Berkeley Gulp lures

[Casker]

Ordered some of the subject lures from JimsOnline not actually knowing what the "Gulp" part meant. When I read the packages' health warning label (ref' the Gulp fluid they are marinated in) I decided to return them: I'm not about to be dealing with handling-hygiene while on a beach or wishing to use any fishing product requiring a chemicals health warning!

Absolutely no problem at Jims Bodmin store re their return/reimbursement . (An order "in exchange" was not required, but, in fairness, I've already ordered new other stuff from them.)

I'm now wondering what other forum members think about "Gulp" ? (Having looked up online, it is clearly not a simple fish-oil marinade)

I used them in the past, never bothered to read any warning.
interesting things artificial fishing baits, I remember buying several "bucket'o'bait" things in the past, as the name suggests a plastic bucket full of assorted artificials, I remember putting some in smaller tackle boxes & they melted the box or other lures, One lot left for several years in the garage turned in to a bucket of multi coloured gloop, while other baits can dry out.
Are the modern 'rubber'/jelly baits more stable?

Some are. Like Red Gills

Yes the red gills were always made of proper "rubber" rather than the jelly like stuff

I still use my red gills,they were well made, better than the jelly stuff lures
