Gulp ALive- which one?
« on: Dec 16, 2009, 09:08 AM »
Regularly use the maggots/waxies.  I was looking at some of the other stuff.  I can get 1" minnows, 1" minnow fry, or 1" minnow heads.  Any real advantage to one over another?

I caught a 1.8lb perch with a gulp alive minnow in the open water.... I am sure they will work through the Ice just as well.    Tha thing was a beast!

I have the Gulp Alive in white waxies and 1" Watermelon Pearl colored minnows, as well as the regular Gulp waxies in pink, natural and white.....I don't use live bait...don't need to...the Watermelon Pearl color is my go to color through the ice and open water...walleyes, smallies, largies, perch, rock bass, and even pickerel

I caught some nice big blue gills the other day on the Gulp alive waxies in chartreuse.

I also had a line out with the minnow heads. I had the camera on this line. A bass came up to it and mouthed it. It spit it back out and then shook its head like it was trying to get the taste out of its mouth. It was quite funny to see.

Can't see myself using any of the other stuff, when power bait works just fine for me.  I do use the Alive minnows and they sometimes produce instead of power bait.

I caught 3, 16-18 inch cutties on chartreuse minnow heads. And had numerous bites (none landed  :'( ) with the pink fish fry. I am a believer!

I have had good success on the smelt minnow in gulp alive on lake superior. Started trying them when lake shiners went to 7 bucks a dozen becuase of VHS disease.

Use the minnow heads with pretty good success. Don't seem to matter what color. Does anyone else have a problem with the jars leaking?
