Guru Reaper XL-Feeder Rest
Secure, simple support for your feeder rod on the bank, keeping it steady while you tend to your rig.
Fast to place and remove, so you can spend more time fishing and less time fiddling with gear.
Helps you keep the rod tip visible for timely bite detection, even when the wind picks up.
Lightweight and portable, easy to carry in a standard UK angling bag or tackle box.
Designed for use with feeder rigs across a range of venues, from rivers to reservoirs.
Minimal setup fuss lets you move between swims quickly when you’re chasing bites.
Usage instructions
Find a stable, level spot close to your chosen swim and place the Guru Reaper XL-Feeder Rest on the ground.
Rest the rod on the rest in a comfortable position, ensuring the butt or handle sits securely and the line has a clear path to the feeder.
Position your feeder rig as you normally would, taking care to avoid snaggy reeds or overhanging branches that could pull the line.
Keep the line tidy and free from tangles; double-check that the rest isn’t interfering with your cast or laydown.
When a bite comes in, monitor the rod tip and react in the usual manner for your method and venue.
After fishing, lift the rod from the rest, check the line has released cleanly, and store the rest away in your bag or tackle box.
Tips for UK anglers
Across chalk streams, canals, and big reservoir margins, every swim can behave differently. Start with a low profile and a short, direct line to your feeder to minimise disturbance from wind and water movement. On windy days, place the rest so the rod tip remains your focal point; a stable, low position often improves bite detection. Always assess the surroundings for snags and ensure your rest is positioned away from foot traffic and approach routes. Keeping your gear dry and out of damp grass will help extend its life between sessions on damp UK banks. If you’re new to feeder fishing, pair the rest with a simple kit setup and practice quick swaps between swims to maximise your fishing window. Care and maintenance
After use, wipe the rest down to remove any mud or residue. Store it in a dry place away from direct moisture and extreme heat. Regularly check for any loose fittings or wear and address issues before you head out again to the bankside. Related products you may consider

Additional information for UK fisherman
The Guru Reaper XL-Feeder Rest is designed with the needs of UK waters in mind. When planning trips, factor in venue type—rivers, canals, and reservoirs each demand different rig placements and bite timing. Keep a small, dry cloth handy to wipe your rest during breaks in action, especially after windy sessions when grit and dew can cling to surfaces. Remember to respect local regulations around gear, fishing hours, and access paths, and always carry a basic repair kit for quick fixes on the bank. By keeping your rest simple and reliable, you’ll spend more time reading bites and less time fiddling with equipment.

GURU REAPER SPECIALIST REAR REST
The Guru Reaper Specialist Rear Rest offers a secure rod grip that stays put in windy conditions and during powerful takes, giving you peace of mind on every session. Designed for anglers who want reliability and quick setup, it fits a wide range of rod butt sizes for a flexible, versatile addition to your kit. Secure rod grip: grips your rod firmly so it stays in the right position even when wind starts to lift or you’re into a strong take, helping you focus on the bite rather than fiddling with gear. Flexible fit: accommodates a wide range of rod butt sizes; the flexible arms gently grip the rod butt without pinching, so you can swap between tackle without swapping rests. Durable and weather-resistant: built from robust materials to withstand the British weather and season after season of use on rivers, lakes, and seasides. Easy to use: quick to attach and adjustable, allowing fast setup and simple repositioning mid-session as conditions change. Stable throughout fishing sessions: keeps your rod secure so you can react quickly to bites and keep your line in the right place for a clean strike. Versatile for mixed sessions: especially handy when you’re testing different rods in the same day or working between rigs—no need to carry multiple rests.
Usage and setup
Attach the Rear Rest to your existing rod setup using your usual mounting method. The design is intended for quick integration with standard rigs. Open the flexible arms and place the rod butt into the grip. Adjust the tension so the grip holds without pinching or restricting movement. Position the Rear Rest along the butt zone to align with your strike line. Make small tweaks if the wind shifts or you switch to a different rod. During your session, reposition as needed—the rest is designed for fast adjustments to keep the rod in the ideal bite position.
Materials and fit
The Rear Rest is constructed from robust materials intended to deliver dependable performance when conditions are less than ideal. Its flexible arms are designed to accommodate a wide range of rod butt sizes, which means you won’t be swapping rests every time you switch tackle. This versatility is especially useful for anglers who run multiple rods in a single session or fish across varied conditions. Durability and weather resilience
Weather resistance is built in, so the rear rest remains reliable through wind, rain, and spray often encountered on UK banks. The combination of sturdy construction and adaptable grip reduces the chance of slips or movement during heavy takes, giving you confidence to keep your line steady and your strikes efficient. Care and maintenance
After use, wipe the grip and arms to remove any salt, mud, or moisture. Leave it to dry in a ventilated area to preserve the grip’s flexibility and the integrity of the mounting points. Regular checks for wear on the grip or arms will help you spot when a quick readjustment is needed to maintain a secure hold. Common questions for UK anglers
Will it fit my rod butt size? Yes—designed to accommodate a wide range of rod butt sizes, so it’s versatile across many common setups. Is it durable in wet conditions? Absolutely—the unit is built from robust, weather-resistant materials to endure UK damp and spray. Is it easy to reposition during a session? Yes—it's designed for quick attachment and easy adjustment, so you can respond to shifting winds and bites.
Related gear and tips for UK anglers
Pair with compatible Guru accessories for a complete, reliable bank-side setup. Consider having a spare rear rest or a quick-release option in your bag for rapid changes between rods. Keep a small dry cloth and a damp wipe handy to manage condensation on cooler mornings or in damp environments. When fishing in windy estuary or river conditions, set the grip slightly looser than usual to allow quick rod repositioning without losing grip.

Magnets gives everyone the opportunity to build their own bait, not buy it. To use scientifically proven formulas to create your mix, to create your edge.
For us, angling for any fish is about finding an edge.
It's about doing it your secret own way and trying to outwit your target.
Then trying to really push home that advantage when you find it to maximise the results.
We as fishermen and women have searched for 'angles' to make our rigs, tackle and baits perform better than the person in the swim next to us ever since the boom of coarse fishing in the 80's.
Perhaps the most important part of luring any coarse fish is the end bit, the last connection between your target fish and your hook, the hookbait. The bit that stands out (or not) and that attracts that fish to munch your hook.
The problem is we can't all make our own bait exactly how we want it, whether that's because of time commitments or knowledge, we're forced to choose from the range of bait we're purchasing.
This presents many problems.
Say you're carp fishing using some Sticky Krill, but you want a pink barrel wafter for your solid bag - no-one makes them.
Or let's say you're fishing a match on the pole and want a band'um to match your tigernut pellets - not available on the market.
Or let's say you're fishing a crystal clear shallow lake and want a black popup to avoid the birdlife that matches your Mainline Cell offerings flavour profile - you can't get.
Or you could just be wanting something different, to blend your favourite flavours and make your own unique secret squirrel baits.
Or, at least you couldn't get them before.
Magnets has changed the game.
Now, you can get all of the above.
You can choose the colour, sizes and flavours of your hookbaits.
You can do it your way.
If you want a black popup flavoured to match your Cell, or a white wafter that matches your Octopus Prime, it's all possible with Magnets.
Simply choose your hookbait, choose your flavours and we will do the rest.
Each of our hook baits is finished with essential oils where suited, enhancers and a natural sweetener to ensure the flavour profile isn't bitter and you get year round attraction profiles.
If you're looking for a bait with more than 1 flavour give us a call or join us live on Tiktok or Whatnot and we'll make it up live for you. We suggest a max of 3 flavours.
