Ok, my interest has been peaked about using Gulp products.
Anybody have a good place to buy them? Or are they about the same price everywhere?
-
Prettuy much the same. But look for the rebates they can range from $5 to $10. Here at the shore in SSP Grumpys is running a sale but 3 get 1 free.
Good Luck
Paul

Hey Gulp Lovers!!!
Any insight on what the favorite colors, sizes and types of gulp bait the flounder / fluke prefer. How about Fishbites? A little further south the fluke really enjoy them!
-
i like the 4" swimming mullet for fluke, white or green
-
Killed the Fluke on the 4" swimming Minnow (looks like a grub) in Chartruse with a Killie or Sand eel
-
Chartreuse or pink 4" swim minnow (even use with live peanuts) and in back bay, 4" new Penny shrimp is DEADLY, especially as your teaser when jigging or even dragging bait.
Shrimp worked well for me sea bass and weakfishing as well.
Also caught sea bass on swimming minnow with killie and the sand worms work well weakies too.
I will be experimenting with more shapes this year (jerk shad, pogey, maybe even the new eel they have out).
I am a BIG gulp fan and won't go fluking without any.

Tony, you might be able to find a good deal on GULP at the upcoming Somerset Saltwater Expo.

4" Swimming mullet in white, pink, chartreuse & pumpkinseed for river and inshorre fluking. Bump up to the 6" version for deeper water.
3" shrimp in the new penny pattern deadly for fluke.
-
haven't had any success with the sand eels as of yet...
-
I favor the 3" and 4" swimming mullet in white or chartreuse......on a jig, I like the larger...on a teaser, the 3"
-
the mullet works for me with a long piece of squid on a bucktail.
-
The fish I go for are too smart to fall for a gulp bait. At least that's what I tell myself because I can't hook up with a fish using the gulp. TT^
I know people swear by gulp, but I have not had a huge success with it. It is probably because I don't give it much of a chance to work more so than that it does not work. I always go back to real bait. Just a psychological thing. ;)
-
We had little tunny on the big (8") black Gulp eel 5hrug right off the Ammo pier last yr. on a hothotday in the middle of the afternoon.... Totally unexpected... what a fight, leaping thru the air, etc. Them boys are FAST.
Other than that, 3" and 4" swimming mullet in white or chartreuse as mentioned, also in combination with squid or a killie. Deadly...
-
The 7" Jerk Shads and the 6" Grubs are killers for the stripers. Work them or Jig 'em and the big bass can't leave them alone. I like any color as long as it's chartruce, But give them some time and effort and you will outfish live baits even HERRING.

Anyone know if any gulp works well for winter flounder?

works for everything

Last year on a flounder trip, I used the pinched off tails from 3" Gulp!chartreuse swimming mullets. Threw the heads over the side. The tails caught flounder with a clam combo.
At the end of the day, the mate filleted the boats catch and 2 of the heads thrown overboard were in the stomachs of 2 of the flounder. I might try a small sliver of the chartreuse cut bait as an R & D experiment this season, although the "flutter factor" won't be there. We'll see.

flounder is the only thing I have not had luck w/ .I tried them on a couple trips last year and it never produced for me or the guys on the boat
-

That's my game plan. If not, I'll order from the link given.
-
I tried the trout bait in yellow for flounder and didn't get a touch.
-
They have a new 6" lugworm I am going to be trying in chartreuse this season for fluke.

Myself and a few other of my fishing buddies haven't been too impressed using GULP for winter flounder.
Fish Bites seems to work better.

Only species it has failed for me with. Failed miserably too. Even when tipped with real bait they did not produce. Took off the gulp and just use regular bait(sandworm and/or clam) and caught fish. Back to Gulp and Gulp with bait produced nadda. Back again to just bait and caught fish.
Did hear that when the water is real cold the scent dispensing properties of Gulp doesn't work too well if at all 5hrug
For fluke, seabass, blues, stripers, weakies, ling, searobins, skates, dogfish, etc...Gulp kicks butt though TT^

Thanks, i had picked up some gulp sandworms and was wondering how they would be. I have had good success with the gulp strips for fluke
-
Sandworms are great for weakies. Also caught fluke and even a couple of bluefish on them in the very back bay.
-
as far as gukp not working in the cold waters I know people that use it through the ice and I use it all winter in the streams and lakes and it works great but for some reason flounder dont like it ,I tried it many times thinking it would be great but it isnt any good for them

GULP sandworms (especially in new penny and natural color) kick butt on weakfish. They also do real well with porgies if you cut them in half.
-
I used pieces of the Gulp! natural sandworm last fall and kicked butt with porgies.

Tackledirect.com will have evry style and color, i'm sure. Probably no the cheapest but if you need a odd pattern or coloration they will probably have you covered.

New to the aresenal
Will be picking up a bottle of squid & crab scent in a few days.
-
the chartreuse swimming mullet works the best for me.. white works 2nd best, and the gulp squid the tan color works third best.... the mackeral is horrible. never got a chance to try the gulp sand or bloodworms? yet... ;D

What do you do with that suff spray your lures?
-
What do you do with that suff spray your lures?
I intended to spray on my teasers (unless I'm already using a GULP product as a teaser).
Should provide a nice scent to a clouser minnow. I also have a bunch of non GULP plastic shrimps that the shrimp scent should add some extra punch to.
First time I saw this product being used (crab scent) on openning day, the angler was spraying it on his strip bait/spearing. He totaled & keepers and at least a dozen shorts. Come to think of it, he was also using a 2" GULP swimming minnow threaed above the snell of his hook.
