FAQs
Q: What size reel suits this rod?
A: Westin recommend a size 1000 or 1500 fixed-spool reel to keep the whole outfit balanced for ultra-light work.
Q: What lure weights can I cast?
A: It’s rated for 2-10g, covering micro shads, micro-hardbaits and very light metal lures.
Q: What species is this rod aimed at?
A: Modern street fishing for perch and other predators that respond well to downsized, ultra-light presentations.
Q: Is this rod too light for anything but perch?
A: It’s purpose-built for ultra-light finesse work, so while occasional small pike or zander can be handled carefully, it’s not designed as an all-round predator rod.
