Choose the 166 g MH for a casting-weight range of 30–80 g or the 181 g XH for 60–180 g. Both are 2.4 m long. Their ratings overlap at 60–80 g, so decide whether you also need to fish lighter lures or extend your range to heavier ones.
Yes, Westin specifies both casting and trolling for pike, with fishing from the boat or bank. Supported lure types include hardbaits, Shadteez, Bullteez, hybrid lures and large spinnerbaits. Match the lure weight to the chosen version's 30–80 g or 60–180 g rating.
Westin recommends a size 200 or 300 Westin BaitCaster reel. These Powerstrike-T variants are baitcasting rods, with a Fuji® T2C carbon reel seat and a screw-down carbon hood to secure the reel, so select a baitcasting setup rather than a fixed-spool spinning setup.
Allow for a transport length of 131 cm with either version. Both rods separate into two sections and come with a neoprene rod bag and a recyclable triangular cardboard box, so a bag is already provided for carrying the rod.

The Westin W8 Powerstrike-T 2nd casting rods combine low weight with power for pike fishing from the bank or boat. Their optimised Toray® Torayca® T1100GC & M40JB blanks provide the responsiveness for working hardbaits, Shadteez, Bullteez, hybrid lures and large spinnerbaits. Both versions can be used for casting or trolling, so choose the casting-weight range to suit your lures.
Both rods are 2.4 m long and have two sections. The MH (medium-heavy) version is rated for 30–80 g and weighs 166 g, making it the lighter option for lures in the lower weight range. The XH (extra-heavy) version is rated for 60–180 g and weighs 181 g, accommodating heavier lures at the cost of 15 g more rod weight. Their ratings overlap at 60–80 g, but the MH covers lighter lures and the XH extends the upper limit to 180 g.
Westin recommends a size 200 or 300 Westin BaitCaster reel for the Powerstrike-T. The Fuji® T2C carbon reel seat and custom-designed 360° screw-down carbon hood secure the reel. Tangle-free Fuji® SIC (silicon carbide) guides help reduce line tangles during casting.
The Seaguide® arc hook 2.5 hook-keeper provides a place to secure the lure between fishing spots. Each rod has its own serial number for individual identification, and the blank colour is FE2O3 iron oxide.
Both two-section rods have a transport length of 131 cm, making that the length to allow for in your storage or transport space. A neoprene rod bag is supplied for carrying the rod, together with a recyclable triangular cardboard box.
