The 201 version is intended for medium-weight softbaits and hardbaits for predator fishing. The wider W4 series covers other lure weights, but no casting-weight range is supplied for this version, so use its stated medium-weight application as your selection guide.
This is the left-hand version, with the handle on the left. Its 7.3:1 ratio retrieves 78 cm per handle turn, useful for taking up slack between lure movements. Choose this version if you want to wind with your left hand.
It holds 150 m of 0.285 mm line and has a maximum drag of 9 kg. Use that diameter-specific capacity to compare line options, rather than assuming the same length fits at every diameter. The Multi Teflon Stack drag includes a clicker for audible feedback during line release.
The internal CBS6 centrifugal brake uses six shoes to control spool rotation during casting. The Stay-On sideplate and tension knob remain attached during adjustment, reducing the chance of losing parts. A protective hard case is included for transport and storage.

The Westin W4 is a baitcasting reel for predator lure fishing. This 201 left-hand version is suited to medium-weight softbaits and hardbaits. Its one-piece aluminium frame supports the gearing under load, while the internal six-shoe centrifugal brake (CBS6) controls spool rotation during the cast.
The 201 has a 7.3:1 gear ratio and retrieves 78 cm of line per handle turn, helping you take up slack between lure movements. The handle is on the left. At 206 g, it holds 150 m of 0.285 mm line and provides up to 9 kg of drag. These figures let you compare it with your intended rod and line setup. The finish is Metallic Trooper.
The W4 series is designed for pike, perch, zander, bass and trout, with different sizes serving different lure weights. This version's stated medium-weight lure use is the relevant guide here, rather than assuming every W4 model suits the same lures.
The Fast Line Connector on the spool simplifies attaching line when spooling up. Line View provides a view of the line. The Stay-On sideplate and Stay-On tension knob remain attached during adjustment, reducing the risk of losing these parts at the water.
The aluminium frame is paired with a carbon sideplate and a stainless steel shaft. Seven plus one sealed stainless steel ball bearings support smooth operation, alongside GT-B gearing. The reel is lubricated with three different types of grease.
The Multi Teflon Stack drag controls line release under load, and the drag clicker gives audible feedback when line is taken. A CNC handle with non-slip rubber knobs provides a secure grip while retrieving or playing a fish.
A protective hard case is included for storing and transporting the reel.
