Description
The Westin W8 Sbass 2nd Generation is a spinning rod built for modern saltwater bass fishing, balancing the power to cast into a headwind with the sensitivity to feel a wary bass take. At 8 feet 8 inches (2.64m), it is designed for long-distance casting, helping you reach distant structure and cover more ground from shore, rocks or boat. Its 9–35g rating suits the full spread of modern bass lures, from plugs and surface poppers to soft plastics and weighted jigs. The blank is built from Toray TORAYCA T1100GC and M40JB carbon, and its moderate-fast action is engineered to load deep and quickly, giving explosive casting power for both hard and soft lures, even in strong coastal winds. The blank stays tough and powerful enough for heavy lures and hard-fighting fish while retaining the sensitivity needed to pick up the subtlest sign of a feeding bass. That combination gives you the control and leverage to steer bass away from structure and land them safely. Every fitting is saltwater-ready: - Reel seat: lightweight Fuji T2C carbon for maximum vibration transfer and a solid connection - Guides: tangle-free Fuji SIC guides, corrosion-resistant and low-friction for effortless long-range casting with braid - Finish: Mermagic and FE2O3 iron oxide blank colour Pair it with a 3000 to 4000 size spinning reel for balanced, long-range sea bass fishing. - Model: W8 Sbass 2nd Generation - Length: 8'8" (2.64m) - Casting Weight: Medium (M) – 9–35g - Action: Moderate-Fast - Sections: 2-piece - Target Species: European Sea Bass, Coastal Game Fish - Blank Material: Toray Torayca T1100GC and M40JB - Guides: Tangle-free Fuji SIC guides - Reel Seat: Fuji T2C Carbon - Hook-Keeper: Seaguide arc hook 2.5 - Included: Neoprene Rod Bag and Recyclable Triangular Cardboard Box - Quality: Unique serial number on each rod
