Not a problem Andy. Get yourself an elastic band, extending bank stick, and a john roberts butt grip.
Screw butt grip into top of Bankstick and slide the elastic band below it so that it is on the stick.
Chuck out said beechcaster rig and then sit your reel strut into the grip so that your rod is vertical. Get your elastic band and then slide it over the butt of your rod. This will keep your rod vertical.
No problems.
I tend to do depth of swim plus around 7 nose to finger tip lengths then adjust accordingly sliding my stop knot up or down.
