The Berkley Gulp! Freshwater Paddleshad is a soft swimbait that combines a realistic tail kicking action with the famous Gulp! scent infusion. These baits are designed to increase your chances of catching fish by expanding the strike zone beyond what the lure can visibly reach. The powerful scent dispersion of Gulp! attracts predatory fish from a distance, making it more effective than other scented baits on the market. The Paddleshad has a lifelike baitfish profile and a flattened nose that makes it easy to rig with jig heads. Its boot-tail and minnow shaped body work together to create a fast kicking action even at slow retrieval speeds.
