A few questions about Gulp. 

 

First. How does everyone rig the gulp minnows to target bass? Ive used them on a drop shot with good success but have to fight off sunfish from biting the tails off. Ive used them under a bobber before with ok luck. 

 

Is there really a difference in regular Gulp and Gulp Alive? Is it just the juice or the plastic itself? Ive got a pack of regular ones and thought about buying some gulp alive juice to recharge them. 

 

Or am I wasting my time on something better used for Panfish and need to stick with regular plastics? 

They work great for bass. Alive is just them in a tub. Which is very nice as they won't dry out.  One if my best and maybe under the radar techniques is one rigged on a 1/4 oz darter head. Jigged off the bottom with short hops.

 

They would work well on a ned head too.

You know I was thinking about a ned head earlier. Good minnow profile and kinda drag and small hop it to look like a feeding minnow I thought.

Split shot rig is like a C rig but split shots and no swivel and leader?? Ive heard the name but never tried it.

Slow lift and let it fall 

A 3" Gulp minnow on an 1/8oz ballhead was my Ned rig before I knew what a Ned rig was.
