The W4 Powershad-T 2nd from WESTIN is the renewed series of the well-known W4 series. Now existing in the W4 2nd generation! Casting XXL Shads for hours may sound like a tough job, but once you lean into a monster pike, it's well worth it. These powerful 2nd generation Westin Powershad-T rods make it a lot easier to get there, and once you're hooked up, rest assured the Torayca® High Performance Carbon blank will keep you in control. The W4 Powershad-T 2nd Generation rods have a softer tip, but with plenty of backbone in the blank to set the hooks. Designed for soft lures but equally good for casting hard lures, spinnerbaits or other heavy lures for large predators.
