behaviour and adjust your presentation in real time without guesswork.

Fast Action for Vertical and Mid-Column Control

Fast action concentrates flex in the upper section, giving you the instant tip response needed for precise vertical presentations and mid-column lure work. Whether you're twitching a paddle tail above a suspended zander or pausing a jig in front of a reluctant pike, the rod reacts exactly when and how you want it to. Seaguide® TUXQLSG guides and a Carbon SKC-LS reel seat complete a component package built for long sessions — paired ideally with a size 200 Westin BaitCaster reel.

Choose the Right Variant

The W3 Livecast-T 3rd is available in two lengths and power ratings to match different lure sizes, target species, and fishing scenarios:

W3 Livecast-T 3rd 7'2" / 218cm H 40–100g 2sec — the current rod; Heavy power, longer reach, suits bigger lures and heavier jigs; ideal for pike, large zander, and open-water live sonar work where longer casts give an edge
W3 Livecast-T 3rd 6'8" / 203cm MH 30–80g 2sec — Medium-Heavy power, slightly shorter and lighter (148g), casting weight 30–80g; well suited to finesse live sonar presentations, perch and zander in tighter spots or from smaller boats
