I've been using sticky manilla/krill all of last season. Fancy a change. Is S7 as good as its seems?!

Through winter smashed it on the manilla won't be varying from that but just not feeling the krill

Krill is a bloody good bait

I find the complete opposite. I've used both for a few seasons. I'd pick the krill over the manilla any day.
I've actually dropped both this year and if we actually ever get out fishing again this year my plan was nutta/switch combo for spring and slk/s7 combo for summer and autumn.

The krill is a much much better bait than manilla.
S7 seems decent but the krill is tried and tested for about a decade

Baits to much of a personal thing for you to get a straight answer to the questions.
Its a good bait, I've caught well on it everywhere I went last year (when I moved onto it).
I gave them a try due to show deals and overall positive comments I've read on the net. Plus I think there is a very good range of products to go with the boilies. I have always included a large amount of liquids in my fishing and there is a very good range with DNA
I could rattle off several other highly rated baits that I used in the past that all catch the same amount and are just as effective.

Maybe it's just the hype around the DNA.... I've used the manilla all winter and in 5 sessions had 20+ fish and 2 PBs.
Maybe ill go with the krill then as I still have a 2kg left. I'll soak and prep it for when we finally get out.
I might have a look at dna liquids then to maybe compliment the krill..... What about hook baits? I've got alot of mainline pop ups/wafters... Few sticky.....

I have brought some myself to try this year along with the SLK, I didn't get out but my friend had 4 on 2 short morning trips before the lock down over a mix of the two baits.
Most of these modern baits seem more than up to the job, they list the ingredients and there's plenty of stuff in there to get the fish interested and keep them coming back.

Not sure about any hype as I don't really do social media, never used Sticky either so can't compare, but I have used S7 since it came out, it has caught very well for me here and abroad, it's also a good winter bait. I have no affiliation with DNA, I returned to angling to find Nutra Baits all but gone so with heavy heart gave S7 a try and I rate it as highly if not more highly as NB of old, for my own purposes.
EDIT, Having said that I've not done much in the U.K the last 2 years, perhaps S7 has blown...I wouldn't risk it :-P
