ST3 means medium stiffness on Westin's scale from ST1 (maximum stiffness) to ST5 (maximum flexibility). It balances casting and hook-setting control with flexibility for natural lure movement, and is easier to knot than very stiff fluorocarbon.
The supplier lists pike with large plugs, zander with bottom-worked jig lures and catfish with heavy rigs, plus saltwater fishing for cod, halibut, coalfish, barracuda, GT, marlin, tuna and swordfish. This version has a 0.73 mm diameter and 29.1 kg breaking strain, so use those specifications to match the leader to your setup.
Its low refractive index makes the 100% fluorocarbon line barely visible underwater, useful with wary fish. High abrasion resistance helps withstand contact with stones, shells and edges, while fast sinking helps the lure reach depth in flowing water or near the bottom.
The supplier names the Palomar and improved clinch knots. High knot strength supports secure connections, and medium stiffness makes tying easier than with very stiff fluorocarbon. That handling also suits beginners making their first fluorocarbon leaders.
This product supplies 35 m of leader line in Clear, meaning transparent, with a diameter of 0.73 mm and a breaking strain of 29.1 kg. It is line material for making leaders, rather than a finished, pre-tied leader.

Westin W6 St3 Fluorocarbon is 100% fluorocarbon leader line for freshwater and saltwater predator fishing. Its low refractive index makes it barely visible underwater, useful in clear water or when fish are wary. The Clear version supplied here measures 0.73 mm in diameter, has a breaking strain of 29.1 kg and provides 35 m of line for making leaders.
The supplier describes the stiffness level as ST3, the middle of Westin's scale from ST1 (maximum stiffness) to ST5 (maximum flexibility). Medium stiffness balances control when casting and setting the hook with enough flexibility for natural lure movement. It also makes knot tying easier than with very stiff fluorocarbon and helps limit twisting compared with very soft line. This manageable stiffness also suits anglers starting to use fluorocarbon leaders.
High knot strength supports secure connections. The supplier names the Palomar and improved clinch knots as suitable options.
The line sinks quickly compared with conventional monofilament leaders, helping the lure reach depth promptly. High abrasion resistance helps it withstand contact with stones, shells and edges, making it useful over rocky bottoms and in flowing water.
The supplier identifies pike fishing with large plugs, zander fishing with bottom-worked jig lures and catfish fishing with heavy rigs as freshwater applications. Listed saltwater targets are cod, halibut, coalfish, barracuda, giant trevally (GT), marlin, tuna and swordfish. The 0.73 mm diameter and 29.1 kg breaking strain identify this version for choosing leader material to suit the setup.
The supplier lists the wider W6 St3 Fluorocarbon series in diameters from 0.14 to 1.20 mm. This product is specifically the Clear 0.73 mm version with 35 m of line.
