Westin W8 Super Finesse 2nd Generation – 7’2″ L (2-10g)

The Long-Reach Specialist for Ultra-Light & Finesse Lure Fishing

Experience the zenith of finesse angling with the Westin W8 Super Finesse 7’2″ L. This is the ultimate rod choice for anglers who need extra reach and casting distance without sacrificing feel. Perfectly suited for ultra-light and super-finesse lure fishing, this model is a game-changer when targeting shy perch and small-to-medium predators in wider waters.

At 7 feet, 2 inches (2.18m), this rod excels when:

• You need to launch tiny shads and micro-jigs far into open water.
• Fishing from the bank or high vantage points where length aids line control.
• Working micro-hardbaits, crankbaits, or light metal lures with maximum accuracy.

Revolutionary Sensitivity and Feel

The heart of the rod is the super-light Toray® TORAYCA® T1100GC & M40JB high-carbon blank. This industry-leading material delivers:

• Maximum Response: The blank transmits every piece of bottom structure and the slightest “tap” directly to your hand.
• Pinpoint Accuracy: The crisp action allows for precise lure placement, even with lures weighing as little as 2 grams.
• Stealthy Power: While incredibly sensitive, it has enough hidden strength to handle larger-than-expected fish when paired with light braided line.

This rod is the perfect companion for modern street fishing and light boat tactics where subtlety is key.

Premium Components for a Finesse Edge

We’ve outfitted the Super Finesse with the best components available to ensure flawless performance in a lightweight setup:

• Reel Seat: Lightweight Fuji® T2C carbon for superior vibration transfer.
• Guides: Tangle-free Fuji® SIC guides minimize friction and maximize the casting distance of tiny lures.
• Aesthetics: Finished in a striking FE2O3 iron oxide blank colour.

For optimal balance and feel, combine the 7’2″ Super Finesse with a size 1000 or 1500 fixed spool reel.
