Great to hear the bait is back and even better to hear jase's philosophy on messing with ingredients within the bait.
One of my pet hates is bait companies tinkering/exchanging ingredients in established baits without telling the user. Soon you can be using a bait with the same name but one that has barely no resemblance to the original bait... Not mentioning any names....
No idea about cork ball pop ups but I can't see how they can in anyway be any better than the cork dust pop ups that are currently being sold.

They are more consistant & bouyant for the size, than a lot of cork dust pop ups on offer.

Not aimed at DNA in particular but I think anyone would be naive to think most established baits are the same as when released. Yes they may have the same ingredient list as they did originally but that doesn't mean it's the same ingredient from the same supplier or that that named ingredient is the same as the last (that can be a better thing too), fluctuations in crop, or sourcing location can mean a different product sold as the same.
If anyone wants custom S7 cork ball pop ups Matt at UB Baits could probably help, or you could get the S7 base and make your own. Personally I'm quite happy with the S7 cork dust pop ups.

DNA do offer corkball pop ups but I think they are currently only available to testers.

I don't know much about baits to be honest but a mate of mine swears by the DNA s7. I've just returned from a 24hr works social, 6 of us on a local lake and about 20 carp between us, my mate with the s7 caught 12 of them and they all were bigger fish than what us others caught. Now it might just be coincidence, swim choice, better rigs etc but its certainly made me think about trying it. Hope that helps.

advocate team members can buy them cheaper,I assume the testing was done before it got to the dna advocate members being able to buy them.

I think its fair to say bait is only part of the jigsaw but i have noticed a marked improvement in my catch rates since using the s7. Could it be coincidence? Possibly but it doesnt do the confidence any harm.

I am not suggesting one minute that seasonal variations do not occur when using natural ingredients but thats a little bit different to completely changing the make up of a bait whilst keeping the same name, leading your customer base to think they are using the same bait they have been buying year on year but in fact are using a bait which is only the same in name and nothing else.

My worst fear and pet hate
Funny how when I make basemix it's exactly the same week in week out

I like DNA baits but can say the photo of SLK on their website is quite dissimilar to the last few kg I have in my freezer

They are also doing some post free deals at the moment, just ordered 5kg of S7 with hookbaits posted
