Quest Baits Glug, Dip, Pop-Up And Hookbait Combination Set

I received a press release about the Quest Baits Combination Sets a while back. In fact, you can see it by clicking here. At the time, it seemed like a simple, yet effective idea. Not only was it a way of keeping the smell of leaky pots away from the rest of your tackle, but it also looked like a way of keeping everything 'tidy'. It's funny – most of the carp anglers I know are men and, being men, I bet that if you asked their partners, they're scruffy so-and-so's around the house. However, give them a bivvy and they suddenly become bivvyproud (that's like being houseproud, but with canvas!). I instantly knew that these tubes would be a hit with them.

I took the Liver B8 Combination Set with me on a recent trip and it dawned on me that it served another purpose; not only did it keep my tackle bag clean, but it meant that I had all my matching baits in one place. No rummaging around in the bag! And, to be honest, rummaging around in the bag doesn't always work – I'm forever leaving the one thing I need on the day on a shelf at home! With the matching dip, glug, pop-ups and hard hookbaits in one tube, even I can't get it wrong.

So, my advice would be to buy the £12.99 option that contains all the matching pieces to your hookbait. That way, you'll always have a pretty complete bait solution right at your fingertips.

It's pointless me writing an essay on this product. When all's said and done, it's a tube with some pots in. Even Oscar Wilde would have difficulty embelishing that. However, it is one of those simple little creations that makes life a little bit easier, so I take my hat off to Quest Baits for coming up with it!

The only 'problem' I could find (and it is a small problem), is that sometimes, if you ram the lid on too quickly, the air pressure inside forces off the other end of the tube. This was easily fixed with a dab of Superglue. It wouldn't have been a problem at all, had I not been so heavy-handed. But hey, I am supposed to find faults, even when faults don't really exist!

You can order these tube / pot combos from www.QuestBaits.com. The empty version is £5.49, but my money would be on the 'full' versions being the ones that Quest sell most of, at £12.99.
