| | I like 1/4 ounce for fishing potholes... I like the contact it maintains, especially in windy weather. |

Well if you didnt know,snook are scavengers,therefor i would much rather have the sent and presentation than just presentation,but thats just my opinion.  correction very large snook are scavengers. The rest are ambush predators. any fish will take a free meal. and the other thing gulp is artifical bait. everything else is artifical lure.

| Use gulp a lot and at least give it a try at every spot. 1/4 jig head and 3 in. bodies(i like shrimp) and any color will do the job most likely.

| I think the reason you tend to think doa shrimp produce more larger fish than gulp is because so many smaller fish will go after the gulp while they wouldnt go after the doa, therefore in a situation where there are numerous small fish and a few larger ones with them (trout would probably be the best example) i would use the doa so i wouldnt have to deal with the rats as much... doa used to be all i used for close to a year, then gulp came out and i rarely go back except in certain situations... saturday around 8:00 pm i landed a 38 in snook on a gulp shrimp, and then 4 more between 16-22 while my friend fishing with me using a doa throwing in the exact same holes caught nothing but jacks and a ladyfish.. i havnt been fishing for 400 years but at least in my experience gulp has treated me much better  |

| everytime ive fished it ive lost half the bait within 10 casts.......damn puffers and other little fish that just nibble.....i can see it being a great bait for sight casting fish, but i wont use it again to locate the fish.....

| i definately agree with saltwater cowboy on this one. i have caught many reds on gulps including my biggest to date which was 31 inches. Also i have caught many snook on gulps however, live bait is the best i believe, for snook. i def reccommend gulps over any other soft plastics. all you need to do is put it on a 1/8 -16 jighead and either dead stick it or bounce it off the bottom. and you will have some fun.
good luck |

| My uncle uses it, caught 20 snook in a secret spot we have while the day before i caught 2 on doas. i don't use gulp may need to try it. only thing i throw is doas, highrollers, and mirrolures. Plus gulp is expensive, epecially since it drys up on me after one use, maybe the alive is better. Also John at John B's in stuart said that it's heavy enough as is, just use a lazer sharp worm hook so it's weedless too.
