Anyone have a recommendation for Red pop ups?

Looking for a good deep Red, nothing fluro or washed out. Not interested in the big brands Mainline etc as quality is not the best.
Must hold a size 4/2 Ronnie up for a min 18 hours.

Have you had a look at the Proper Carp Baits Hot Squid pop-ups. There are nice deep red and stay up for a long time.

I've not personally fished them with a size 2, but on a Size 4 are still popped-up after 24 hours.

PJPU do loads of flavours in different colors, there will definitely be some on their website. And they're the most buoyant pop ups out there. Use with confidence.

How about getting one of the cork ball packs and rolling your own. Only takes half an hour to make a load when the paste is done for you.

Essential B5
Baitworks Atlantic Heat or Monster Red
Trent Baits SAS squid

All a deep red.

Proper job, squid and octoplus, great pop up caught lots on that flavour 👍 they also do mega bouyant versions which will hold anything up for 24hours plus , the ordinary ones would probably be sufficient for your needs to be honest.
Are you sure?
