Westin W4-BC 51 186g 7+1BB LH

Westin W4-BC 51 — Compact Left-Hand Baitcaster Built for Predator Fishing

The Westin W4-BC (Baitcaster) 51 in left-hand retrieve puts serious performance in a compact frame, making it the go-to choice for anglers who target pike, perch, zander, bass, and trout with light to medium lures.

Rigid One-Piece Aluminium Frame with Carbon Sideplate

The W4-BC 51 is built around a robust one-piece aluminium frame paired with a carbon sideplate, delivering a stiff and reliable platform that resists flex under load. The stainless steel shaft and GT-B gearing keep everything running smoothly cast after cast, while lubrication with three different grease types ensures long-lasting, low-friction operation.

Precision Braking and Smooth Drag

The internal 6-shoe centrifugal brake system (CBS6) lets you fine-tune cast control for a wide range of lure weights and wind conditions. The Multi Teflon Stack drag provides consistent, progressive resistance when a fish runs, and the drag clicker keeps you informed of every metre taken. The Stay-On sideplate and Stay-On tension knob make spool access and adjustment fast and secure, while the Fast Line Connector on the spool simplifies line changes on the water.
