Default Clogged Spout

Having trouble with a clogged spout in a small Yixing pot - it's about 80ml.
Doesn't have the internal clay strainer.

Have been drinking various tuo cha lately at work and they all seem to be
very 'bitty'; seem to have thick bits of stalk that regularly clog the
spout. Haven't had this much bother with any other loose or compressed
pu'ers using the same pot. My Wu Yi and other oolongs are fine.

Is it just the bitty nature of tuo cha that doesn't like this particular
pot or am I getting ripped off with poor tuo cha?. Tea tastes/looks fine
otherwise.

I'm thinking about getting a slightly larger pot, say 100ml with a bigger
(diameter) spout and orifices.

Cheers
