How to tie a hair rigged bait band

[@serbanhari]

For me u are one of the best fisherman ever..

[@matchfocus]

Thats very kind of you to say Alex!

[@thesouthpawoutlaw1073]

So...It seems you can teach an old dog new tricks! Brilliant mate. Thanks

[@allenmcclellan7887]

HI Paul great stuff mate very helpful especially when you go behind the camera I can relate to the knots much better this way being a left hander

[@wombleoggie1]

Thanks for this video, I've been able to tie my first perfect hook length!

[@davidsmith2663]

Hi Paul l watched your video on tying bands on hair rigs and l have to say l couldn't see why you do it that way. There are many different approaches but after tying up your way l have to say how much sense it is doing it this way. True it is a bit fiddly if tying thicker lines but it is possible with a bit of patience and l use a magnifying desk lamp to help.

Thanks David, hopefully i will be doing more videos like these soon.

[@MrScoob1988]

nice video mate really good job

[@19thewanderer]

Nice one Paul. well explained.

[@TheMikearnhem]

thx good video

[@fishit3279]

Great instructions

[@shaunabbey8435]

Very neat why don’t pre tied hooklengths come like this?

[@markgillard856]

Brilliant, I'll try this later...cheers

[@jeffreyshaw]

Could you show us how you do your lasso hook lenght ? cheers Paul.

[@mynamesnotdave695]

Tie the band first then do a knotless knot..... Could've told you that for free.

[@matchfocus]

It was free My names not Dave...?

[@patrickwalker2509]

Thanks Paul....just completed several hook lenghts (MWG's) after looking at you video several times....cracked it now! find the last pass through sometimes tricky but I think ok now. Not so sure about QM1's tho', especially with thicker lines...can you do it? I think the eyes are slightly smaller

[@markpartington6551]

Top video, Best way to tie bands very secure and neat, nice one paul

[@geofftweedle8678]

Hi paul, do you find the loop with the band on gets pulled in when tightened?

[@matchfocus]

Hi Geoff, You need to use a line which is a polymer. Most new lines are co polymers which basically mean they are coated to make them smooth. Personally Daiwa tournament rig line is brilliant and won't slip.

[@geofftweedle8678]

@Match Focus I see, been using the preston accu power thats why

[@baldrickscunningplan6154]

I just bought one of those Guru Hook boxes. Not very impressed to be honest. The orange plastic makes seeing the line almost impossible. Black plastic would have been far better. Secondly the box is difficult to open unless you have long nails. Even more difficult if your hands are wet. The catches on the box are very difficult to open cos they are so small and fit tightly together.

Well done got it in one. I have seen a lot worse even after they edit it so keep it simple and save your money for fishing not edit software!

[@Branno46]

Sorry mate tried it for 3 days still no different it doesn't work or its me had 7 runs (carp ) lost all 7 left with curly pig tail line ,going back to my hair rigs .

[@Branno46]

Sorry mate doesn't work with me ,band comes undone as its not knotted on, and the loop tyre the loop comes undone looks like curly pigs tail xxx terry

[@alanweir37]

Best instructional video on youtube for a new angler. Thank you very much. Other vids I have watched assume that you can get to the band already on the line. Nice one paul.

[@matchfocus]

Send me a message on Facebook Terry and I'll talk you through it

[@steveellerby6986]

That hair rig is brilliant, I will be try it 😀

[@matchfocus]

Let me know how you get on Steve!

[@williamstevenson676]

Thanx for taking the time to put these videos together

[@ihcfn]

Nice, like the d rig in carp fishing, plenty of movement for the bait. 👍

[@trevoror8668]
