Westin W2 Powercast Travel Casting Rod 2.48m 20–80g Progressive

Westin W2 Powercast Travel — Full-Power Pike Rod That Packs Down Small

The W2 Powercast Travel XH (Extra Heavy) in 2.48 m / 20–80 g is built for anglers who refuse to compromise between portability and predator-fishing performance. Four sections fold down to just 73 cm, yet the rod fishes like a full-length single-piece.

Progressive Action That Fights Fatigue

Casting big lures, shads, and spinnerbaits all day is demanding work. The progressive blank action loads smoothly through the cast, distributing stress along the full length of the rod rather than concentrating it at the tip. The result is noticeably less arm and wrist fatigue during long sessions, so you stay sharp when the take finally comes.

Maximum Feedback, Total Control

The 24/30-tonne high-performance carbon blank transmits every vibration back through the handle — feel each blade of grass, every pebble your lure touches, and the subtlest predator knock before the full take. Combined with Seaguide® SXQLSG premium guides and the Seaguide® XVS reel seat, the setup keeps line flow clean and the reel locked rock-solid under pressure.
