Westin W6 8 Braid 0.33mm 24.9kg 135m Lime Punch

Westin W6 8 Braid — Precision-Built 8-Carrier Braid for All-Round Lure Fishing

The Westin W6 8 Braid is an advanced UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) braided mainline engineered for lure anglers who demand strength, sensitivity, and casting distance in a single spool.

Advanced High PIC Construction for Strength and Smoothness

The W6 is built using Westin's proprietary "Advanced High PIC" weave — 36 weaves per inch across 8 carriers — delivering exceptional abrasion resistance and a notably round, smooth profile for its diameter. At 0.33 mm, this line punches well above its weight class, making it a strong choice wherever tough structure or heavy lures call for reliable line performance.

Dura-Coating for Long-Casting Accuracy

A Dura-Coating gel process gives the W6 a hydrophobic, low-friction surface that resists water absorption and peels cleanly off the spool. The result is longer, more accurate casts — including with lighter lures — and reduced guide wear over time. Colour stability is locked in by soaking the line in dye tanks and oven-curing the pigment before a final dura-coat seal protects longevity.

Choose the Right Variant

The W6 8 Braid Lime Punch is available across a wide range of diameters on 135 m (150 yds) spools, and in selected diameters on 1500 m (1640 yds) bulk spools. Match your diameter to your target species and setup:

• 0.08 mm / 3.7 kg — ultralight finesse fishing, micro lures, small stream trout and perch

• 0.10 mm / 3.8 kg — light lure fishing, drop-shot, small predators

• 0.128 mm / 5.5 kg — light spinning, finesse jigging, perch and zander

• 0.148 mm / 6.8 kg — versatile all-round spinning, river and lake predators

• 0.165 mm / 8.3 kg — medium spinning, bass, zander, pike on lighter lures

• 0.205 mm / 10.6 kg — medium-heavy spinning, pike and larger predators

• 0.235 mm / 13.3 kg — heavier lure work, coastal spinning, larger pike

• 0.26 mm / 17.2 kg — strong-water predator fishing, heavier jigs

• 0.285 mm / 20.1 kg — saltwater and heavy freshwater applications

• 0.305 mm / 24.1 kg — heavy jigging, big-game lure fishing

• 0.33 mm / 24.9 kg — powerful mainline for heavy lures, saltwater predators, and demanding freshwater setups; 135 m spool

• 1500 m bulk spools available for selected diameters — ideal for spooling multiple reels or cutting to length
