I tried the gulps last year at kiptopeake. We fished 6 lines in various depths, 4 eels, 2 gulps, caught 4 fish between 8-11, the gulps never got touched. I looked at them when they were in the water next to the boat and they just didnt have any action the way we were fishing them, Seems like they could be effective on a large jighead though....
