SuperRed™ for fishing

SuperRed was developed by Ken Townley to be used as a ground bait, paste bait or (when ground down to a fine powder) as a complete Make Your Own Boilie base mix. This is what Ken had to say when we asked him about this product, one that he considers to be his  'baby'.

" There are many things in my carp fishing life of which I am very proud, but I think developing SuperRed is my proudest moment as this is the best groundbait/Method Mix/boilie ingredient I have ever used. When I first began messing about with various Haith’s ingredients at the factory I wondered if I would ever get the balance right but eventually I managed to get the package 100% spot on. The result is SuperRed, in my opinion the most complex and effective carp- and tench-specific groundbait ever put together. Just look at what it contains: crushed Red Band, a multi faceted seed blend, crushed hempseed, crushed tiger nuts, peanut granules, teasel seed and aniseed oil. In addition it includes 10% Robin Red HB, and Red Factor to act as a binder. Can you find any other groundbait that matches that specification anywhere else in Europe, let alone in the UK?"

There is no limit to the number of uses to which SuperRed and its close relatives, NaturalRed, MarineRed and HoneyRed can be put. They were specifically formulated with this versatility in mind, hence the tag "Three-in-One".

A little trick that maybe has flown under the radar of many of you is the use of paste bait made using water rather than eggs. The four 'Supers' are tailor-made for just such an application, and there are a number of advantages to these:

• No boiling so leaves ingredients and attraction intact and unaffected by heat. This is the prime advantage of this method.
• Less labour intensive and less expensive.
• No eggs needed, as these blends will bind using water rather than eggs, so they are less expensive.
• Air-dried they harden like bullets after about four days or so. Caty- and stick-proof.
• But will break down to a soft paste after a few hours on the lakebed18-24 hours in the water.
• Once dried they can be used in much the same way as boiled baits but will break down quicker. You can even use one as a hookbait if you use a mesh of some kind. Stockings or tights are ideal for meshing your hook bait.

This bait features the new Robin Red (UK/EU) natural. As a result of this improvement, you will notice a slight colouration change which will be a little less ‘blood red’ in colour and a more natural-looking ‘rust brown’ instead.
