I had a goliath sleeping bag off the original owner almost 20 years ago now after hearing great reviews.
200 quid later my bag proved to be crap in winter (and Autumn for that matter).
Turns out he had used a cheaper filling (may as well have been cotton wool) and the company who supplied the top quality filling stopped supplying him due to outstanding payments.

I seem to recall the Nirvana rods were built on Century blanks ? They were 2.75 and 3.5 TC respectively.
Pro-Liver was popular, even Shelley was on it at the time, not that that's any recommendation, Jim's now running moretakes with his original recipes, I found Pro Liver to have a coffee aroma but there you go.

Really like the sound of the sea monster was looking for some feedback

Looking at it, it's a standard fishmeal bait. Nothing out of the ordinary at all. Put it in the right place and it will catch fish just like any other

Any bait from a reputable firm will catch them. Where you put it is the important thing. If you want a good selection to choose from then probably active bait solutions would be a good bet

Buy 5 kilos and just sling it in..
By that I mean
Just walk around the lake throwing them in everywhere so the fish find them and find free safe food.
Then buy some more and put more out in small clumps that might be likely spots sling one out with a hook in and they will eat it without hesitation.
Carp will just eat any old sh1t
sometimes a kebab just fills the need rather than a piece of steak.

This is bait summed up perfectly.
Give any half decent angler any boilie sold they'll catch on it. Baits a confident thing, I'm yet to find a bait that hasn't worked. Certain types may work better on some lakes but as mentioned location is key and regular feed
