Gulp Question
 
I want to store my gulp in a tupaware container. I was curious if there would be any harm in putting them in altogether - the different colors. Not sure if the colors would run or anything like that.

Thoughts/Experiences?


Thanks

Yes no issues just make sure you have a container that has a locking top the gulp juice makes a mess on a boat deck.

Rubbermaid and others have containers with gaskets and seals that work well. I have a few clear ones on my boat and they work awesome. Pretty much leak proof and have had for a few years.

As long as it's all Gulp and in Gulp juice you are fine. Just don't try to add Z-man Elaztech or anything else in there.

idk how nobody mentioned this.... most colors are fine together except white... most other colors will bleed into the white ones and so basically you will no longer have a shiny pearl white, but a duller off-white

also, the gulp juice will seep through most rubber or plastic seals on these lids after a bit so make sure they are stored upright.

side note, i've found that the other gel scents rubbed on other less expensive plastic lures works just as well as the gulp and don't rip in half when a fluke looks at it the wrong way haha

I fluke fish pretty hard with some very good fisherman .
There ABSOLUTELY isn’t one single plastic lure using the procure , fin essence etc that outfished gulp .
It’s all been tried , but gulp hands down catches 10 times more fish .

And you will also see some if those companies making competing products are pulling their stuff off the market .

I use gulp 50-75% of the time, but i've definitely gotten annoyed with it, switched to other stuff and continued catching at the same rate (as well as a few times starting better catching). nothing in fishing is 100%, i wish it was, then i wouldn't have to buy 5 different versions of crap at the tackle shop haha.

I agree as there are times when I’m not doing as well as I feel/think I should be doing and will switch out a GULP for a Zoom Fluke or a Zman paddletail that I’ll dab some Pro Cure Flounder Pounder Gel on on start catching almost immediately it seems.

BUT was it the lure , the scent or the CHANGE of action using a different style tail ?

Most guys only fish one or two styles of gulp .
Conditions warrant using more than that .
Grubs , mullets , nemesis , paddle Shad’s can out produce the other tail styles at different times .

.

Same style grub (both 5 inch jerk shads)

Same conditions

Now you might be able to argue scent but aren’t both GULP & Pro Cure scented (not sure if the Pro Cure Flounder Pounder scent is the same as the GULP scent but Pro Cure also come in a variety of scents)

They both use a totally different type of scent .
Gulp material allows juice to totally soak inside it .

The stuff procure uses is made to stay on the outside .

Washed out gulp does not catch as well as freshly saturated baits do .

Reason I asked if tail was different as I have seen days here where they won’t touch a grub tail .
But the paddle shad gets pounded .
On slow drift days the nemesis will usually out fish both the grub and the paddle shad .
.
Conditions and what their forage currently is sometimes dictate what will produce best .

yeah, could be anything.... could even be all in our heads for what we know haha. some days i'll just stick with what's not working if it's worked in the past and it will end up saving the day towards the end. who knows. my gear is usually a hodgepodge of random different styles and brands of plastics so it is what it is i guess.
