Looking at purchasing few of there pop ups. Anyone have any particular flavours they have found more successful as there are loads to choose from. Thanks
Had a few on the devil dung in white
assofetida... if ive spelt it right. wicked flavour!
devils dung.. which is the assofatida flavour
Got loads of pots here they are stupidly buoyant and are the top pick for me if I am using rigs that require mega buoyant pop ups. However they are very dense and don't seem to take an attractor very well. I have fished them on the same spot against another pop up of the same colour that had a better attractor package in my opinion and I was getting 5 bites off a crushed cork pop up to 1 off PJP. If your after ultra buoyant go PJP if you don't need that there are better options on the market just my opinion mate.
Orange tuttis in 13mm. Absolutely brilliant.
Don't need to add anything else to them, they come fully pimped and ready to go.

I use the N-Butric, personally I think Proper jobs are the most buoyant in the market.

I like the Squid & Octopus, BP Plus and the Scopex Combo. Never caught on the Devils Dung.
I personally wouldn't bother with the mega buoyant ones - they are just too buoyant.

Another vote for Scopex Combo I have done well on the beige colour ones. Like said they are very buoyant maybe too much so for some rigs as the size of putty or shot to hold them down does get a bit excessive. The buoyancy also doesn't seem to change at all which is likely why people find that they don't take on liquids so well. I don't personally add anything to mine and if in the right place at the right time they always seem to do the business.

I've tried loads and caught on them all. I'd happily use any of them.
The Strawberry Scopex has caught me and my mates several particularly rare carp. Probs coincidence but the fact remains.

I have nothing but good things to say about Proper Job Pop ups!
I have used a few to trial, however I have settled on one now, which is fishy peach in white/pink. Outstanding in my opinion and really don't ever see the need to boost them, even as singles.
Honestly, give them a go, as others have said you won't be disappointed!

Agree on the Fishy Peach. Great as singles and great over bait. The Devils Dung are wicked. Pineapple. All of them. I use the un-flavoured ones for suspending alternative baits and for zigs, they're useful. I'm a cork ball man but whenever I need to use a standard pop up I'll go with Proper Jobs.

Before wafters we're readily available I used to drill out the 11mm PJ pop ups and plug them with putty, they used to be balanced exactly the same after 18 hours out in the lake. Caught very well using pink savoury crab and white squid and octopus.
Recently I've been using the pink pineapple tips on 16mm bottom baits and they are brilliant. I'd happily chuck any of the proper jobs out.

Come to think of it I had a really good season years ago on patshull park on snowman rigs with 10mm white Tuttis. I caught really well for that season on them I haven't used them since. I have no idea why I stopped using them come to think of it

Nutty Maple snowman style with Cell or Nutcracker or similar has been kind to me
Fishy Peach on a Chod likewise - can leave them out for 48 hours without any concerns about buoyancy
They are ultra bouyant and take a bit of putty to hold them down - but this is not a criticisim

Looking at the Fishy Peach myself. You using the 11mm or 13mm's? Just wondering if the 11mms are buoyant enough to hold up a size 4 Ronnie? Cheers

Definitely, even the 11mm'ers would raise the Titanic

Maple cream in white are brilliant, I get a pot and split it in half, half stay as it and half I glug in the Korda almond goo and the go a nice pink colour. They take on the flavour really well and caught some nice fish on these from some tricky venues. 13mm on a chod or hinge with a size 4 seems to work

Just bought three pots of unflavoured.
Added a almond goo to one, maple to another and banoffee to another pot.
Ive had lots on the squids in 11mm, my mate also adds scent from hell to hes.
