Berkley Gulp Alive Swimming Mullet
Berkley Gulp Alive Swimming Mullet is a saltwater soft bait built around a realistic mullet profile, high-action swimming tail, and Gulp! scent dispersion. Its deep-bodied shape, blunt head, detailed scaling, and flexible body imitate a baitfish while the tail produces swimming action during the retrieve.
Pre-soaked in Gulp! Alive! attractant, these baits can be returned to the container to recharge between uses. That combination of swimming action and scent makes the Berkley Gulp Alive Swimming Mullet a versatile artificial bait for casting and retrieving in coastal waters.
