Westin W3 Oceanic Swirl 8-Braid 300m 0.305mm 22.1kg Marine Mix

Westin W3 Oceanic Swirl 8-Braid 300m — Metered Saltwater Braid for Confident Distance Casting

Built for saltwater anglers who need to read the water at a glance, the W3 Oceanic Swirl combines a five-colour metered system with premium Japanese UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) fibres and a purpose-built Double Dura-Coating — all in a round, 8-carrier construction designed to cast far and land accurately.

Metered Colour Pattern for Instant Depth and Distance Control

The line cycles through five distinct colours — Bright White, Smokey Grey, Orchid Purple, Lime Punch, and Dutch Orange — every 10 metres, giving you precise visual feedback on how much line is out without counting turns or guessing. This is particularly useful when vertical jigging, trolling at set depths, or tracking drift in strong tidal currents.

Double Dura-Coating for Wind-Knot Resistance and Smooth Casting

The hydrophobic Double Dura-Coating adds meaningful stiffness to the line, significantly reducing the risk of wind knots even when casting into strong onshore winds — a common challenge in open saltwater environments. The gel-coating process also repels water absorption, lowers friction through the rod rings, and produces a smoother surface finish. Each colour segment is soaked in dye tanks, oven-cured, and double-sealed to lock in colour stability over a full season of use. The 32-weave-per-inch construction reinforces abrasion resistance against rocks, reefs, and rough structure.
