Fishmeal already included
MarineRed™ takes away much of the early formulation work. The fishmeal, Robin Red® and oils are already combined in one consistent blend. You control the preparation and presentation according to how you want to fish.

Use one · Make a paste
MarineRed™ already contains the fishmeal, Robin Red® and oils. For paste, your job is to combine it gradually with beaten eggs until the texture can be shaped around the hookbait without becoming sloppy.
See the original Reds guide →

Beat the eggs thoroughly. Add any permitted liquid attractor according to its own instructions.

Work the dry blend into the liquid gradually until a firm, workable paste forms.

Flatten a pinch in the palm and position the hook and hookbait before folding it around them.

Check the finished presentation in the margin and keep unused paste sealed to prevent drying.
The other three routes
Add water in stages and build the texture required for your feeding plan.
Work towards a stiff, sticky mix that holds around the feeder for the cast.
