Westin W3 Powershad 3rd Spinning Rod 2.44m 15

Westin W3 Powershad 3rd — All-Round Predator Performance in a Medium-Heavy Spinning Rod

The W3 Powershad 3rd Generation is a medium-fast action spinning rod built for the versatile predator angler — equally at home throwing soft plastics or hard lures at pike, zander, perch, and beyond.

Torayca High Performance Carbon Blank

Westin retained the proven, much-loved action of the Powershad series and upgraded the blank to Torayca® High Performance Carbon. The result is a noticeably faster response and outstanding sensitivity — you'll detect even the most tentative take straight through to your fingertips, without sacrificing the loading characteristics that make this rod such a capable lure thrower.

Built for All-Day Fishing

Every detail is chosen for comfort and control on long sessions. The Carbon SKS-LS reel seat offers a secure, tactile connection to your reel, while the high-quality EVA handle gives a confident grip in wet or cold conditions. EUKTLTSG guides keep line flowing cleanly through the cast, and the Seaguide® TUHOOK#4 hook keeper keeps your lure safely parked between spots.

Choose the Right Variant

The W3 Powershad 3rd Generation is available in three configurations to match your target species, venue, and preferred lure weight. Select the length and power that suits your style:

W3 Powershad 3rd 8'/2.44m M 7–25g — 126g; lighter medium power, ideal for perch, smaller zander, and finesse soft-lure presentations on rivers and smaller waters
W3 Powershad 3rd 8'/2.44m MH 15–40g — 132g; medium-heavy power at 2.44m, the current rod; covers a broad lure range for pike, zander, and perch on lakes, rivers, and canals where casting distance is less critical
W3 Powershad 3rd 9'/2.74m MH 15–40g — 143g; same medium-heavy casting weight in a longer blank for extra reach from shore, bridges, or open water
