This compact, all-in-one bank-side kit from Guru keeps your gear dry, secure and ready for action. With an adjustable feeder rest and rod-protecting bands, you can tweak rod position in a flash and focus on the bite rather than faffing with gear.

- Fully adjustable Reaper Multi Positional Feeder Rest lets you dial in the exact rod angle for feeder or float fishing, adapting to bank angles and changing conditions.
- Non-slip grip with rubber inserts keeps the rod securely seated during powerful bites, reducing the chance of the rod being knocked from the rest.
- Reaper Specialist Rear Rest delivers a secure, flexible grip on the butt of the rod, with a wide fit to accommodate different butt sizes.
- Guru Rod Bands are soft neoprene, designed to keep rods together during transport and protect blanks and guides from knocks.
- Ultra-absorbent Guru Microfiber Towel is quick-drying, compact and easy to wash, perfect for hands, tackle and nets on the bank.
- Durable, weather-resistant construction and simple on-bank use keep the kit reliable through long sessions in all UK conditions.

Materials and durability
The towel is built from high-quality microfibre for rapid drying and lightness, making it easy to stash in a bag or clip to a belt for instant access. The Reaper rests are designed for robust on-bank performance, with flexible fit options that adapt to different bank angles and rod butt sizes. The neoprene rod bands provide soft yet secure protection to rod blanks and guides during transport, minimising clatter and dings on the journey to and from the bank. Together, these components create a kit that stands up to UK weather, from drizzle to wind, season after season.
Usage instructions
- Attach the Reaper Multi Positional Feeder Rest to your bank setup and position it to suit feeder or float fishing specifics.
- Adjust the rest to find a stable, optimal bite-angle. Use the non-slip inserts to lock the rod firmly in place.
- Thread the Guru Rod Bands over your rods to keep blanks and guides protected during transport to and from the water.
- Fit the Reaper Specialist Rear Rest to the butt of the rod, ensuring a flexible yet snug grip that accommodates a range of butt sizes.
- Keep the Guru Microfiber Towel handy on the bank for quick hand and tackle drying between casts, helping you maintain grip.
- Whenever you move positions along the bank, reposition the rest and retighten the grip so you’re ready for the next bite.
Care and maintenance
Rinse and air-dry the towel after use to prevent odours building up. The microfiber dries quickly, so you can reuse it across multiple sessions. Wipe down rests and band components if wet and store in a dry place to preserve grip and longevity. The neoprene bands won’t lose their stretch after repeated use, and the rests remain reliable across varied UK weather conditions when properly maintained.
Why this kit is handy for UK anglers
On crowded banks or windy days, the ability to secure rods quickly and keep gear in one place is worth its weight in silver. The non-slip feeder rest holds fast against lively bites, while the rear rest offers a flexible fit for various rod butt sizes, giving you peace of mind during fast runs or gusty sessions. The neoprene banding keeps rods neat and protected, so you don’t end up with a tangle of gear at the boot or in the bag. The towel ensures your hands stay dry and clean for better knot tying and handling of nets, a small but crucial advantage when the bite matters most.
Fitting and compatibility notes
The Reaper rests are designed for ease of use and quick adjustments on the bank, with a secure, reliable grip that stands up to the pace of modern fishing. The rear rest is described as flexible and suitable for a wide range of butt sizes, which helps when sharing gear with teammates or rotating rods mid-session. Rod bands are soft neoprene and protect the rod blanks and guides while transporting gear to and from venues. This kit is a practical, compatible addition for most barbless or standard setups using Guru accessories, offering a tidy, weather-ready solution for busy bank days.

For the journey home, keep the towel in the outer pocket of your bag for quick access when you’ve finished your session and need to clean hands before driving. If you fish in colder months, the compact nature of the towel and the secure rests can help you stay comfortable by reducing fiddling and keeping lines aligned while you swap baits or re-tie rigs.
