Forgot they were still trading (in fact I thought they'd stopped). Caught me plenty over the years. If you want super buoyant nothing comes close.

Yeah, I buy and use them regularly. I really rate them, just had an order delivered. Looking forward to using them.

I got three pots recently during a splurge on pop ups also for surface fishing, and they look good.

One of the pots I got was the Scopex, and I must say the smell is not as 'scopex' for me as the incredible Forgotten Flavour pop ups.

Re: Scopex
You purchased the “Scopex Combo” which is a blend of Scopex, Squid & Octopus plus other goodies.

I was spending too much on putty trying to sink the super bouyant ones

Good pop ups and done me well over the years - the devils dung and cheese were great

Proper jobs are the most buoyant popups out there

I use them on chod rigs where I have a string of leadcore to hold them down. Brilliant pop ups some great well proven and trusted attractors. They are just as many have said over buoyant for some rigs. I would use them all the time but find I go to less buoyant pop up for lower presentations due to needing less putty to hold them down. I think if Kevin did some that where more spinner/ronnie rig friendly (less buoyant) or maybe even wafters they would be a real hit as the flavour and attractor profiles are spot on.

Brilliant hookbaits. Can't be beaten for buoyancy imo.

Not used them for a long time. Still have some pots in the garage. The mega buoyant ones I ordered by mistake. Unnecessary imo but great for floater or zig hookbaits as I've used them.

My favourite was the Matt orange banana pop ups. Don't think he does them anymore though. Caught a fair few on those.
Are you sure?
