Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Carp anglers fishing compact PVA presentations. It puts a ready-made helping of savoury feed close to the hookbait, without needing a big baited area.
- Anglers who want less bait-mixing faff. The moist bag-and-stick format gives you a straightforward starting point rather than a shopping list of separate ingredients.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers feeding large amounts throughout a session. A 1kg bag-mix pack is geared more towards small parcels than repeated heavy loose-feeding.
- Anglers looking for whole bloodworm. This is a blended loose-feed mix containing bloodworm extracts, not a supply of whole bloodworm.

Quick verdict
A tidy choice for compact baiting
If you like a small PVA parcel beside your hookbait, this makes plenty of sense. Its moist texture, bloodworm extracts and soluble attractors give it a clear job: concentrating attraction around one mouthful rather than spreading loads of feed.
The appeal is convenience and a ready-made savoury mix, not guaranteed extra bites. It suits bag-and-stick fishing nicely, but bulk baiting and bargain-basement feeding aren’t really its brief.

The stated bloodworm extracts, marine proteins and soluble attractors make a convincing purpose-built ingredient package, though physical consistency hasn’t been checked.
Its intended use across bags, sticks and compressed distance parcels offers useful flexibility, with actual underwater behaviour still untested here.
Concentrating feed beside the hookbait has a sound tactical role, but there’s no demonstrated catch advantage for this exact mix.
A ready-made moist mix cuts preparation faff for anglers who already know their way around PVA.
The convenience is useful for small-parcel fishing, but pack consumption and the unconfirmed selling price limit a stronger value claim.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the CC Moore Boosted Bloodworm Bag Mix
There’s something reassuringly simple about a little PVA parcel. You cast out, the PVA melts, and your hookbait has a helping of feed right beside it. No need to carpet the swim or turn a quick evening session into a baiting campaign. CC Moore Boosted Bloodworm Bag Mix is aimed squarely at that approach: a moist, red/brown loose-feed mix for bags and sticks, supplied in a 1kg pack. It’s a ready-made option for anglers who want the attraction sorted without getting every tub in the bait cupboard involved.
The bloodworm bit is more than just a name on the pack: the mix contains bloodworm extracts. Alongside those are fish and shellfish products, amino acids derived from marine proteins and a high content of soluble attractors. CC Moore describes a natural bloodworm aroma and a deep, savoury taste. That puts it firmly in the natural-food-style camp rather than the sweet-shop corner of the bait shed. We haven’t used it on the bank, though, so this is a look at what it offers, not a tale about a brace caught before breakfast.
The main draw is how neatly it fits a focused presentation. Rather than scattering feed across a wide area, a bag or stick lets you keep a small amount close to the hookbait. That can be a sensible approach when you’re casting at showing fish, dropping onto a known feeding spot or trying for one bite on a short session. The mix won’t find the carp for you, mate. But once you’ve found them, it gives you a straightforward way to offer a little food without committing to a big feed.
Its moist character is relevant here. This isn’t simply a dry dust you have to turn into something usable before you can start tying sticks. It’s sold for PVA work, including compressed distance bags, which should appeal if you like a tight, compact parcel. Just keep expectations sensible: suitability for distance bags doesn’t mean any bag you make will suddenly fly like a bare lead. Shape, overall weight, your tackle and your casting all still matter. A tidy package beats a lumpy, loosely filled effort when you’re trying to stay accurate.
On the rig side, there’s no need to get precious about matching every last flavour. A bloodworm-themed hookbait is an obvious pairing, but this mix can also sit around a contrasting wafter or pop-up. The useful question is whether your hookbait behaves properly once the parcel has broken down. Check that the hook is clear and the bait isn’t lifting more of the rig than you intended. With any PVA presentation, a quick check in the margin can save you sitting behind a setup that looked cracking in your hand but settles badly underwater.
Year-round use is part of the brief, which makes it more versatile than a mix you’d only reach for during warm-weather feeding spells. In winter, the sensible starting point is usually a smaller helping, especially if bites are scarce and there’s little sign of fish getting on the munch. In warmer conditions, you can adjust the parcel size or feed around it if the situation calls for it. Don’t treat the soluble attractors as a magic switch, though. Water temperature, fish location and the amount of other bait already out there still shape the session.
There are a couple of practical catches. A 1kg pack is convenient for modest parcels, but big solid bags and frequent recasts will work through it much faster. It’s also a loose-feed blend, not a replacement for whole boilies or particles when your plan depends on leaving plenty of substantial food on the spot. And while the mix itself is intended for PVA, that doesn’t make every liquid in your bucket suitable. If you fancy an extra glug, choose a PVA-friendly one and check compatibility before tying up a whole batch.
So the appeal is pretty clear: less mixing faff, a savoury bloodworm theme and a format built for close-quarters attraction around your hookbait. The unanswered bit is how it compares with your current mix on your water; we can’t honestly settle that without bank time. If you already fish bags and sticks, it’s a sensible candidate for that role. Keep it cool, dry and out of direct sunlight between trips, start with a modest amount, and put the effort into finding a proper feeding opportunity rather than expecting the bag to rescue a poor spot.

Our take
Think one mouthful, not a mountain
The useful bit here is placement. A little parcel of feed tucked around your rig can make more sense than another scoop of bait when you’re fishing for a single chance.
Bloodworm attraction is the theme, but don’t confuse that with proof that carp will choose it over everything else. Put it where fish want to feed and get the presentation right first.
What you’re buying
A ready-made mix with a clear job
Inside the 1kg pack is a moist, red/brown loose feed designed for PVA bags and sticks. Bloodworm extracts give it its theme, while fish and shellfish products, marine-protein amino acids and soluble attractors round out the attraction package. That tells you what kind of bait it is. It doesn’t tell you how quickly a particular carp will respond, and there’s no honest shortcut from an ingredient list to a catch prediction.
The stated suitability for compressed distance bags is useful if you prefer a tight parcel rather than a bulky bag. Keep the finished shape neat and make sure the complete casting weight is appropriate for your tackle. There’s no confirmed underwater breakdown time here, so don’t assume the feed disperses instantly or hangs together for a set number of minutes. Your PVA, water temperature and how you pack the parcel all deserve a check.
Worth knowing. Moist and PVA-friendly aren’t opposites. This mix is intended for PVA use, but adding water or an unsuitable liquid can change that. Try a small parcel with your chosen PVA before prepping a load for the session.
Your kind of fishing?
Best for anglers keeping the feed focused
This makes most sense if bags and sticks are already part of your fishing. Think short sessions, small feeding spots and casts at fish you’ve actually seen, rather than automatically reaching for another spod. You can use a compact parcel as the main helping of feed or as a little addition to a wider baiting plan. Neither approach removes the need for a suitable landing area and a rig that settles properly.
It’s less compelling if you’re happy making your own mixes or mainly want to put a lot of food out. Convenience is part of the attraction here, and whether that’s worth the money depends on the shop price and how quickly you get through it. Without a confirmed price, there’s no basis for calling it a bargain. Compare pack costs and likely usage, not just how tempting the bloodworm label sounds.
For colder sessions, keep the initial helping modest and watch for signs that justify more feed. During active spells, you’ve got room to change your approach. Either way, keep the pack shaded and properly closed between uses. Looking after your bait is dull compared with a screaming take, but it’s a lot better than leaving a perfectly useful mix baking beside the bivvy.
Bank-side questions
PVA, winter use and hookbait choices
Can a moist mix go in PVA? In this case, yes: bags and sticks are its intended uses. The important distinction is between using the mix as supplied and changing it yourself. Extra liquid needs its own compatibility check. For a solid bag, also watch for anything damp on your hands or tackle that could damage the PVA while you’re filling it.
Is it a winter-only bait? No. It’s recommended for year-round use. A small parcel can fit a cautious winter approach, but there’s nothing about the intended use that confines it to cold water. Adjust feeding to the fish and conditions rather than assuming a seasonal label should dictate the size of every bag.
Must the hookbait match? Not at all. You can stay with a savoury bloodworm theme or use something contrasting. What matters mechanically is how the hookbait and hook behave together, including after any soluble part of the hookbait coating has washed away. Check your finished rig in water, keep the hook point clear and don’t mistake a matching label for a properly balanced presentation.

What anglers want to know
The stuff you’d ask your mate on the next peg. Straight answers, no waffle.
01Can you use it in PVA bags even though it’s moist?
Can you use it in PVA bags even though it’s moist?
Yes. It’s specifically intended for PVA bags and sticks. Moist doesn’t automatically mean unsuitable for PVA, but any extra liquid you add needs to be PVA-friendly. Check a small filled bag before making up a batch.
02Is it suitable for winter fishing?
Is it suitable for winter fishing?
It’s recommended for year-round use, so winter is within its intended role. Start with a modest parcel when feeding activity is limited, and let fish activity guide any increase. Soluble attractors aren’t a promise of cold-water bites.
03Do you need a matching bloodworm hookbait?
Do you need a matching bloodworm hookbait?
No. A matching hookbait is one option, but a contrasting wafter or small pop-up can also be used. Check the buoyancy and hook presentation with your actual rig rather than choosing by flavour alone.
