I was taking too many tubs so bought one of the ridgemonkey modular hookbait pot things a couple of years back to force myself to cut back. I now use the 4 pots separated by color - yellow, orange & pink with the final glugged bottom baits (brown) with a mixture of baits in each one that I top up occasionally. Great bit of kit IMO
I'm obviously carrying too many
3 match the hatch in bottom, wafter and pop up
2 same attractors but bright colour wafter and pop up
4 alternatives for over bait, 2 wafter 2 pop up
2 high attract pop ups for single hookbaits casting at showing fish
1 corn shaped toppers
There must be others as I make that 12 and I'm sure there's more than that in my bucket.

I was carrying pots in my rucksack. A dedicated hookbait bait crammed so I could barely zip it up and often extras in my bait bucket as well as what I was leaving in the van. I realised it was nuts so I've forced myself to only carry what I can fit in the fudge monkey trays. Everything else now left at home. The only other hookbait I will allow myself is to rob a couple of tigers from my spod mix.
I feel liberated. :-)

I take 3 pots.
16mm aqua bait hot shrimp cork balls
16mm aqua bait hot shrimp balance bottom baits
16mm stoglemans pilgrims for fishing in shallow water to keep the birds at bay.
I've not caught a carp on a bright hookbait in over 5 years so stopped spending money on them and saved it for takeaways instead 😂

I have around 12 pots of dna hook bait pots from hi-viz pop ups & dark (match the hatch) pop ups to various pots of bottom baits.
I also have 5 pots of boilies in various liquids as I'm a big fan of glugging baits,they've been for me and give me confidence in my type of fishing
