so the gulp is a no go...

Glitter chartreuse nibbles are my favorite.

I have used some of the gulp products for other species but the nibbles are candy to a crappie.I have caught crappie on the Gulp minnows. Not saying you can't find one of the gulp products that will work...at some point I quit experimenting a lot because the nibbles were so good. I use the little gulp maggots and stuff for panfish. The best thing to do is get some different product and experiment. You have to put some time in on the water presenting this stuff to fish and track the results. When one of them is so decisively better for the type fishing your doing and location your at ...over the rest... then you know.

That Gulp stuff has its place.I used some in saltwater... some it it was really good.The locals there showed me what to use.

Heck i have not even began to try it all...and they change formulations a little here and there and new product coming out all the time.


You find something good you post back and tell us.

Not a fan of nibbles of any flavor . Too messy and have not found them to help .

Batches can vary though. You have to learn to get any of them to the right stiffness (for lack of a better word) that is key. Too hard fish don't bite good and too soft fall off. Just right they dissolve just right to leave a trail but will last for 30 cast sometimes without falling off.Sometimes even catch multiple fish with them.

They are not just for crappie....have caught near everything that swims with them.
All the bass Smallmouth,largemouth,spotted,whites,hybrids,strip ers....walleye,sauger...catfish all species.... all the panfish shellcrackers,bluegill,sunfish,google eye... freshwater drum, herring, yellow perch,man I don't even think I remember everything.

I will buy jar and leave the lid off setting on my work bench in garage till they get to desired stiffness

Glitter chartreuse and the silver glitter

Glow chartreuse, for me. Don't leave home without them.

glow chartruce for me
