Guru X-Change Bait Up Reel – reel for intensive baiting in feeder fishing
The Guru X-Change Bait Up Reel is a feeder reel designed for baiting up when you need to cast repeatedly to the same distance and retrieve the feeder quickly. A line retrieve of 110 cm per handle turn reduces the time between casts, while two metal line clips allow you to mark two baiting distances.
It is designed for use with X-Change Bait Up rods in lengths of 3,05 m, 3,35 m and 3,66 m, and X-Change Bait Up Braid. Its construction is built to handle demanding feeder baiting, with a graphite body and rotor and machined aluminium components.
Key benefits and technologies
- 5,5:1 gear ratio and 110 cm line retrieve: retrieve the feeder quickly and maintain your rhythm when introducing larger quantities of groundbait.
- Two metal line clips: allow you to mark two distances and cast repeatedly to your chosen baiting spot.
- Machined Power Drive gearing: the drivetrain is designed to withstand the demands of repeated feeder retrieval.
- Quick drag system with multiple carbon washers: allows rapid adjustment of drag resistance while using your tackle.
- Infinite Anti-Reverse and soft-touch T-shaped handle knob: the anti-reverse prevents the handle from turning backwards, while the knob provides a comfortable grip during frequent winding.
