Title: Gulp and bait, perfect together.
Post by: gottog on August 06, 2007, 04:35:49 PM
Been using Gulp products since their release, heck, still have quite a few of their predassesor, Inshore Power Bait ;)

Usually just tip a bucktail with the Gulp swim mullet aka grub, but will say my last two trips recently, when adding a short strip of real squid, the catches were greatly improved.  Plain grub caught fish, but seemed to attract smaller fish.  Plain squid got hammered by seabass and "lost" quickly.

Both together produced much better results, a limit up to 6# and some seabass on one trip and some nice fluke in the 4-6# range topped off by an 8.5# flattie on another.

Seabass do bite the tails off these things rather quickly.  Did hear rumor of a 6" version coming out t^

I always add a very long strip of squid with my gulp also.

Works well with live killie and especially a live spearing along with it.

8.5# fish caught on 8/4/2007

Shirt would be cool TT^ Thanks!!!
Let me know what other info you need.

Been doing better with short strips actually.  Too long and they like to fold over on the bucktail.

Oh, someone confirmed, 6" Gulp swim mullets/grubs available.

Haven't seen it myself, but was told that they got it in a B&T around Pt. Pleasant.  Trying to track down the person to steal, I mean see a few of em ;)

The 4" just gets lost on a 3 or 4oz Spro.

Good info for sure.  Gulp Alive continues to be the hot new bait of the year.
Title: Re: Gulp and bait, perfect together.
Post by: Luna Sea 5 on October 04, 2007, 09:24:08 AM
Yeah, I saw this stuff.  Its like $35 for a large jar.  It seems like there are alot of bait in the container.  It looks like a good deal since you can put older ones in there.

You know Nick since everyone on this site has got me into Gulp I'm intrested to see if anyone has any good reports on the Gulp Chum Bucket  t^
Title: Re: Gulp and bait, perfect together.
Post by: Luna Sea 5 on October 04, 2007, 12:22:47 PM
i will not use the gulp chum.  I like using my grinder and making my own fresh chum, and the gulp can be rather expensive also.  I do like there products for fluke...  TOP NOTCH..

Post by: mboy on October 04, 2007, 12:54:00 PM
I "may" give the gulp chum a try. A bit expensive BUT the container is resealable, so can me used on more then 1 occasion.

U know I am a big gulp fan.

Did anyone notice what the Gulp chum bucket sells for????
Title: Re: Gulp and bait, perfect together.
Post by: mboy on October 04, 2007, 01:12:28 PM

It works great in the suds honestly.. There are a couple of ways I use it fishing from the beach,, I use either a football jig head or a small bucktail White/ chatruse/ or pink, usually 1/2 oz up to an ounce..I will tip those two jigs with a 4" swimming mullet, white/chartruse/pink or a 4" pogy mullet.. I have some great days fishing these patterns for fluke..Try them You may catch all keepers but you will catch a lot and more than likely have some keepers mixed in.. t^

I know they work off the beach what I was talking about was the chum pots.  I was wondering if weighted and thrown off the beach if they would attract larger fish to come in.

I have used bucktails for a while not and they work great.  I use the SPRO pattern tipped with a white grub or a pink Fin-S and have done well.

Happy Catching

Sorry Paul,  I misread you.. The Gulp chum looks interesting.. I wonder if it works for flounder or even stripers..

I got a small bucket from a seminar I took over the winter I will be trying later in the season for stripers off the beach.  The only problem it will attract every dog fish for miles around as well.
