Probably the most successful single carp attractor of all time.

Robin Red HB is a superb hook bait (lure) ingredient. Its unique smell and taste have tempted literally thousands of carp since the 1950s. What makes Robin Red so attractive to fish? This debate started in 1950 and hasn't concluded quite yet!

In case you weren't aware, HB stands for 'Hook Bait'. It is the original Robin Red as opposed to the new UK/EU, All Natural version, which, is intended to be used as a high attract base mix ingredient - you can find Robin Red Natural here

Ken Townley: "I guess most of the bait buffs out there have known for some time that our original Robin Red contained a synthetic dye that was intended to colour the plumage of show birds such as canaries. Now that synthetic product is no longer permitted to be used in animal feeds so as a result we have had to find alternative food colouring that is 100% natural, hence the new Robin Red." 

Robin Red has been around for several decades and it is rightly recognised as one of the most attractive ingredients of all time. First recognised as such by carp anglers in Kent, through the writings of Fred Wilton and Ian Booker, it was then adopted by many of the small 'garage' bait firms that began to spring up in the late 60 and early 70s. Rod Hutchinson lauded its praises in his books, and in magazine articles, and Robin Red has not looked back since. Now widely available throughout the UK and in Europe, this ingredient is slightly different to its cousin, Robin Red UK/EU in that the colouring agent is different. 

Robin Red® is a registered trademark of John E Haith Ltd (Haith’s). Look for the "approved" logo or check our list of "approved bait firms" before you buy a Robin Red bait.
