Berkley Gulp! Minnow Fishing Soft Bait

I’ve been using Berkley Gulp! Minnows for a while now, and they consistently outperform other soft baits in my arsenal. Whether I’m targeting bass, crappie, or walleye, these minnows get strikes fast—even when live bait isn’t doing the trick!What I Love:✔ Lifelike Action: The swimming motion is natural and enticing, especially when jigged or retrieved slowly.✔ Powerful Scent Dispersion: The Gulp! scent formula draws fish in from farther away—it really makes a difference, especially in murky water.✔ Easy to Rig: Works great on a jig head, drop shot, or even under a float—super versatile and beginner-friendly.✔ Durable Enough for Multiple Catches: While softer than some plastics, I can often catch a few fish per minnow, especially with good hook placement.✔ Outfishes Live Bait (Sometimes!): In the right conditions, this stuff is more effective than the real thing—and you don’t need to keep it alive!Minor Considerations:➖ Strong Smell (to Humans): The scent is potent, so be ready for it—and maybe store them in a sealed bag.➖ Can Dry Out Fast: If you leave them out of the package, they can dry up quickly, so seal the bag tightly after each use.Final Verdict:Berkley Gulp! Minnows are a game-changer—especially when fish are being picky. If you fish freshwater and don’t have these in your kit, you’re seriously missing out.Highly recommend to anglers of all levels! 🎣🔥

I hate using live bait. These are just as good as a live minnow. However, they are not very durable. You probably get one or two fish before they are completely destroyed.

Bass love em

They work great for river smallies. I wish they held up longer. You can run through a bag pretty quickly.

These bad boys are a staple in my tackle box! They catch bass. They catch walleye. They catch panfish. They catch catfish. They catch perch. They catch steelhead. I know this because I have caught them all on these. They are versatile. I've caught fish with these on a bobber, without a bobber, bottom rigs, wiggling and jerking, and even with a gulp maggot rigged with it. The size you get determines the fish that hits. Good quality, heavy but not too much. It stinks good so the fish like it. Great value.

Use a 2.5” gulp minnow with a trout magnet 1/32 oz dart/hook and it catches fish like it’s the best bait ever made. Only good for a couple fish before you’ll need to replace it, but still a GREAT bait!!!!

They use to last alot longer,still catch fish,but you lose bait after one or two fish old ones were good 8 ,10 fish,maybe more

Crappie's love these .
