Are gulp baits all made of the same scent, or does a shrimp taste like a shrimp, a sand flea like a sand flea?...etc?

| LOL. I haven't tasted any to find out. They are scented and flavored pretty similarly. I'm going to post some backup material :: "Whether it's a bass, redfish, pike, flounder – any species – they all consume the same staple diets, much like meat and potatoes. These staples are the base layer for all Gulp! products and contain a formula that Berkley scientists have found to appeal universally to fish. The second layer of the Gulp flavor formula is akin to local and regional differences in human diets. In some parts of the world, different spices are used; sometimes sauces. Following this analogy, the second layer would be considered the seasoning layer, with each bait "seasoned" to adhere to what flavors research has shown the fish to be attracted. Ultimately, the third layer is specific to the style of bait. From shrimp to baitfish, extra ingredients are included, so that in the underwater environment of the fish, these baits smell like the real thing they represent. "When a redfish eats a Gulp Shrimp, it's actually tasting several different things. He gets the shrimp layer, the seasoning layer and the meat and potatoes," Prochnow said. "That's why fish never pass up a Gulp meal when they can get it." The flavor impregnated into baits is tasted by fish upon biting bait, making the fish hang on longer for more positive hook sets.

They all smell the same to me. I've never tasted them myself. I think we should do a blind taste test! !!
Keep'em tight and keep'em wet!

| I have a 3 year old that chewed through about five packs one day before I realized why he was being so quiet in the corner of the garage. He was in a frenzy over the things and didnt seem to favor one "flavor" or another.
