The Berkley Gulp! Freshwater Paddleshad is an innovative soft swimbait that has revolutionized the market with its combination of lifelike movement and the unmatched scent dispersion technology of Berkley's proprietary Gulp! formula. This bait is an excellent choice for freshwater anglers targeting species such as bass, pike, walleye, and others. With its 5-inch size and “Arkansas Glow” color, it provides exceptional visibility and attractiveness to fish in varied water conditions.

This lure stands out due to its extreme scent dispersion, which is significantly more potent than other scented baits on the market. The Gulp! formula is known to outfish live bait in certain scenarios. When submerged, this non-toxic bait releases a powerful scent trail that can attract fish from a wide radius, effectively expanding your strike zone beyond the immediate visual vicinity.

Designed with fishing versatility in mind, its realistic baitfish profile pairs with a boot-tail design to create a thumping action that simulates the natural swimming movements of prey fish, proving irresistible to predatory species.
