gulp minnow heads?

[Boar]

Just came across gulp minnow heads in glow red color. never seen these before an picked some up to hit a cappie lake this winter. Anyone try these with success? Boar

I use them when I don't have live bait and have had success with them in the past. They are a part of my ice bait arsenal

i have them. so far the panfish dont care for them as far as eurolarva. but i have used them for trout under the ice and have some success. smelt like them also. walleys? haven't used them on them yet. good luck.

I used them with good success this summer for panfish, sunfish mainly jigging them on a jigging spoon. they actually were nice in that they stay on longer than the fry type and they have 3 wiggly tails, the sunnies would actually tear those off and you would need to replace it before you lost the whole bait.

I picked up the red, yellow and natural colored ones last season. I do like the option of trading colors as the situation merits, liked the fact that they remain on the hook longer, but saw no real improvement over real minnow heads. When the fish were hungry, they hit both equally. Be cautious about storage, it stinks to spill the juice out all over yourself in the ice-house, literally, the stuff smells.

i realy think you nailed it on some of the gulp products. talking just about the minnow heads they do the job when fish are active. i do use them more for trout that anything elst and have caught rainbows on them along with some smelt . but when things are slow i will go with the real deal or just switch to a bobber and minnow. as far as panfish i have more luck with the gulp tiny hot dog stile maggots in open water above anything, with a flu flu for example. but on hard water euro larve produces much more. in open water i dont even use eurolarve. good luck.

Thanks guys, really appreciate the input. Boar

They must work every time I try to pick some up they're sold out.

I've had luck with the gulp maggots every time i've tried them. Might have to give the heads a try.

I like the idea of glow colored gulp. Especially glow red. I've had more success with the "Fish Fry" then the "Minnow Heads" but haven't sen the Fry in any glow colors.

[Boar]

They really need some serious charging, arm got tired holding them to a light before they would even have a hint of glowing.

Ever have any luck with the camera flash type lights to make lures glow. I've heard about them being used but never seen one in action.
