Westin W4 Powercast 2nd Spinning Rod 2.4m 60

Westin W4 Powercast 2nd 2.4m 60–180g — The Versatile Saltwater Spinning Rod for Serious Predator Fishing

The W4 Powercast 2nd Generation at 2.4m with a 60–180g casting range is a true hybrid rod built for anglers who demand performance across multiple saltwater and freshwater scenarios — from boat fishing for pike to bottom sessions targeting plaice and turbot.

Torayca® Carbon Blank with Medium-Fast Action

The blank is crafted from the finest Japanese Torayca® High Performance Carbon, reinforced with 1k woven carbon for extra backbone. The Medium-Fast action delivers the sensitivity needed to feel every twitch of a heavy jig or shad while still generating the power to cast 60–180g loads and handle hard-running fish at range.

Extended Front Handle for Precise Lure Control

The elongated EVA UltraGrip front handle has a unique shape that lets you place your casting hand further up the blank for pinpoint control over every lure movement. Whether you are working a large shad for pike or bouncing a jig across a sandy bottom for halibut, the Fuji® DPS reel seat, SeaGuide® LS-XQ ring guides, Comfort Cross Gimbal (CCG), and custom non-slip rubber bottom cap complete a set-up engineered for long boat sessions.

Choose the Right Variant

The W4 Powercast 2nd is offered in two lengths and power ratings for the same 2.4m (8ft) platform, both sharing Medium-Fast action, SeaGuide® LS-XQ guides, and Torayca® carbon construction:

Westin W4 Powercast 2nd 2.4m 40–130g (321g) Medium-Fast — lighter lures and smaller shads; suits pike with 20–80g jigs and spinners, or plaice/turbot with lighter rigs from a boat
Westin W4 Powercast 2nd 2.4m 60–180g (332g) Medium-Fast — heavier jigs and large shads; ideal for pike with big swimbaits, halibut jigging up to 180g, or turbot/plaice bottom fishing with heavier leads
