Combo Bait with Quads the Hot Number Right Now

 

Here's a carp that was landed
today on a Quad/maize
combo on the hair rig.

Though small, I've been catching good numbers of carp this week. My hot bait has been a combo bait of a kernel of maize along with a pink or white Quad on the hair rig.  I am using no method ball since the turtles and horned pout have bee super attracted to it.

I wrote about Quads last year.  These are little square boilies that float, and they are made by Mainline Baits in the UK. Big Carp Tackle sells them here in the US.  They come in pink, white and green colors. They are scented with a sweet, rosy smell.  I've been catching mostly on the white and pink and have had little success with the light green. I'm using these in combination with a kernel of maize at the end of the hair. I suspect the Quad gives the bait some lift and the carp find this appealing.

The pink and white Quads have been most effective for
me.  They are fished on the hair rig along with a kernel
of maize.
