Robin Red is a carp bait additive that has had an incredible effect on carp catches for decades, but its recipe and how it works is surrounded by controversy and relatively few carp anglers use it to its full potential. Discover some clues about it and its very effective use here…

Robin Red is an original formula from Haiths based in Cleethorpes UK. Included in their best-selling items are these well-known bait ingredients: Hempseed, Carpticle Mix, Multi Mix, Super Red, Prosecto Insectivorous, Robin Red, Red Factor, Nectarblend, soft Bill and Red Band. Having many years in producing leading specialist bird foods, this experience and such products and many others have been extremely productively applied to catching carp!

Robin Red is a legendary additive and has been known to transform poor catch results instantly. Many of the bird food items mentioned previously have been incorporated into bird food based baits and have been ideal having such digestible and open textures to deliver the stimulation and attraction of Robin Red in baits extremely efficiently. Robin Red is available from endless bait companies but my advice is before you go buying loads, get a small sample from hinders first and them you will be better placed to judge if a bait company product is at least near to the real thing, is the real thing or an outright fake; but only your actual fishing results on each of these will truly tell you what is best to use of course!

So many commercial ground baits and readymade boilies and pellets contain Robin Red that it may be that using a homemade bait without it means your personal unique homemade bait is the only bait that does not contain it at your water! Using a bait with very low levels or even no Robin Red can even work in your favour as carp might well regard it as an indicator of potential danger these days on pressured carp waters. In doing further research on this product you will discover ways to incorporate known components of it into your baits and make your bait effective while avoiding using robin Red itself…

You can apply Robin Red to any boilie, pellet, ground bait, fake or live bait etc as it will penetrate and even dye red most things. Dampening it with Ccmoore red Venom will make Robin Red seriously ideal for neat PVA product use or when using method mixes, sod and stick mixes etc with Robin Red in… Liquid Red Venom is a great partner for the very granular Robin Red and both are outstanding for all year round uses and applications (and especially winter-time…)

The formula of Robin Red is secret but what it does to fish is not! Certainly Robin Red is confirmed by Hinders as not containing Carophyll red pigment, but what about other bioactive pigments, such as cantaxanthin? How many carp have been observed to turn a reddish colour at fisheries where Robin Red is applied regularly in even moderate levels; this has made many of my winter fish look amazing!

Homemade boilies benefit even form just an ounce per pound of dry base mix of Robin Red, and even the cheapest soya and semolina mixes are boosted significantly by the highly nutritional stimulation of Robin Red. To boost your pellets, wet them with any liquid even water, and add Robin Red; the red clouding of the water around your bait will certainly improve results when fishing for sight-feeding carp too. Haiths have a mix call Super Red incorporating Robin Red, (which can even be applied in PVA products in neat dry form,) and it contains the following great ingredients:

In Super Red is Robin Red, Red Factor, crushed hemp, aniseed oil, crushed tiger nuts, Carpticle mix, peanut granules and teasel seeds. This sounds really good, but this is just one combination of many you can formulate yourself to save yourself a fortune and maximise your catch results; so now read on to find out more on how to really do this yourself and catch loads more big carp…
