Wanaflatsfish Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 Saw these on Rick Murphy's show when he was in the Bahamas bone fishing and mutton fishing....of course, they caught some on these.....now, I'm a gadget and lure sucker....so, I googled them, and found a few on line from Tackle Direct - sold out on the fish bites site and I got the last 4 bags.... Thoughts or successes ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernWake Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 I know nothing on them but let me know how it compares to GULP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Troy Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 Great pin fish bait just like Gulp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuddyBottomBluz Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 I bought the bits that you add to any jig or lure, nothing. I felt the little fish messing with it but that was about it. Limited experience with them so I have not completely written them off yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triplec Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 I dont use them having other preference but they make em right here in St Auggy and have walls full when Im in there so if you need more try their retail shop here in town and likely they will get them out to you. https://fishbites.com/fishbites-trading-post/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradM Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Never used the shrimp, but I’ve been using the paddle version for years, with a lot of success! You’ll always find a bag or 6 on my boat. I like that they’re not as messy as the Gulp! product, and find I have less bycatch with them. They also hold onto the hook better and don’t dry out on a short run from spot to spot...they do dry out, but no where near as quickly as Gulp! I prefer them and do really well on redfish in the winter, with white on a white 1/8 jig head. Get out of here triplec! 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanaflatsfish Posted January 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 Fished Flamingo - overall tough day...but, did find some for dinner with a Fish Bites shrimp Coto was using the white DOA - same location within 25 feet of each other ......DC 1, DOA 0 (LOL) Well, to be honest, I think the Red was lost...and hungry...he was the only one caught all day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyB Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 If it’s white they will bite!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
