I’ve been fishing for 60 years and I realized many years ago that most fishing tackle, lures, baits, rods,reels etc. are designed to catch fishermen not fish!
-
I was scammed into buying a fishing pole. They said I would catch fish. Maury Povich determined that was a lie.
-
I fish with numerous soft bait. On the average, we catch way more fish with Gulp than any of the others. That's over a 25 year+/- period.
-
The only scam with gulp: When gulp first came out they were very tough, we used the shrimp and could catch 20-30 trout on one if you had the right style jig head. After a year or two of them taking off in sales they changed the formula to a much softer material. They are still very good, but can be expensive when they tear up every 3 trout.
-
Those gulp containers leak so bad it works. But the scent washes off pretty quick and the teeth on the coast will tear a plastic up. Soaking some plastics in some sardine oil makes a good slick too. And then you get to eat the sardines
-
I understand what you are saying about the marketing. It’s really bad lately, I would say because of the popularity explosion of fishing since Covid. That said,in the noreast and specifically for fluke fishing. Nothing beats gulp. There is a reason why everyone switched to gulp and very few people are using live or dead bait anymore. It just works and it’s backed up by testing. Albeit anecdotal. My 2 cents. Great video!
-
The only issues i've ever had with gulp is that 1: I catch EVERYTHING with it and 2: that scent is STRONG and it's hard to contain it in any container, even the air tight ones.
-
One factor you are dismissing is that Gulp is biodegradable--other plastics which fish swallow, or break off, or line break simply add more plastic to the sea. One study found the bottom of a lake bed chock-full of plastic lures.
-
In my opinion, I feel like if you're going to compare "gulp white curly tail" you need to compare it with another similar lure like a white curly tail non scented from another brand to make it an accurate comparison.
-
What pole are you using???? That seems perfect for my type of fishing. I’m looking for something lighter than the heavy duty plug rods.
-
You nailed it at 13:25; confidence in what you are fishing makes a huge difference and utilizing collective knowledge of other fishermen is also a huge factor. Keep teaching man, you do great at it.
-
I fish more freshwater, and love lures. There's a lure for every application, every water condition. I don't need to pull a whole cart's worth of equipment with me either; just one rod and a waistpack is enough.
-
I love the gulp swimming minnow baits for trout, flounder and redfish. (I love the white/pink and the chartreuse colors, and also the "new penny/chartreuse" color. Sometimes even under a popping cork. Many times I've switched to Gulp after getting no hits on other baits and immediately start hooking up. The only thing I hate about them is that if you allow them to dry out on the jighead, they are tough to remove!
-
Love The videos! What size jig head are you using here?
-
overpriced fishing rods and reels are the worst scams... mid prized variants work just fine, brands just overprice them to make them seem better.
-
Is your deeper chirp 2 still showing water temp? Bought one 2 weeks ago and it does not show temperature.
-
Great vid, I enjoyed that. What sort of rod are you using?
-
The tail should Always be placed on the jig with the tail Down. It has much more action on the fall ... !
-
Red head and white body. Universal in soft plastic and hard lures. Saltwater or freshwater. Here in UK. With or without liquid scent. You can add any liquid scent to your lure. Doesn't have to be GULP! P.s. I'm not paying 6x's the price for Gulp products in the UK. 50% of that price is import duty.
-
It really depends on the moment. If I’m by myself, I use lures. I love the Z-Man slam shady, 4” paddlerZ - they come pre-scented as well. I used Gulp many times before, but if a flounder hits that tail end - it can bite it right off. When I’m with my friends, and we’re drinking, I use the high-low rig (I make my own) or live shrimp using the Carolina rig.
