salokcinnodrog Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Have a search around on the forum, there are loads of threads about Red Band. All I can say it is a great particle mix for fishing over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 most farmers merchants or country stores will sell it, i would think that places like pets at home might as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Didn't see it at Pets at Home, but since Copdock Mill is only 2minutes further it doesn't make much difference to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon34 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Its a top bait, but i only use it for day sessions, i don't like the 2.00am alarm call from Mr snotty(nothings guarantied to bring bream into your swim as much as it).

Bloodworm Pellets and Boilies are worse. 12 Bream in 1 night from my Reservoir. Wouldn't mind as from there the next fish could be a Carp, but when you have to be at work the next day enough is enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Have found the tench to love the bloodworm baits as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon34 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 If there's bream in a water and i'm doing nights i fish and bait up with just 20mm boilies, with double 20mm on the hook, have found this cured the problem on the water i'm fishing and the bream average double figure's and go to 16lb!

sandancer Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 The pigeon seed is top gear, 50/50 with hemp is good way to go I also sometimes put extra maize / corn in and in France add tigers. Seen so many good catches off this stuff from "runs waters " to 50 lb plus fish in diificult French lakes. Loads of potential to pep up with various bits ands pieces, just use your imagination. As for bream I find they will drop on all baits so it is just a thing you put up with it if they are in your lake. On the Bloodworm products , I did notice a massive increase in pick ups from tench when I tried pellets / sticky bait dumbells . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaskilm Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Hi all, I am gearing myself up for some good fishing starting very soon in the NW and so would love to fish over mass baits and particles like hemp have done well in the past. If I mix 50/50 of red band to hemp, how much should i spod at the beginning of an overnighter ?? also is this the stuff from Haiths ?? red band pigeon conditioner thanks lads great contributions as always..

carpoholic Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 If you can, spod out the day before you get there and do a small top up upon arrival. As to the amount it depends on the stock level of the water and how many fish may be in front of you. Start with small amounts as you cannot take away whats been put in and increase as neccesary.

salokcinnodrog Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 At the rate I go through Bait, about a month at the most. Add to the Red Band my pellets, groundbait and Boilies and I shift a whole lot of Bait into my Reservoir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
