Yes. Westin designed the blank to handle the extra water resistance of deeper-running crankbaits when targeting big perch and zander. This M version is rated for 5–40 g, so match your crankbait weight to that range.
Use a baitcasting reel. Westin explicitly recommends a size 100 Westin BaitCaster, and the rod has a Fuji KSKSS16/ASH reel seat. Choose a baitcasting setup rather than treating it as a rod for fixed-spool spinning reels.
The rod is 239 cm long when assembled and separates into two sections with a transport length of 123 cm. Allow for that length when choosing a rod bag or checking storage space.
The lightweight 40T+T1100 Torayca® carbon blank and Westin 3C carbon handle provide the sensitive feedback described by Westin. This helps you maintain contact with the hardbait as you work it, including when deeper-diving crankbaits pull harder against the rod.

The Westin W6 Crankstick-T 2nd Generation is a freshwater casting rod designed for crankbait fishing with baitcasting reels. Its lightweight 40T+T1100 Torayca® High Performance Carbon blank and Westin 3C carbon handle (Close Contact Carbon) provide sensitive feedback from your hardbait during repeated casting and retrieving.
Westin specifically recommends this model for big perch and zander when deeper-diving crankbaits create extra resistance through their larger diving lips. The blank provides the power to work these lures while maintaining feedback and precise lure control. The rod is also suitable for pike lure fishing in freshwater.
The 239 cm version has an M power designation and a casting range of 5–40 g. Use that range to match your lure weight to the rod. Its specified weight is 120 g, supporting comfortable handling over longer sessions.
This rod is built for baitcasting reels, and Westin recommends a size 100 Westin BaitCaster. The Fuji KSKSS16/ASH reel seat holds the reel, while Fuji® silicon carbide (SiC) guides carry the line. The 3C carbon handle keeps feedback from the blank available at the grip, helping you stay in contact with the crankbait as you retrieve.
The two-section construction reduces the 239 cm fishing length to a transport length of 123 cm. Check that length against your rod bag or available storage space. A Seaguide® TiDHOOK#4 hook keeper provides a place to secure the lure hook between uses.
