This is a great technique, which can also work with boilies and meat. pellet band on a hair is very versatile, you can also use it in the normal way for pellets (no shit, Sherlock!) but also worms and maggots and my final tip is mould paste around the band or pellet in the band and then mould paste around that (absolute killer!).
Totally agree. Used this method for hooking corn for both pole and feeder fishing and it’s great. You’d think with the shock of the cast on feeder the corn would come off but it doesn’t.
@BobsBitsOutdoors no problem, it's more about how it pulls the hook into the mouth when it's threaded through the bottom first, we all have our own ways of doing things tho, tight lines buddy
Trust me it works. The bait band being elastic, expands inside the piece of corn. I’ve used extensively and not lost a piece. Quality tinned corn works best. Choose your grain carefully if you have problems with it coming off.
Brilliant, never thought of using a band this way. Thanks 👍
Thanks. I can’t remember how I discovered it but I’ve been using this method for years. It’s so quick to re-bait as required.

One hooklength to rule them all. Pellet band on hair rig :)
Quality, never thought of doing it that way! 🙄 simple is best!
Funny thing I have been doing that this year? No Idea why I tried it but it does work!
It does save a fair bit of time. Especially when feeder fishing.
Briljant 😊. Thank you.
You’re very welcome :)
best way ever
Hook my corn exactly the same a band is best because you can just swoop to a pellet if need be

Fishing banded corn at approximately 50 metres…roach were loving it…never once came off.
@@simonmountford4291 excellent 👌! It’s got to be my favourite method for corn by far. Good work on the roach!
Always thread your line through the bottom first not the top when using a knotless knot
Thanks, I’ve not really had any problems with breakages. Fishing for carp max size of about 8lb on commercials.

Cool idea but we all know corn can drop off any rig at anytime but feeder fishing with regular casts like 10mins this could be devastating 😢

No faster than using the quickstop hooklengths.
Yes but not everyone has those in their box and it’s extra expense if you already have bait bands or banded hooklengths to hand.
do u pull band just out of corn enough to get needle out ???
Yes that’s right. The band opens up inside the piece of corn and holds the corn in place. Tight lines
Thanks il give it a bash at weeknd ..😁
Why do you explain and show everything on black so many of you do that ?
The background is the side tray off my fishing box. That said quite often the line we use is transparent but shows up better over a black background.
