Instead of baiting 2 rods against each other, use 1 rod but with a double hook rig. This way the fish will show you the effectiveness of the product being tried/tested at a more specific and individual way altogether. Great vid btw, and thanks for sharing mate
By using a whole gulp worm making it look like there is a worm in the water and not a little chunk of colored plastic would make a difference I believe.
Gulp worms are NOT meant to just hang there, they are treated as slow retrieval bait lures. they are made to entice a bite, when bitten, the flavor is suppose to make them taste good and texture feel like real bait. hope this helps you understand.
60 year fisherman here and I've used every type of line out there from braids to flurocarbons to monos ! I love the softness and strength of braid and I tie a 2 foot leader of fluro because it disappears in the water and it's stiffness helps with line abrasion !
I've never used braid.It sounds like it's better.The next line l buy will be braided.I can't wait. I really like your show.I like the way you teach.You are a good teacher.Keep up the good work.
Just one thing about braided line: It does NOT break down fast and fisherman are always snagging braided line that got left in streams, rivers etc.. I use it too,just be careful and considerate. Thanks..
I've been using blood worms for a long time! They seem to always produce fish even when nothing is biting! But I've never used a whole blood warm at one time! I usually cut off a good piece when baiting! It's never let me down and it does make my blood worms last me a full day of fishing!
How about a Texas Rig with the gulp worm? And then Jerk it in on the return, so it gets some action instead of just laying there. I think the live worm moving is what's getting hit. So the test is not quite Fair. Yep, I go with it. Love the video. Love the channel. Love you two. I'm hooked. Keep up your great informative entertainment.
Jerry Adams totally agree gulp is a lure, not bait. Its an imitation of something you need to move it around to sell it to the fish. Not a fair comparison.
The real bloodworm does not move and will work mainly because of its scent. It is cut up into pieces. 3-5 inch at a time. It's pretty much dead. The gulp does not have the real bloodworm scent, it's why it doesn't work. If the gulp is soaked really well in The blood from the bloodworm, it works like a charm.
I tried most of these gulp baits a few years back.. They are pretty useless when used static, but can be really excellent if fished in an active way and twitched back across the sea bed.. I guess they just market them wrong, it should say that on the packet. Great video as always guys. Cheers :)
Bro idk why UA-cam hasn't been recommending your vids lately but I just remembered your channel recently and started binge watching to catch back up haha. You n Erin have great informative content like no other. Keep up the good work man. Come down to kiptopeke sometime and let's fish!
I think the gulps are meant to be jigged and moved, not just sitting still on the bottom. Also, I wonder what would happen if you put a little section of bloodworm along with the gulp just to give it some scent, and then let it sit. If it worked, that would stretch the bloodworm supply out considerably. Thanks for the great video!
I'm new to fishing myself also I found out on the day the water was choppy that if I took a fake worm and use the bobber it moved around in the water on its own and kind of followed the current with a sinker on the bottom to weigh it down base struck it because of the movement
Berkeley gulp blood and sand worms work great. Use the whole thing...no chunks. I have great success doing it this way, in the Northeast! I outfish live bait all day long.
The only success I've had using the gulp worms were in active fishing scenarios (Cast and retrieve) whereas in these soaking scenarios, it just does not work.
I Use braid with about 8’ of monofilament leader on my spinning reels because braid doesn’t have the line memory that mono does which prevents bird nests and line twist. Pro tip: spool the first half of the spool with mono backing to save money on the more expensive braid
I say, "Add 2 hooks to your line and switch bait position, live on top hook first, then vise versa and see who gets hit more and at what position." At the end, you want to save money? Go with the gulp, they were at half price!😉 You give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime
We always use a small section of real blood worm and then tip the hook with the fake. It helps hold the real stuff on the hook and you can usually catch multiple fish on one small piece of bloodworm.
Braid is great when you are not in a crowd. A crowd with newbies will cause so many tangles and you end up cutting half your line off in a day. That said, we do use them for steelhead fishing bobber and jig. The line (mostly) floats and you can 'mend' it. But that is about all we use it for because once tangled on the bottom, it is YEARS before the water erodes it to the point it breaks away. Some of us carry extension poles so when you pull the broken end from the water with your lure, you can get a hold on it before it falls free and drifts on back into the hole you are fishing. Then you get one more chance to break it off at the snag. Nice vid.
Gulp worms work brilliantly for whiting in Australia and image it would work for your USA fish as well, technique is cast out light 2 hook paternoster rig with gulp worms and slowly retrieve. Moving worm irresistible.
Hahahahahahahahaha..... When I first read this I thought you said "stippers"! LMBO. I had to reread it because I'd never seen strippers take liver when I was looking for one. Lmbo
Braid and mono are both excellent, and the trick is knowing when to use one, and when to use the other. Each will do things the other will not. You shouldn't leave fluorocarbon out of the discussion, either. It has advantages, as well. As for the cost of braid, most anglers change their braid, and their mono, and their fluorocarbon, far too often. Of course, it's silly to use a full spool of braid when you are almost never going to use more than forty yards of line, and will seldom use more than thirty. I've gone day, and days without using more than fifteen to twenty yards of line. Save some money and spool halfway with cheap mono, and then to where you want it with braid. And just because you change braid doesn't mean you should discard the old braid. Ninety percent of it, maybe all of it, is as good as the day you bought. Run it onto an old spool and save it for an emergency, or give it away. Braid, other than the first few feet that gets scraped and nicked, can last for years. I've seen very heavily fished braid last six years. The waste of money is buying blood worms. They're the silliest waste of money I've ever seen. Yes, they work, but other, far, far cheaper baits work just as well, or better. I've seen studies that show most people don't buy blood worms because of how well they work, but because of how much they cost. They think any bait that costs that much must be made of magic powder, and sprinkled with fairy dust, even though the record shows their just average as bait. Anyway, braid is no stronger than mono of the same test, and breaks even easier because it has no stretch to absorb the shock. The advantage of braid is that the same pound test is much thinner, so you can use much higer poud test for the same diameter. I never use braid for ultralight fishing because the line is too thin. I can barely see four pound test braid unless it's against a high contrast background. Yellow braid helps, but not nearly enough when it's that thin. I could use thicker braid, but that takes away the challenge of ultralight fishing. Anyway, braid, mono, or fluorocarbon, or even Dacron, each has its uses, so don't stick blindly to just one. I even use #9 tarred bankline and #36 tarred bankline for some types of fishing. Whatever is best for the type of fishing I'm doing that day.
I mostly use the mono fishing lines. Generally because I fish in both cold and warm weather (I live in Northern Sweden) and the braided lines suck water into them and in the cold the line freezes and makes it really hard to use. I also prefer the "feeling" of the mono lines and I think they are easier to handle or "re-tackle" when you're out fishing.
Respectfully, Why in the world do you feel that changing out your braid frequently is necessary? Braid is very trustworthy and lasts a long time even with a lot of use. You have a great show and I am a big fan. I like the way you include your family. That's what it's all about really. I guess I'm just Jealous because I live so far away from any beach. Keep on with the great content. Thanks
Senko, good idea to always remove the bell before you strike and retrieve the fish... Ive lost my fair share of fish due to the line being cut by the clip of the bell.
DUDE LOVE YOUR WHOLE FAMILY BUT ME AND YOU ARE FROM TWO DIFFERENT FISHING WORLDS ME I NEVER PUT MY ROD DOWN YOU WAIT FOR BELLS TO TELL YOU YOUR ONTO A FISH LOL
Flourocarbon for sinking factor and hidden line under water. Picky fish... Mono for topwater and shallows. Aggressive fish Braid for when I want to be able to reel in a log.... catfishing...
I fish that same spot, the climb down & back up is a bitch but i catch big stripers there as well as white perch & catfish. Keep the case videos coming, thanks
The Berkley gulp worms work very well on the west coast. For me they outfish bloodworms every time. Sand and kelp bass cant stay away from them. Also they work better with a slow retrieve.
don't put so much worm onthe hook.first time i used fishbite blood worms caught a 1#8 oz spot, citation i was trying to catch for years,they do work good also the clam flavor.
Great episode. I'm a fresh water fisherman but have gotten lots of great tips from you I can use. Just bought some old school Michelle's based on you old school episode. Just like I had when I was a kid! I wonder how blood worms would be on trout and bass? Hmmmm
The passion of fishing La passion por la pesca You guys should try Fish bites as an alternative to bloodworms. I use those instead of bloodworms and I have luck.
I know it can be messy, but why don't you cut the bloodworms? I cut them about the same length as the hook. That first one you hooked at 2:04 could get your about five pieces, if cut
chun wei Hsu they look like standard alert bells to me. Something like this. www.walmart.com/ip/Unique-Bargains5-Piece-Double-Bell-Alarm-Iron-Ring-for-Fresh-Salty-Fishing-New/686927947?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=571&adid=22222222228116420583&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=235372526152&wl4=pla-389104470475&wl5=9010801&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=111838760&wl11=online&wl12=686927947&wl13=&veh=sem
If you want to cast far, Power pro super 8 slick. I use 40lbs I'm not trying to brag but I spooled out 150yards on a windless day with 6oz weight and 12 ft rod. That never happened with any other line.
rskrks have you tried suffix 832? I'm using standard power pro rn and find it's a lot stiffer with more friction than the sufix. Super slick is more expensive than the sufix too. As far as I know super slick is just regular power pro with a nylon coating. Same as the suffix
i am from the west coast, do a lot of delta striped bass fishing... blood worms are the go to choice for shore fishing. tried a lot of other baits and nothing gets the striped bass biting better than blood worms. bait are expensive! its about $22 here for a dozen. tried gulp, but the results are horrible. lol. i rig my blood worm from the tail down the line using a palomar knot. it has landed me some big striped bass! those worms also stick on if little size bass tries to eat it. you can still set the hook and have your bait in good shape with that setup . another way is to add blood worms and nightcrawler combo to save. why i like that rig style is because 1. stays on the hook, 2.larger profile for huge bass, 3.creates more scent,4.have more time to set the hook. That way, youll save your worm from little shakers prying that bait off the hook and line. youll see that rod dnacing when that trophy size fish hits!
Great video bro. Its just missing 2 or 3 hi tech rod holders which can be made at home easy by hiding the birth control pills. Good luck on your future rod holder build project.
I like using both. I'm a mono guy but braid has it's place and I'll use it for different things.but I never go totally braided. When I do use braid I'll use it for backing and mono top shot. Just so I can get more line on a smaller spool.
You have to use Red worms and Fish Bites bloodworms Brandon. I never had luck with Gulp Bloodworms either. But Red worm + Fishbites bloodworm gave me the best results
When i use blood or sand worms at the beach, they don't stay on the hook. 10 minutes later when i rail in no worm. Not sure if crabs are eating the bait or the current takes the worms off the hook. I've also tried putting salted squid from hey skipper at the end of the hook to keep the worm on, doesn't work. Any ideas???
I use both. Are use mono with the floral carbon leader if I’m fishing in sure and I don’t plan on keeping my catch. If I am targeting a fish that I plan on keeping i use braid with the floral carbon top shot
I'll use braided line on BaitCaster Rod because I get a better cast with it. But on my Open Face Spinner and my Spincast I use Berkley 8lb Trilene and it is my favorite line to use because it's a very durable line.
First time i heard that with the round hook. It makes sence. Though my hooks are all round. Thanks for sharing each bit of knowledge! Greetings from Greece
I've used the gulp worms and had plenty of success. I think your issue is the method and location you are fishing. The fake worms work great for jigging and jumping across the bottom to get reaction bites in fresh water for trout, bass and sun fish (texas rig works great). Use the fake worms for live bait n' wait fishing scenarios and expect to fail, they don't move, smell or taste like real worms. Any fish with the time to inspect the bait will not pick it up. Not nice to say a product isn't worth the money when the issue is you aren't utilizing it properly..
i saw on a different vid,for ur big conventional reels ,u need a shockleader of mono,i see u break off alot because braid got no stretch,the stretch give abration ressistance and extra power,especially when u go for bull reds,they are up to 40 plus inches in Texas(galveston),thats like 30 to 45 pounds,just saying.
I use mono because I fish smaller rivers with muddy banks and a plain spincast reel serves me better since there closed face.i have a zebco 888 if I wanna target big fish.its got 25lb line on it .now when I'm able to buy a boat I might use more spinning reels
I purchased those Gulp Worms a few weeks ago to try here in Houston and Galveston Texas, and they did nothing whatsoever. They stink to high hell also. A huge disappointment. Great comparison video guys.
Lamont Willimas I called My Captain yesterday. He told me to check back in 3 to 4 more weeks. I trust and believe so,,, being that I've fish with him since 2002 when I was in DC EVERY Sunday. And have always taken home at least a 1/5 igloo full of fish. He is my DAWG. Never came home with minus 60 fish and good size. I now travel 4hours to fish with him.
Yea and he starts reeling right away. But I can tell from the fury passion in his eyes and the race for the 1m UA-cam subscribers he will some day, land some big ass cows.
Bud u claim your a bassmaster where’s your massively watched u tube videos never heard of you 👎 Plus u claim he is an amateur!! yet you the one watching this video 🖕🏻and commenting as well 🤔 I wonder who is the real amateur you or him brah he has a massive subscriber base and u just got bad taste in words we call 💩 talk in Australia you jealous bud And by the way Ive caught more bass here in oz then u have ever caught in your pitiful life buddy no Need to shit talk others when u a nobody yourself 146 subscribers wow 😲 man nobody gives a fuck about your videos 🖕🏻🖕🏻
I am old, are used to always use braid that’s all there was. Then I use mono, I tried to find braid and couldn’t. I was told it was no good you can’t use braid it’s terrible, you have to use mono it is the best. Now, it is turned around. I always thought braid was better than mono. I always like how it behaves and how it’s sent the signals to you.
Try slipping your live bloodworm straight up the hook and onto the line, and adding gulp worm on the hook? IDK. In California, when the fishing is tough, I use pile worm and blood worm mix. Pile worm is softer, so fish tear them apart easier. So I slip pile worm up the line and add blood worm to cover the hook.
Instead of baiting 2 rods against each other, use 1 rod but with a double hook rig. This way the fish will show you the effectiveness of the product being tried/tested at a more specific and individual way altogether.
Great vid btw, and thanks for sharing mate
Nobody likes a smartass.
By using a whole gulp worm making it look like there is a worm in the water and not a little chunk of colored plastic would make a difference I believe.
That makes sense ! Sometime I think the bait is too big, but thinking now that if the fish want to strike, it will strike! Good tip J. Ortiz👍💯💯
Gulp worms are NOT meant to just hang there, they are treated as slow retrieval bait lures. they are made to entice a bite, when bitten, the flavor is suppose to make them taste good and texture feel like real bait. hope this helps you understand.
60 year fisherman here and I've used every type of line out there from braids to flurocarbons to monos ! I love the softness and strength of braid and I tie a 2 foot leader of fluro because it disappears in the water and it's stiffness helps with line abrasion !
Why would you run a full bloode worm and compair it to a 1 half inch piece of gulp.... Run the full or,half gulp worm. And then compair
Travis Lester I was just about to say that this dude sucks

Fluorocarbon because it’s the non stretchy mono like line and it’s way lighter and casts far
It can be a pain to tie sometimes, though.

Braid by Spiderwire. Performs great and casts well

lol I thought the same thing, I was half expecting him to reel in santa
Even better idea loose the bells completely and watch the rod tip that's what I do!
Damo fishing ninja Absolutely
Damo fishing ninja there are times when you cant sit and stare at the rod..
I love using braided. It's perfect but if your fishing around rocks or sharp edges then I suggest you use Mano. Braided can snap very easily.

The passion of fishing La passion por la pesca You guys should try Fish bites as an alternative to bloodworms. I use those instead of bloodworms and I have luck.
The passion of fishing La passion por la pesca I go fishing in a little pond has alot of catfish and perch they love hotdogs
I know it can be messy, but why don't you cut the bloodworms? I cut them about the same length as the hook. That first one you hooked at 2:04 could get your about five pieces, if cut
can you make a video about those bell you made on the rod
chun wei Hsu they look like standard alert bells to me.

Lmao
i use both lines depending on what im fishing for, mono are better at jigging and braid are mainly for trapping..
i use power pro braided
Hey skipper where do u go fishing at in Maryland or Virginia?
Kastking braid hasn’t let me down
Kastiking is good too, but this FishingSir Godline was great!
If you want to cast far, Power pro super 8 slick. I use 40lbs I'm not trying to brag but I spooled out 150yards on a windless day with 6oz weight and 12 ft rod. That never happened with any other line.
rskrks have you tried suffix 832? I'm using standard power pro rn and find it's a lot stiffer with more friction than the sufix. Super slick is more expensive than the sufix too.
As far as I know super slick is just regular power pro with a nylon coating. Same as the suffix
i am from the west coast, do a lot of delta striped bass fishing... blood worms are the go to choice for shore fishing. tried a lot of other baits and nothing gets the striped bass biting better than blood worms. bait are expensive! its about $22 here for a dozen. tried gulp, but the results are horrible. lol. i rig my blood worm from the tail down the line using a palomar knot. it has landed me some big striped bass! those worms also stick on if little size bass tries to eat it. you can still set the hook and have your bait in good shape with that setup . another way is to add blood worms and nightcrawler combo to save. why i like that rig style is because 1. stays on the hook, 2.larger profile for huge bass, 3.creates more scent,4.have more time to set the hook. That way, youll save your worm from little shakers prying that bait off the hook and line. youll see that rod dnacing when that trophy size fish hits!
Great video bro. Its just missing 2 or 3 hi tech rod holders which can be made at home easy by hiding the birth control pills. Good luck on your future rod holder build project.
Those are way more expensive than bloodworms!
old video, but i am newbi on fishing,
thank you for saving my money🤗
Wish I could love braid. That noise going through the eyes drives me insane.
I've never noticed a sound... I feel bad for you growing up, I'm sure your sensitive ears heard all sorts of disturbing noises :)
I love that sound lol. Not as much as drag screaming though
But thats the best part. It shows just how hard the fish is fighting and thats part of the thrill
I only use braided line (power pro)I need strong thin line for big carp,catfish and stripebass
Your artificial worm was so small it would have virtually no action. Of course you got no bites!
i need to try it again!
I use tuf-line xp braid and spider wire on on my reels! But I am fishing for Chinook and coho!!!
I use co-polymer for most every thing. Yo-Zuri brand.
Nice, thanks for sharing! I like yo-zuri as well
is this turkey point ?
??
Best brand out
I like using both. I'm a mono guy but braid has it's place and I'll use it for different things.but I never go totally braided. When I do use braid I'll use it for backing and mono top shot. Just so I can get more line on a smaller spool.
You have to use Red worms and Fish Bites bloodworms Brandon. I never had luck with Gulp Bloodworms either. But Red worm + Fishbites bloodworm gave me the best results
Siyuan Zheng
Me too Siyuan!!!
Agree, if you are going to go artificial. Fish Bites is what you need to use. But never as effective as the real stuff.
When i use blood or sand worms at the beach, they don't stay on the hook. 10 minutes later when i rail in no worm. Not sure if crabs are eating the bait or the current takes the worms off the hook. I've also tried putting salted squid from hey skipper at the end of the hook to keep the worm on, doesn't work. Any ideas???
I prefer that quality line that comes on the reel I bought from Walmart....
I use both. Are use mono with the floral carbon leader if I’m fishing in sure and I don’t plan on keeping my catch. If I am targeting a fish that I plan on keeping i use braid with the floral carbon top shot
where are a dozen worms $12 and secondly how would I be saving money when I can go dig a bucket full of my own worms?
These are not earth worms they are Blood Worms, used for salt water
The little bells LMAO genius
Man I'm from Ontario and we pay 2 to 4 dollars for a dozen worms you're getting big time ripped off
those are blood worms, not regular worms or night crawlers, use blood worms in salt water fishing, no salt water in ontario
Yea, when you " import " em from Canada ya pay way more . They don't grow here . Tom Daytona Beach, FL. 3, September 2020
@@monkeyman4131 I wasn't aware of that. Thank you sir
I'll use braided line on BaitCaster Rod because I get a better cast with it. But on my Open Face Spinner and my Spincast I use Berkley 8lb Trilene and it is my favorite line to use because it's a very durable line.
They are no where near the real worms
Pretty much 🤷🏼♀️
First time i heard that with the round hook. It makes sence. Though my hooks are all round. Thanks for sharing each bit of knowledge! Greetings from Greece
Actually Circle hooks, I know synonym, but it you ask for Round hooks in a tackle store they might not understand what you mean.
Gulp fake blood worm never worked for me too. Nice video.
At nighttime i rarely catch stuff with gulps but they hit the worms like crazy
I like your channel however, how is that a good test if you use a small piece of fake worm/crawler and a full size blood-worm? Not well played sir....
I've used the gulp worms and had plenty of success. I think your issue is the method and location you are fishing. The fake worms work great for jigging and jumping across the bottom to get reaction bites in fresh water for trout, bass and sun fish (texas rig works great). Use the fake worms for live bait n' wait fishing scenarios and expect to fail, they don't move, smell or taste like real worms. Any fish with the time to inspect the bait will not pick it up. Not nice to say a product isn't worth the money when the issue is you aren't utilizing it properly..
Now that’s cool!
Glad you enjoyed it, sam!
i saw on a different vid,for ur big conventional reels ,u need a shockleader of mono,i see u break off alot because braid got no stretch,the stretch give abration ressistance and extra power,especially when u go for bull reds,they are up to 40 plus inches in Texas(galveston),thats like 30 to 45 pounds,just saying.
also dont quickly reel in big fish,small fish is ok tho
Nice, I been catching some nice stripers and white perch too. This is that time of the year 👍🎣
Isaiah Robinson awesome dude! That time of year.. I'm looking for them big cats this month 👊
😋 how u break another leg
I use mono because I fish smaller rivers with muddy banks and a plain spincast reel serves me better since there closed face.i have a zebco 888 if I wanna target big fish.its got 25lb line on it .now when I'm able to buy a boat I might use more spinning reels
I purchased those Gulp Worms a few weeks ago to try here in Houston and Galveston Texas, and they did nothing whatsoever. They stink to high hell also. A huge disappointment. Great comparison video guys.
International Industries
So True!!!!. They look awesome though. Now Fishbites bloodworms rule in the Chesapeake Bay.
TroyboyQUE
I'll definitely have to try those. Thanks for the recommendation.
Good looking out for us guys who like to fish. Also I live near Ocean city MD and would like to fish with you some day
Lamont Willimas
I called My Captain yesterday. He told me to check back in 3 to 4 more weeks. I trust and believe so,,, being that I've fish with him since 2002 when I was in DC EVERY Sunday. And have always taken home at least a 1/5 igloo full of fish. He is my DAWG. Never came home with minus 60 fish and good size.
I now travel 4hours to fish with him.
You have to use like lure slow retrieving technique at the bottom and use whole worm
Awesome video, thanks for sharing
Can u not reel the fish thru the rocks.. They don't have to get smacked around.. Be more gentle
😆😂😂😝😂😂😆🤡🤪 it’s fishing kid!
Gulp work so well! Out fished my friend who was using the same length live beach worms- 6 fish to 1
never trust someone who fishes like this
What do you mean?
Try using the gulp tipped with a piece of bloodworm. Should keep right up with the straight bloods
You can tell he is an amateur because the way he runs to his rod😂
Bassmaster Mckenzie loll
Yea and he starts reeling right away. But I can tell from the fury passion in his eyes and the race for the 1m UA-cam subscribers he will some day, land some big ass cows.

And by the way
Ive caught more bass here in oz then u have ever caught in your pitiful life buddy no Need to shit talk others when u a nobody yourself 146 subscribers wow 😲 man nobody gives a fuck about your videos 🖕🏻🖕🏻
I am old, are used to always use braid that’s all there was. Then I use mono, I tried to find braid and couldn’t. I was told it was no good you can’t use braid it’s terrible, you have to use mono it is the best. Now, it is turned around. I always thought braid was better than mono. I always like how it behaves and how it’s sent the signals to you.
Braid for me too, especially for lure fishing.
Try slipping your live bloodworm straight up the hook and onto the line, and adding gulp worm on the hook? IDK. In California, when the fishing is tough, I use pile worm and blood worm mix. Pile worm is softer, so fish tear them apart easier. So I slip pile worm up the line and add blood worm to cover the hook.
