Westin W4-BC Baitcasting Reel 101 195g LH 7+1

Westin W4-BC Baitcasting Reel 101 — Precision Left-Hand Casting at 195 g

The W4-BC (Baitcasting) 101 is Westin's mid-size predator reel built for anglers who demand smooth, repeatable casts with everything from soft-plastic rigs to medium-weight jerkbaits — and want it in left-hand retrieve.

One-Piece Aluminium Frame Built to Last

The rigid, single-piece aluminium frame paired with a carbon sideplate keeps the reel body torsion-free under load, so the gear mesh stays true cast after cast. The stainless steel shaft and GT-B gearing translate every turn of the CNC-machined handle into consistent, rattle-free power, while lubrication with three different greases ensures long service life even in demanding conditions.

Cast Control and Drag You Can Trust

Six-shoe internal centrifugal braking (CBS6) lets you dial in cast control precisely for the lure weight and conditions at hand, reducing backlashes without sacrificing distance. The Multi Teflon Stack drag delivers smooth, progressive pressure on running fish, backed by a drag clicker so you always know when line is leaving the spool. Seven sealed stainless ball bearings plus one roller bearing keep everything spinning freely and protected from water ingress.

Choose the Right Variant

The W4-BC series covers a wide range of lure weights and fishing styles. Pick the size that matches your target species and typical bait size:

W4-BC 51 SSG LH 7+1BB (Size 51, 186 g) — Left-hand — lightest option in the range; ideal for finesse predator tactics, smaller soft-baits and light crankbaits targeting perch, trout or bass on lighter setups
W4-BC 101 SSG LH 7+1BB (Size 101, 195 g) — Left-hand — mid-size workhorse for soft-plastics, medium crankbaits and lighter jerkbaits; suits pike, zander, bass and perch across a broad range of conditions
W4-BC 301 SSG LH 7+1BB (Size 300) — Left-hand, full aluminium frame — largest model in the range; designed for heavy jerkbaits, large soft-lures and demanding big-pike or saltwater predator sessions
