Fish Finder Reviews And Fishing Tips

I have always enjoyed the thrill of fishing with artificial lures, mostly because you stand a much better chance of getting a good size fish to hit an artificial lure, and I normally leave live bait fishing to my kids so they can catch pan fish all day long. But perhaps my one complaint using artificial lures was the amount of times I would miss a fish due to a short strike where I could not set the hook in time.

It is with this in mind that I set out one afternoon last fall with a new can of Berkley Gulp Alive leeches and twister tails. I rigged them up and proceeded to fish areas that I know hold large bass. What ensued was one of my better days on the water in quite some time. For some reason the new formula of these baits really encourages fish to hold on to them for much longer periods of time. I was not getting short strikes, and in fact, had ample time to set hooks on hit each.

My only complaint is the fish had a tendency to swallow the bait rather quickly, making hook retrieval an adventure every time. A good set of needle nose pliers, though, and I was able to successfully catch and release double digit bass in one afternoon of fishing action.

I really enjoyed my experience fishing with these Berkley Gulp Alive baits. I was catching more quality fish and missing far fewer because of the tendency to hold on to the bait for longer periods of time.

I have written more reviews, and give more information on how to fish these wonderful baits over at my website – click here to visit: Berkley Gulp Alive.
