The Berkley Gulp! Freshwater Paddleshad is a soft swimbait designed to mimic real baitfish, offering an advantage to anglers by attracting a wide variety of freshwater game fish. The lure comes in a vibrant chartreuse color, which is highly visible in various water conditions and is often a go-to choice for anglers targeting species like bass, pike, and walleye. It combines a lifelike tail kicking action with the powerful Gulp! scent infusion, making it highly effective in attracting fish. Unlike other scented baits, the Gulp! scent is known for its exceptional dispersion that draws predatory fish from a distance. This swimbait expands your strike zone, allowing you to catch more fish even beyond the range of visible lures.
The Paddleshad features a realistic baitfish profile, with a flattened nose that optimizes rigging of jig heads. Its boot-tail and minnow-shaped body work together to create a lively kicking action, displaying impressive performance even at slow retrieval speeds which can entice finicky or pressured fish.
