DNA pop ups (30 posts / 3,248 views)

I've been making my own pop ups from the BAF ingredients recently, but they are a bit on the soft side and until I can tweak my mix I need a short term couple of pots to tie me over.

Has anyone got much experience of the fluro DNA pop ups? What are they like for smell? Have you had much success on them? Are any better than others? What are they like if you add a booster liquid? I've had terrible problems with sticky's pop ups turning into wafters if you try to load them up with booster liquid.

Thanks for any replies.

I've started using DNA this year and the popups have worked well. I've only got the match the hatch s7s and the half tone s7s. Both have done me fish and still been buoyant at the end of a 24 hour session. That's just straight out of the pot though, haven't boosted them myself

Do the half and half's still smell after 24 hours or have they leaked out to nothing by then?

Baits turned up today. Look nicely rolled. Definitely good value, I don't think they could have got any more in the tub if they'd stood on the lid to close it. Given them a good dose of the booster liquid. Very happy.

Couldn't agree more. I've not managed to get a pop up out of the pot without spilling half of them on the floor yet!

They certainly don't skimp do they. I think that's the most amount Of baits I've ever received in one tub. As a recent convert to DNA I have to say every product I've tried so far has been impressive. I'm really pleased I made the change. For quality and value they are gonna take some beating.
