i bought a few packs of the gullickson beaver tail bait last year and i tried them about a dozen times. i'm not even sure if i caught a fish with them. a few different location, plastics and live spikes are catching panfish with ease, put this stuff on and nothing. rigged and jigged it in a number of different ways. i found it this year all dried up in my bucket. tossed it. won't get any more of my money.
