Only issue with Gulps is that damn juice seems to find it's way out of any container you put it in and into places that it doesn't belong like tackle bags, car boots and your lunch. Anyone solved that wee challenge? |

In NZ, I'd reserve these types of lure for kingfish since snapper would do too much damage. A few years ago, I wanted a heavy jig that could be fished slowly for kingfish, so made one. I loaded a hollow squid skirt with big sinkers. It weighed 280g and was reasonably successful. |
