The W3 Predator is optimized for freshwater trolling, particularly when targeting pike and zander with large lures, crankbaits, or mounted side planers. It handles heavy lures (60-180 g) and aggressive predators with a progressive action that combines a powerful hook set with a forgiving bend.
Progressive action distributes the load throughout the rod blank, providing a powerful strike while absorbing the head shakes and runs of large fish. This prevents break-offs and line failures during intense fights, keeping you in control from hook to landing.
It splits into two sections and transports at 133 cm, fitting easily into rod cases and vehicle storage. This two-piece design also makes rigging and maintenance faster without sacrificing performance or strength.
The W3 Predator has a carbon SKS-LS reel seat suitable for conventional (baitcasting) or multiplier reels with medium to heavy line capacity. Check your reel's foot width to ensure proper seating in the reel seat.
The W3 Predator is designed for experienced trolling anglers. Its 60-180 g casting range and heavy-lure bias require understanding of trolling techniques, boat handling, and fish fighting. Beginners should start with lighter rods and progress to this model as skills develop.

The W3 Predator Trolling 3rd Generation combines progressive action with the strength needed to handle large lures, side planers, and the hard runs of trophy pike and zander. Built from Torayca® high-performance carbon for durability and a lightweight feel, this rod absorbs punishment while keeping you in control throughout the fight.
Designed specifically for freshwater trolling tactics, the W3 Predator excels when working large swimbaits, crankbaits, and mounted side planers at speed. The progressive action provides powerful hook-setting while maintaining the flexibility to absorb head shakes and sudden runs from aggressive predators.
Fitted with Seaguide® TUXBRAG guides and a Seaguide® SCDHOOK#6 keeper, this rod minimizes friction and wear over long sessions. The carbon SKS-LS reel seat and high-quality EVA grip ensure comfort and secure hold, even in extended trolling scenarios.
Split into two sections, the W3 Predator transports at 133 cm, making it easy to pack and rig. At 259 cm with a 60-180 g casting range, it's sized for the techniques and prey fish that serious pike and zander anglers pursue.
