Understanding Fishing With Gulp Baits

Sometimes fish will not take the live bait you have offered to them on the end of your line. The sport of fishing often times requires a Plan B. A vision of fish floating to the surface after a stick of dynamite is lit and thrown into the water briefly clouds your thoughts. However, since you are fresh out of explosives and would prefer living to fish another day, you reach into your tackle box and resort to Plan C, otherwise known as Berkley Gulp bait.

Instructions

1 Study the species of fish you intend on catching. Educate yourself on fish feeding habits so you know what they typically feed on. Most Berkley Gulp baits are formulated with specialized scents for either freshwater or saltwater fish. If you are fishing for walleye or trout, then purchase Gulp bait formulated for freshwater fish. Read the package containing the Berkley Gulp bait, as it should provide information regarding what species of fish the bait is recommended for.


2 Choose the type of Berkley Gulp bait corresponding to the fish you wish to catch. For example, if it is catfish that you are seeking to catch, then implement the use of Gulp catfish bait that contains scents formulated to attract this fish. There are also specialized Gulp baits for trout, crappie and a variety of other species.
3 Apply a popular fishing technique associated with using the line of Berkley Gulp products. Read the package containing the bait; it will likely recommend special fishing tackle needed to complement the Gulp bait presentation. An effective approach to catching catfish using the Gulp bait may involve placing the bait on a large, multibarbed hook--or treble hook--and attaching a sinker that would enable the bait to reach the floor of the water being fish. This is because catfish are notorious for being lazy "bottom feeders." Conversely, when using Gulp bait for trout fishing, a more sensitive approach should be assumed because they are more active when feeding. Finally, you may consider consulting your local bait shop owner regarding the most successful and up-to-date fishing strategies in the area.
