Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd

A Lightweight yet Powerful Pike Rod

The Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd shares its foundation with the rest of the W8 range: a Torayca T1100GC blank reinforced with M40JB carbon fibre. The combination of low weight and genuine backbone shines throughout, giving you real fun at the waterside without sacrificing the power to play even the biggest pike. Whatever the situation throws at you, the Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd has it covered.

Versatile in Every Respect

The Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd offers outstanding versatility. That starts with the range of lure types you can fish effectively with it: hard lures, larger soft plastics, hybrid lures, spinnerbaits - in short, everything pike want. It also performs equally well from the bank and from a boat. Boat anglers in particular get even more flexibility: the rod launches lures to distance on the cast, and when trolling it delivers the right blend of give and backbone to hook big fish reliably without losing them straight away. Whichever way you fish for pike, the Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd will not let you down.

Premium Components Throughout

Beyond its excellent blank, the Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd is fitted with high-quality components throughout. Both the rings and the reel seat come from Fuji. The tangle-free Fuji SiC rings work perfectly with braid, while the Fuji T2C carbon reel seat holds a fixed spool reel with a secure, confident grip. The cork split grip features a removable carbon end cap - a detail you won't find on every rod. Finally, the Seaguide Arc Hook 2.5 keeper on the blank gives your rigged lure a secure hold whenever you move to a new spot.

Serial Number and a Quality Rod Bag

Every Westin W8 Powerstrike 2nd comes with its own serial number, adding a personal touch to an already characterful rod. To keep it in pristine condition, it is supplied in a quality neoprene rod bag that protects against scratches and other damage. A purpose-made triangular cardboard box provides additional protection during transport.
