Choose the 260 cm M version for 9–35 g lures or the 285 cm MH version for 12–42 g lures. The M weighs 127 g and the MH 160 g, so the longer option offers a higher upper casting weight at the cost of more rod weight and length.
Yes. Both versions are designed to cast hard and soft lures into the surf for seabass, with a moderate-fast action optimized for distance. Match the lure weight to the chosen version's 9–35 g or 12–42 g casting range.
Westin recommends a size 3000–4000 spinning reel for both versions. The Fuji® T2C carbon reel seat and screw-down carbon hood hold the reel, so select a spinning reel within that recommended size range.
Both rods have two sections and include a neoprene rod bag. Allow for a transport length of 142 cm for the 260 cm version or 155 cm for the 285 cm version when planning storage or travel. Each is supplied in a recyclable triangular cardboard box.

The Westin W8 Sbass 2nd is a two-section spinning rod for fishing hard and soft lures in the surf for seabass. Its moderate-fast action is optimized for long-distance casting. The Toray® Torayca® T1100GC & M40JB carbon blank combines strength and power with responsiveness and sensitivity for coastal lure fishing.
The 260 cm M version casts 9–35 g and weighs 127 g. It is the shorter, lighter option and accommodates lighter lures than the 285 cm MH version. Its transport length is 142 cm.
The 285 cm MH version casts 12–42 g and weighs 160 g. Choose it when you want a longer rod and a higher upper casting weight, accepting the extra length and weight in hand and during transport. Its transport length is 155 cm. Both versions have two sections and the same moderate-fast action, so choose primarily by your lure weights and preferred rod length.
Westin recommends a size 3000–4000 spinning reel. A Fuji® T2C carbon reel seat with a custom-designed 360° screw-down carbon hood secures the reel. Tangle-free Fuji® SIC guides help reduce line tangles during casting. The Seaguide® Arc Hook 2.5 hook keeper provides a place to secure the hook between casts or when moving spots.
The blank has an FE2O3 iron oxide colour, and each rod carries a unique serial number. A neoprene rod bag is included for transport and storage, and the rod is supplied in a recyclable triangular cardboard box.
