Chug Bugs, Green or grey depending on how bright a day it is. I keep a couple of different sizes in each color.

They've even hit it just drifting under a CT behind the boat - and not just little fish, plenty over 20". It looks sorta like a poorman's DOA shrimp. :thumbup:

That gulp stuff is too $$ for my taste....I lose too many lures to spend that kind of dough on a soft plastic.
One good thing about the gulp is they seem a lot more hardier than standard soft plastic baits, and thus last a lot longer. I have had luck using the cut bait gulp fishing it as strips under a CT as I would cut pinfish. Last a lot longer too.

another gulp fan here, I've had the best luck w/ the specks on a "freshwater gulp", that looks similiar to a green/white fin S.........don't be skeered to try the 'bass gulps' in the salty stuff......it's the same thing 8)

Haven't tried the shrimp gulps yet, but have heard nothing but good things around here, even some of the guides are using them instead of live shrimp... :wink:
