Sonubaits Bandum Wafter Banoffee is a highly effective bait that has evolved from the concept of wafters, initially embraced by specimen anglers and later adapted to cater to match anglers’ needs. Introduced by Sonubaits in 2014, these smaller-sized wafters have undergone changes in flavours and colours over time, but their fundamental principle remains constant.
A true wafter should possess the unique ability to float while slowly sinking when paired with the weight of a hook. This delicate balance is what makes it a wafter, enabling it to waft enticingly when fish are feeding. As a result, when a fish takes the bait, the wafter rises more swiftly than a standard bottom bait, increasing the likelihood of hooking the fish.
It’s crucial to validate the wafter’s performance before use by checking how it behaves in a tub of water. If it doesn’t achieve the characteristic slow sink with the hook’s weight, it’s not a genuine wafter but rather a conventional sinking bait that won’t function as intended.
Sonubaits’ Band’um Wafter Banoffee is specifically designed to counteract the hook’s weight, positioning itself between a bottom bait and a pop-up in terms of buoyancy. This makes it an excellent choice for use with a Method Feeder, where the Band’um Wafter hovers just above the bed of pellets or groundbait. When a fish feeds, the Band’um Wafter swiftly enters the fish’s mouth, resulting in more rapid and frequent bites.
One of the Band’um Wafter’s unique attributes is its suitability for use with bait bands. Its cylindrical shape with bulbous ends allows easy banding using a Pellet Bander or Bait Bander, with the bait band fitting snugly in the middle slimmer section of the Band’um. This positioning ensures that the hook is perfectly situated just below the bait’s centre, leading to increased hooking efficiency. Additionally, the Band’um is less prone to being dislodged from the hair, enhancing your fishing confidence and efficiency.
The Band’um Wafter is also an excellent choice for pellet waggler fishing. Its slower sinking rate compared to standard baits allows it to spend more time in the feeding zone, providing carp and other species with additional opportunities to take the bait.
Sonubaits Bandum Wafter Banoffee have earned the trust of many fishing experts and are suitable for various species, including Carp, Bream, skimmers, and F1’s. The Banoffee flavour, combined with the diverse colour options, ensures you have the versatility needed to adapt to different fishing situations. Experimenting with colours can be a useful strategy to determine the fish’s preference on any given day.
