Q&A
Looks ALIVE, tastes ALIVE, feels ALIVE – because your bait actually "lives" in a natural, super-charged solution! It's softbait in a bait bucket! Because these super-realistic biodegradable Berkley® Gulp! Alive®! Minnows actually "live" in a high-octane Gulp! solution, they absorb up to 20% more attractant. That's 20% more scent, more taste, and more reason for fish to snap them up! Each super-charged Gulp! Alive! Minnow bait disperses its potent essence like a blood trail in the water, and when you're done catching, you can simply put your Gulp! Alive! Minnow back in the bucket to recharge for another day! The Berkley Gulp! Alive Baits are sold by net weight and not by count. The 11.2 oz. bucket of 3'' Gulp! Alive Minnows will contain approximately 36 baits, and the 12 oz. bucket of 4'' Gulp! Alive Minnows will have approximately 22 baits. The Assortment option offers 4 different colors in one bucket; sorry, specific color requests cannot be accommodated.

works for TroutI Started experimenting with the Gulp Alive Minnow last spring to target trout in moving water. I fish these rigged on a jig head under a bobber. The results have been phenomenal. I can't imagine going back to live bait.

Really don’t like to tell people but....Have used the gulp alive minnows for maybe five years now and have told a very few friends and acquaintances how great they work. Fortunately only one fishing partner has started using them as well. I guess for Some reason people don’t believe me.Good! More for me. Seriously, try them!

Assorted BaitsThe baits look great. 3****'s only because I have not fished them yet, and Berkley needs to resolve the leaking container once opened. Just can't seem to prevent the bait juice from seeping out.

Fish slam it!I use these for crappie and they love it. They are better than live minnows and you can catch fish after fish with just one until they bite the tail off.

Been Working GreatI don't like to mess with live minnows and tried these. They have been working. I trail them on a small jig and spinner and have been catching more fish than with other artificials, especially walleyes and crappies. I have tried the 2.5, the 3, and the 4 inch ones in more or less natural colors. The 2.5 seem to be most effective all around size. I tried the 4" and caught a nice eating walleye, then went to the 2.5 and caught at 23" one.
Getting where I think I could get by with a selection of these minnows and a small plastic organizer to hold my jigs and spinners. They are softer than other plastics and less durable but hole up better than live minnows on small nuisance fish. I also believe that they are made that way to offer a more realistic bite as the instructions say fish them like live bait.

Best bait EVER!We were using live bait and we were on the bluegill fast n furious. not wanting leave the fishing area to go get more bait I dug into the tackle box. I pulled out the chartreuse Gulp 1''. The bluegill went crazy over them! They actually bit better/faster/more aggressive than they did on the live bait. I am a believer in the Gulp products! I can't stress enough how well they work.

Gulp minnow black shad 1"When the crappies are on, casting a 1 inch Gulp black shad minnow with a 1/32 oz chartreuse jig is the bait to use! In the spring and the fall, this combo outperforms minnows on a bobber hands down! Even in the summer evenings, when I get sick of bluegill fishing, I'll catch crappie on this combo as a nice change from the routine.
Also, on occasion, I have picked up an walleye and bass on this combo.

what is the best color to get?
Asked by: TAL640
Thank you for your inquiry. The best colors to use will greatly depend on what kind of water you're going to be fishing this lure in. For example, if you're fishing in muddy or murky water, use colors like Chartreuse Shad or Emerald Shiner because those are brighter and will have better visibility in that type of water. In clear water (and preferably on clear days) colors like Smelt and Black Shad work well.

How many in a Bucket?
I just used the Gulp 3" minnow's this morning that I bought by the pack. Was wondering if anyone had a rough idea of how many 4" minnows come in the Gulp Alive Bucket? Just trying to do the math before I buy them.
THANKS

How do you rig these?
Tried fishing with these a few times but I get nothing. How are you guys rigging? What kind of retrieve?
Asked by: wy125
Mainly on a jig head, but also Carolina Style. I also fish them in the TN river with HEAVY current. There I will fish them on a bottom drop shot rig and let the current provide the action. There are some good rigging instructions on the back of the packs.

will this work good as bait on a bobber
Asked by: peterw811w
You can but the bait is meant to be moving to get the fluttering action going. The fluttering is what attracts the fish. Bobbers can limit that fluttering action and make the bait move less naturally.
