hi to you all. have only been carpin for a short time and have decided to use quest baits(if its good enough for shaun harrison it'll do for me!). my question is : is it better to mix and match boilie and pellets in different flavours ie. fruity trifle and rajah spice or should the combinations be the same?? apologies if this is really silly-we all start somewhere!!!!

You can do what you like with bait as long as they like whats going in.Afterall how many people fish banana boilies over chilli hemp and sweetcorn or fishy fishmeals over trout pellets...all different tastes and flavours but all proven carp catchers

PS dont buy the ready rolled Quest baits they are good but boy are they expensive be a skin flint like me and buy their base mix and roll your own....been having quite a few on their gear over the last 12 months...(with a few little extras here and there )

cheers for that deano.have never rolled my own bait-is it idiot proof or do you need the culinary skills of gordon ramsey to get the right mix??

Making bait is a ball ache mate why do you think so many people dont bother! Its not too hard after some practice and once you have the kit but it takes time but saves a lot of money.
I would pass on the Quest baits ready rolled mate and save yourself a few quid and get some bait from SAE baits off Scotty on the forum..cheaper than Quest and good baits.I have had a few on them this year as well mate...

whats your thoughts on leadcore re fish damage. have heard both sides of the arguement and cant make my mind up
