Westin W6 Finesse Shad 2nd Spinning Rod 2pc 2.34m 8

Westin W6 Finesse Shad 2nd — Precision Sensitivity for Finesse Lure Fishing

The W6 Finesse Shad 2nd Generation is a two-piece spinning rod built for anglers who demand sharp bite detection and responsive control when working soft lures and finesse jigs. At 2.34 m with an 8–36 g casting range, it covers a wide range of medium-heavy finesse presentations.

Ultra-Responsive Torayca® Carbon Blank

The blank is constructed from 40T+T1100 Torayca® high-performance carbon, combining stiffness and low weight for a crisp, fast action. This translates directly into sensitive feedback through the handle, clear registration of subtle takes, and decisive hook-setting power — whether you're targeting perch, zander, or bass.

Fuji® SiC Guides and 3C Carbon Handle

Lightweight Fuji® SiC (Silicon Carbide) guides reduce friction for smooth, efficient casts and stand up to braided lines without wear. The custom-moulded Westin 3C Carbon Handle (Close Contact Carbon) keeps the rod light at 130 g overall while delivering an ergonomic, secure grip that channels vibration directly to your hand for maximum feel during the retrieve.
