RG Baits – Arctic Crab Range – Premium Marine-Based Carp & Barbel Bait
If you’re looking for a bait that oozes quality, screams natural attraction, and has the kind of pulling power that can turn a quiet swim into a feeding frenzy, the RG Baits Arctic Crab range should be right at the top of your list.
Packed full of top-grade marine meals, natural crab extracts, squid hydrolysate, and essential feeding triggers, Arctic Crab is a bait built for serious anglers. It’s rich, salty, and fishy – the kind of scent that cuts through silt, weed, and even strong river flow. It’s proven all year round, but its digestible, soluble profile makes it particularly deadly in colder months when other fishmeals slow down.
What’s In The Arctic Crab Range?
RG Baits have covered every angle here – whether you’re a carp angler on big pits or chasing specimen barbel on the Trent, there’s a product for you:
-
Boilies – Available in both freezer and shelf-life versions. Freezers are perfect for campaign anglers looking for maximum freshness, while shelf-life boilies give you convenience and longevity without losing attraction. Sizes from 12mm for match-style feeding up to 18mm for big-fish rigs.
-
Pop-ups – Highly buoyant, visually appealing hookbaits. Perfect for fishing over baited areas or as a single hookbait for wary carp. Available in matching Arctic Crab colour or washed-out tones.
-
Wafters – Critically balanced hookbaits that settle naturally over your feed. A proven edge when targeting pressured fish.
-
Hard Hookers – Super-tough hookbaits designed to last for hours, ideal for rivers, nuisance-fish waters, and when you need maximum confidence your bait is still fishing.
-
Pellets – From micro 2mm for method feeders and PVA bags up to chunky 8mm for loose feed or spod mixes. Marine protein rich with a fast leak of attraction.
-
PVA Bag Mix – A blend of crushed boilies, micro pellets, and fine marine meal powders. Ready to tie and chuck – perfect for quick-hit attraction.
-
Liquid Attract – Thick, concentrated marine and crab extract designed to coat baits, soak pellets, or boost groundbait mixes.
-
Liquid Food – A nutrient-rich, amino-loaded additive that clings to your bait and pumps out a feeding signal for hours.
Why Arctic Crab Works So Well
This isn’t a bait built from cheap fillers or overpowering synthetic flavours. The Arctic Crab range uses:
-
High-grade fishmeals and marine proteins – easily digested and high in natural oils.
-
Real crab extract – not an artificial flavouring, giving a deep, natural scent.
-
Soluble feeding triggers – release quickly in all temperatures, making it an excellent cold-water choice.
-
Balanced nutritional profile – keeps fish coming back for more without overfeeding.
The result? Fish recognise it as a safe, natural food source and will actively search for it long after the first bite.
