Berkley Gulp! Grub Lure 2.5"

USA-engineered curl-tail grub that fires instantly on light jigheads, pumps out Gulp! scent and stays upright for longer hang time.

The Berkley Gulp! Grub 2.5" is a proven, bite-sized soft plastic for estuary and freshwater fishing. Its offset curl tail prevents line twist while the torpedo-ribbed body tracks straight and lets you rig it multiple ways. The moment it hits the water the tail starts up—creating turbulence and dispersing Gulp! scent that draws fish from distance. New translucent colours add flash in clear water, making this the go-to grub for bream, bass, whiting and trout on flats, edges and around structure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What species is the 2.5" Gulp! Grub best for?
Bream, Australian bass, whiting and trout. It also takes flathead and perch when fished slowly near the bottom.

How should I retrieve it?
Make a long cast, allow it to sink to the zone, then slow roll with occasional twitches or hop it along the bottom. In clear water, extend the pause to let the tail and scent work.

What line and leader should I use?
Use 4–8 lb braid with 4–10 lb fluorocarbon leader depending on structure and target species.

Does Gulp! need to be stored differently?
Yes. Keep lures sealed in Gulp! liquid to prevent drying and to recharge scent.
