The medium-fast action is tuned specifically for jerkbaits, letting you impart action precisely without the rod overwhelming the lure's natural swim. The Torayca carbon blank keeps overall weight down to reduce fatigue during extended casting and jerking sessions, while the WESTIN 3C-Carbon Handle maximises sensitivity so you can feel the wobble, spin, or glide of your lure at all times. The rod's strength also ensures deep hook penetration, which matters when landing pike with hard mouths. The W6 Jerk and Swimbait-T 2nd Generation (7'3" XH) is a dedicated rod for actively working pike lures, pairing the brute strength of an extra heavy rod with a custom medium-fast action for precision lure control. Its lightness and the sensitive 3C handle let you fish hard and accurately all day long. It balances well with a size 200 Westin BaitCaster reel.
