Default New Gulp

JUST A LITTLE CURIOUS IF ANY ONE ELSE IS DISSAPOINTED IN THE NEW GULP
WAY TO SOFT, NO JUICE, AND A PLASTIC TRAY

I GOT A COUPLE OF BAGS AND WENT THROUGH THEM LIKE CANDY.
SEEM ALL A FISH HAS TO DO IT TUG ON THEM AND THEY ARE SO SOFT THE HOOK TARES THEM UP OR THE FISH DOES.

we just noticed that there is no juice also, but you can buy the juice. It is probably another gimmick so they can charge more.

New gulp is as big a useless waste of money as old gulp.

We have been getting complaints from customers who have used nothing but Gulp! over the years! Seems there just may be something off with the latest product!!

My advice is to call and email them to let them know that you are unhappy with the changes. When they get it from multiple customers, it usually gets attention.

No doubt that Gulp! has been an incredible product. Whatever the problem is, I am sure they will resolve it, once they are made aware.

Berkley made them this way for two reasons, 1.) you can not have a bait that lasts too long and they are in business to make money. 2.) Customer Feedback. The customers reported that the old gulp was way too stiff and didn't act right in the water so they changed it.

There you go. I heard this very same complaint a few years back. Would hear how hard it was to get off the hook and how people would hook themselves trying. No matter how hard a company ties, they cant keep everyone happy.

Me....... I like the old stuff better, myself. But I see both sides and can appreciate both sides of the argument.
