Product Details and Uses

Westin W8 Powercast-T 2nd Generation – 7’9″ XXH (40-130g)

 

 

The Versatile Big Bait Caster for Every Pike Angler

 

The Westin W8 Powercast-T 7’9″ XXH (40-130g) is the quintessential all-round heavy casting rod for pike fishing. This rod achieves a sublime balance between power and ease of use, making it the perfect partner for every regular pike lure in your box while still retaining the power to handle giants.

The length of 7 feet, 9 inches (2.36m) is ideal for all-day casting from both boat and bank, providing the necessary leverage for larger baits while remaining manageable. The versatile 40–130g rating covers the majority of heavy shads, hybrid lures, swimbaits, and big jerkbaits, truly making it one of the most versatile rods on the market.

 

TORAYCA® T1100GC: Ultra-Fast Feel and Controlled Power

 

The superior performance of this rod is built on the ultra-fast, lightweight Toray® TORAYCA® T1100GC & M40JB blank. This cutting-edge carbon technology ensures:

  • Unmatched Sensitivity: The blank accurately transfers every nuance of your lure’s movement, allowing you to keep in perfect contact with your bait and detect the softest takes.
  • XXH Power with Finesse: With the robust power to subdue that pike of a lifetime, the blank is still responsive enough, with a sensitive tip, to make fighting smaller pike a genuine joy.
  • Casting Machine: The ultra-fast action loads deep and recovers quickly, translating into effortless long-distance casts, whether fishing from a fixed position or constantly moving.

 

Premium Components for Flawless Reliability

 

This casting model features the essential trigger grip and is built with the finest FUJI® components:

  • Reel Seat: Lightweight Fuji® T2C carbon with a trigger grip (the -T) for maximum casting precision and ergonomic control when using a multiplier reel.
  • Guides: Tangle-free Fuji® SIC guides are heavy-duty and minimize friction, crucial for safely casting heavy baits on thick braided line.
  • Aesthetics: Finished in a striking Mermagic & FE2O3 iron oxide blank colour.

For the ultimate partnership in heavy pike fishing, perfectly compliment this rod with a Westin size 300 BaitCaster reel.
