For a broad carp search, the most useful starting point is bait and feed. Bait-Tech Big Carp Method Mix (2kg) is a strong option for method-feeder fishing and keeping carp grazing in the swim.
If you want boilies, Poacher Baits Fruit Frenzy Boilies is a classic fruit-style choice, while Poacher Baits Tiger Nut & Maple Boilies is a versatile all-season option.
Poacher Baits SV1 Boilies is aimed at big-fish anglers, and Poacher Baits Red Squid Boilies gives you a pungent squid/shrimp profile that can be a good change-up when carp want a stronger scent.
Switch away from these bait-first options if carp are showing but not feeding, or if you need a more visual presentation in snaggy or pressured water. In that case, try a different hookbait style, pop-up, wafter, or a more mobile approach rather than just increasing bait volume.
