Westin W4 Powershad-T 2nd Casting Rod 2.55m 60–180g Fast Progressive

Westin W4 Powershad-T 2nd Casting Rod — Power and Precision for XXL Predator Fishing

The W4 Powershad-T (Powershad-Trigger) 2nd Generation is built for anglers who throw big soft and hard lures all day in pursuit of trophy pike and other large predators. A softer tip loads smoothly under heavy weights while a strong backbone drives the hook home every time.

Torayca High Performance Carbon Blank

The blank is constructed from Torayca High Performance Carbon, reinforced with 1k woven carbon for added stiffness and impact resistance. At 321 g the 2.55 m rod stays manageable through long casting sessions, and the fast progressive action delivers precise feedback so you feel every twitch and follow before the bite.

Built-Up Hardware for Serious Work

A Fuji ACS Trigger reel seat locks your multiplier firmly in place and gives a secure, ergonomic grip during hard hook-sets. SeaGuide LS-XQ guides keep heavy braid running cleanly under load, while the UltraGrip EVA handle and custom non-slip rubber end cap reduce fatigue on cold or wet days. A D-Hook keeper holds rigs safely between casts.

Choose the Right Variant

Both rods share the same premium components — Fuji ACS Trigger seat, SeaGuide LS-XQ guides, Torayca carbon blank and UltraGrip EVA handle — and suit baitcasting reels for big-lure predator fishing. Pick the length and power class that matches your water and lure range:

• Westin W4 Powershad-T 2nd Casting Rod 2.18 m 50–150 g 296 g Fast Progressive — compact baitcaster for medium to large swimbaits; ideal for tighter river banks, boat fishing and waters where a shorter tool gives the edge with lures up to 150 g.

• Westin W4 Powershad-T 2nd Casting Rod 2.55 m 60–180 g 321 g Fast Progressive — longer blank for extra casting distance and leverage; best suited to open water, large reservoirs or shore fishing where heavier lures (60–180 g) and maximum reach are needed.
