Hey,

After a massively long hiatus from carp fishing due to living abroad, i'm now stuck back in the UK due to border closures and what not. I've gone and got all my old carp gear out ready to go fish when this lockdown is over.

I've bought a pot of pacific tuna pop ups off a popular UK site and the pot is half empty with only 30 inside, plus the pop ups which are in there can't even hold up a size 6 ronnie. My question is, do CC moore send out their pots half empty and have i been sent wafters or are their airball pop ups normally like this?

Hi mate,
I can't see the image.

The best way to handle this issue is directing it to ccmoore via facebook or mail.
They are very helpful and will sort thing out in a proper manner.

Picture is now added after some annoyance on my end. I'll give them a call now and see if they are open, if not i'll give FB a try.

Cheers

CC Moore pop up pots are always half empty, but they aren't usually that bad for buoyancy. Did you get a little sachet of booster? I only use the northern specials but you get one in there.

My pot of CCM Pacific Tuna pop-ups contained 38 baits. They hold up a standard 360 for 24 hours.

Ok so the quantity is normally, I was used to pop up pots from Sticky which used to br brimming if my memory serves me right.

No booster in the pot, they are on the soft side compared to all of my other pop ups (saying that they've been in storage for 5+ years)...

5-10mm cork fixed the issue. Not happy but it'll do

Just had a message from CC moore and they've said that each pot should contain 50, so maybe we're all being had, lol.

"Looking at the photo you have got wafters there and its strange that you have received a half pot, the only thing I would say on that is out 15mm pop ups and wafters should contain 50 hookbaits."

This is what was said in the email to me.

Using the cork isn't a hardship and it will save you a little money and you only have to carry one pot with you lol

Was hoping for a plug and play kind of approach in regards to bait but i suppose i can live with drilling out and cutting the cork up...such a hard life ha.
Are you sure?
