Westin W6 Jerk&Swimbait-T 2nd Casting Rod 2.21m 50–120g Medium Fast

Westin W6 Jerk & Swimbait-T 2nd — Baitcasting Power for Serious Pike Anglers

The W6 Jerk & Swimbait-T (Jerk & Swimbait-Trigger) 2nd Generation is a specialist baitcasting rod built for targeting hard-fighting pike with medium to heavy lures. At 2.21 m and 140 g, this 50–120 g casting weight version delivers the backbone and sensitivity to work big hardbaits, gliders, spinnerbaits, and soft lures with confidence.

Torayca Carbon Construction for Strength Without Bulk

The blank is built from 40T+T1100 Torayca High Performance Carbon — a layered carbon technology that combines high modulus and high tensile fibres to produce a blank that is exceptionally stiff and strong while remaining light. The result is a rod that loads and transmits power efficiently, giving you the hook-setting authority that heavy pike fishing demands without adding unnecessary weight to a long day on the water.

Direct Lure Contact with the Westin 3C Carbon Handle

The Westin 3C Carbon Handle (Close Contact Carbon) replaces traditional cork or EVA with a full-carbon grip construction. This transmits vibration directly from blank to hand, so you feel every twitch, knock, and follow through the handle. Combined with a Fuji KSKSS16/ASH reel seat and Fuji SiC guides, the rod keeps you connected to the lure at all times without dampening the swimming action of gliders or jerkbaits. A Seaguide TiDHOOK hook keeper rounds out the practical touches.
