Product Details and Uses

Westin W8 Sbass 2nd Generation – 8’8″ M (9-35g)

 

 

The Ultimate Long-Range Caster for Discerning Sea Bass Anglers

 

The Westin W8 Sbass 8’8″ M is precision-engineered to meet the demanding challenges of modern saltwater bass fishing. This rod provides the ideal balance of power and sensitivity needed to punch lures into a headwind and detect the subtle take of a wary bass.

At 8 feet, 8 inches (2.64m), this model is perfectly optimized for long-distance casting, allowing you to reach distant structure and cover maximum ground from shore, rocks, or boat. The 9–35g rating is the sweet spot for the full spectrum of modern bass lures, including plugs, surface poppers, soft plastics, and weighted jigs.

 

TORAYCA® T1100GC: Power to Punch, Feel to Sense

 

Bass fishing requires a rod that can do it all, and the W8 Sbass delivers thanks to its core component: the exceptional Toray® TORAYCA® T1100GC & M40JB carbon blank.

  • Optimized Moderate-Fast Action: This specific action is engineered to load deep and quickly, giving you explosive casting power to launch both hard and soft lures into the surf zone, even in strong coastal winds.
  • Rugged Yet Responsive: The blank is incredibly tough and powerful, built to handle heavy lures and hard-fighting fish, while retaining the superior sensitivity required to detect the slightest indication of a bass feeding beneath the waves.
  • The Ultimate Choice: This rod provides the control and leverage needed to guide bass away from structure and bring them safely ashore.

 

Premium Components Built for the Salt

 

Every fitting is saltwater-ready and chosen for peak performance:

  • Reel Seat: Lightweight Fuji® T2C carbon ensures maximum vibration transfer and a solid connection.
  • Guides: Tangle-free Fuji® SIC guides are corrosion-resistant and minimize friction for effortless long-range casting with braid.
  • Aesthetics: Finished in a striking Mermagic & FE2O3 iron oxide blank colour.

Combine this long-range specialist with a 3000 to 4000 size spinning reel for optimal balance, creating the ultimate setup for the serious sea bass angler.
