Product Information
Full details
The Korum Mega Bander is designed for anglers who struggle with the manual process of attaching pellets and barrel-shaped baits to their hooks. By simplifying the application of Korum Mega Bands, this tool provides a consistent and efficient way to prepare your rigs, even with slippery or cold hands. While it is an essential piece of tackle for those who value speed and precision, it is specifically optimized for use with Korum Mega Bands and may not accommodate all aftermarket bait bands.

Troubleshooting
The band is slipping off the gripper arms
Ensure the band is seated correctly in the notches of the gripper arms before releasing the plunger.
The plunger feels stiff or gritty
Rinse the tool thoroughly in clean water to dislodge any bait particles or dried groundbait that may have entered the spring mechanism.
The band is stretching unevenly
Check that the band is centered correctly on the four arms before inserting the bait.

To maintain the tool, rinse it with clean, fresh water after every session to remove silt, bait residue, or lake debris.
