Does anyone know if absorbing your other soft plastic baits in the gulp juice works? Sure would save me a lot of money if it does.

It can't hurt. The "flavor" will probably fade faster.

Of course, I would recommend the real thing first, but the Gulp! liquid can be soaked up by regular plastic baits although I do believe menhaden oil can be just as productive. I like to add a bunch of plastics in Ziplock bags full of menhaden oil especially this time of year and when in Louisiana. Also, menhaden oil is, perhaps, less expensive than the Gulp! liquid. Don't tell anyone I said that!

Gulp! plastic material probably holds the scent and liquid better than regular plastics, though. Maybe because they are bio-degradeable, but I'm not a scientist!!

I dont care for Gulp but a buddy of mine tried it with mixed results. Some of the soft baits soaked up the juice just fine, but the others started to fall apart. If I were you I would test it out on a couple different baits. He was catching fish on the baits he let soak in the gulp juice.

I tossed a few DOAs in the juice and forgot about em. Looked in the bag a month later and the hooks looked a wee bit rusty.

Just a little info on Gulp for you guys. Gulp is not a plastic it is a bacteria. The smell that the Gulp produces in the water is built into the bait. The juice in the Gulp alive containers and in the bags is all for marketing and keeping the bait fresh. Gulp juice does not stick to other soft plastic baits. I talked with a berkley rep the other day and they have done numerous tests on them. If you soak a regular plastic bait in Gulp! juice the sent will wash off after a few casts.

So when we dip other soft plastics in them and they seem to fall apart afterwards what is that? bacteria eating it away?
