New July Product Launches: Power XS Top Kits, XS Pole Floats & Pulse 9 Feeder Braid
Guru has expanded its match fishing tackle range with three new product launches this July. The new Power XS Elasticated Pole Top Kits, XS Inline Pole Float Range and Pulse 9 Feeder Braid combine premium materials, proven performance and ready-to-fish convenience, offering reliable solutions for everything from F1s and silverfish to hard-fighting commercial carp.
Power XS Elasticated Pole Top Kits
Key Features
30T Tensile Carbon blank construction
UK-manufactured PTFE bushes
UK-manufactured PTFE 7mm puller bush
Guru puller bead fitted as standard
Guru Dacron Connector matched to the elastic size
Pre-fitted Hi-Stretch Power Hollow Elastic
Compatible with all current Guru poles
Based on the Guru XS Power 7000 Combo Pole top kit
Ready-to-fish, pre-elasticated design
Supplied in protective plastic tubes
Premium pre-elasticated top kits, ready to fish
The new Guru Power XS Elasticated Pole Top Kits have been developed to give anglers greater versatility when targeting smaller carp, F1s and silverfish, while offering the convenience of a professionally pre-elasticated top kit that’s ready to fish straight from the tube.
Based on the same top kit supplied with the Guru XS Power 7000 Combo Pole, these kits offer the same trusted performance in a ready-built package, making them ideal for anglers who want premium performance without the time and effort of assembling kits themselves.
Built on the same mandrel as the current Guru pole range, every Power XS Elasticated Top Kit is fully compatible with all current Guru poles, from A-Class models through to the flagship Aventus range. They’re an excellent addition for existing Guru pole anglers, particularly A-Class users looking for the confidence and convenience of professionally elasticated spare top kits.
Built for strength and performance
At the heart of every kit is a lightweight yet incredibly strong 30T Tensile Carbon blank construction, offering an excellent balance of durability, responsiveness and fish-playing control.
Each top kit is pre-bushed with UK-manufactured PTFE bushes and fitted with a UK-manufactured PTFE 7mm puller bush for exceptionally smooth elastic performance. A Guru puller bead is fitted as standard, allowing anglers to control the elastic efficiently when playing powerful fish.
Every model is supplied with Hi-Stretch Power Hollow Elastic, carefully matched to its intended application, and finished with a correctly sized Guru Dacron Connector to create a perfectly balanced, ready-to-fish setup.
Three options to suit every commercial venue
The range includes three dedicated models:
F1s & Silverfish No.8 Kit – pre-fitted with Pink Hollow Elastic for finesse fishing when targeting F1s and silverfish.
Carp & F1s No.12 Kit – pre-fitted with White Hollow Elastic, making it an ideal all-round choice for mixed commercial fisheries.
Carp No.16 Kit – pre-fitted with Orange Hollow Elastic for demanding commercial carp fishing where extra power is required.
Each kit is supplied in a protective plastic tube to keep it safe during storage and transport, arriving bankside in perfect condition and ready for action.
XS Inline Pole Float Range
Built for modern commercial pole fishing
Joining the hugely popular XS Cookie Carbon Pole Float, Guru’s new XS Inline Pole Float Range has been designed to deliver exceptional strength, durability and reliability for today’s commercial fisheries.
The range introduces three new purpose-built patterns — the XS Inline Diamond, XS Inline Paste, and XS Inline Margin Diamond — each designed to excel in some of the most common commercial pole-fishing situations.
Maximum strength where it matters
Every float features an inline design, allowing the line to pass directly through the float body. This significantly improves durability while offering superior line control and a more robust setup when targeting hard-fighting fish.
Each body is manufactured from an ultra-tough, high-density foam for excellent resilience and long-lasting performance.
Strength is further enhanced by a thick fibreglass stem and a durable Dura Side eye, ensuring every float can withstand regular use in demanding commercial venues.
Highly visible hollow plastic bristles provide visibility. The Inline Diamond and Inline Paste feature a 2mm bristle for excellent bite indication. In comparison, the Inline Margin Diamond uses a larger 2.5mm bristle for improved visibility and buoyancy when margin fishing.
Finished in a subtle black body design, the range helps minimise disturbance while maintaining a clean, understated appearance.

Ultra-smooth round profile
Outstanding tensile strength-to-diameter ratio
Zero stretch for maximum bite indication
Low-friction finish for improved casting
Dense weave encourages sinking

Advanced braid technology for modern feeder fishing
Developed specifically for today’s feeder anglers, the new Guru Pulse 9 Feeder Braid delivers outstanding sensitivity, durability and casting performance through an advanced zero-stretch construction.
Pulse 9 is built using innovative centre-core technology, in which a calculated braid runs through the centre of eight tightly woven fibres to produce an ultra-smooth, perfectly round profile with exceptionally low friction and an impressive tensile strength-to-diameter ratio.
Maximum sensitivity and casting performance
The centre-core construction produces a braid that is stronger for its diameter while remaining smoother, more durable and more efficient through the rod rings.
The result is improved casting performance, exceptional bite registration, and total confidence across a wide variety of feeder-fishing situations.
Its dense weave, coated finish, and low-friction surface improve durability while encouraging the braid to sink quickly and absorb minimal water.
Finished in a practical dark green colour, Pulse 9 offers reduced underwater visibility while maintaining a tough, hard-wearing finish suitable for regular use.
With zero stretch throughout the line, every indication is transmitted directly to the rod tip, helping anglers detect even the most delicate bites, whether targeting silverfish at close range or larger species at distance.
Complete range for every feeder angler
The Pulse 9 range includes:
0.08mm
0.10mm
0.12mm
0.20mm Braid Shockleader
The dedicated 0.20mm shockleader is designed for long-distance feeder fishing, allowing anglers to retain the sensitivity of a zero-stretch main line while providing additional casting strength and security.
Whether you’re upgrading your pole setup with ready-to-fish elasticated top kits, strengthening your commercial float fishing with the new XS Inline Pole Float Range, or maximising bite detection with Pulse 9 Feeder Braid, Guru’s latest product releases deliver dependable performance, premium construction and complete confidence on the bank.
All products are due for release on Friday, 24th July.
