Quick take
4 in soft plastic mullet with high-action tail and Gulp attractant scent for saltwater casting and trolling.
This 4 in Orange Tiger Swimming Mullet is a soft plastic swimbait with a realistic head and body and a high-action swimming tail. It is soaked in Gulp! scent and goes back in the bucket between casts to recharge. Anglers working spinning or casting gear for trout and panfish can rig it as a stand-in for live bait.
Best for
- Saltwater stripers and large redfish
- Open-water trolling and casting
- Replacing live mullet and herring
Skip if
- You fish in heavy weeds or cover
- You need a fast-sinking bait
Strengths
- Swimming action mimics live bait without live handling
- Scent dispersion works in cloudy water
- Tail design creates flash and vibration
Trade-offs
- Scent dissipates after several casts; recharge between sessions
- Soft plastic tears easily on rough structures
- Requires recharging in bucket to maintain attractant
