Picked these up on ebay. Called "crappie tubes". 100 for $7.99. These are glow but there are other colors. Make for and easy tail on the small 1/4 to 3/4 oz jigs.

They will def work. Have used similar tubes in chart on jigheads and caught fluke with a killi. This was before i started to use gulp and bucktails.

We use and sell something very similar and they will work very well. Soak them in some Gulp! or some type of oil such as bunker oil and they will work just as good as the expensive stuff!

Have tried soaking other plastics in gulp juice and fished them hard for one full year. Found that the reall gulp product outfishes other platics soaked in gulp juice by a wide margin.

I agree with this.....BUT......the soaked stuff out fishes the plain plastic that is not soaked. ;)

In fact not much beats the original Gulp! The old Gulp seems to have been better than the new stuff. I have bags that are 5 years old and they work better than the newer formula that was used in 2012. ( just my findings).

Buy local, especially from our sponsor shops..Do you think that the guys on ebay or cabalas or bass pro will give you little tips like Rich, Tom, Ray, Max and Pete will give you? ( sorry if I forgot someone) ..Plus maybe give you a discount on what you buy...OUR shops need all the help that we can give them NOW..
