Berkley PowerBait Power Worms are heavily scented soft plastic worms that come in 5 sizes and over 30 colors. Are they any good? Well, Berkley claims they are. They say "Berkley PowerBait makes novice anglers good and good anglers great". They also say their scent and taste make fish hold on 18 times longer than an unscented worm. Either Carolina rigged, drop-shotted, or even fished wacky style, these worms in my experience do catch fish. I agree these worms are pretty good.

Question 2

What is the difference between Berkley PowerBait and Berkley Gulp?

Accepted Answer

Powerbait is made with oil based resins. The more oil based resin added to the PVC, the softer the bait will be. Gulp is made using water based resins, thus the major difference in the two baits.

,

Berkley's PowerBait and Gulp are both soft plastic baits with added scents to attract fish. Like nearly all soft plastic baits, both of these products are made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and come in various sizes and shapes. In order to make the baits soft, the PVC must be heated and combined with a resin. Here is where the difference between PowerBait and Gulp lies. PowerBait is made with an oil-based resin, while Gulp is made with a water-based resin. The water of the water-based resin in the Gulp allows the scent to diffuse into the water, while PowerBait's oil-based resin inhibits this diffusion. Because of this, the Gulp can be detected by fish through smell, while a fish needs to bite on the PowerBait in order to detect the scent.

,

The main difference between Berkley PowerBait and Berkley Gulp is the types or resins that are added to each, repectively. PowerBait is oil-based making it very soft, whereas, Gulp is water-based and allows for more scent distribution.

Question 3

How do you rig Berkley PowerBait?

Accepted Answer

To rig a Berkley Power Bait, make it weedless, Texas style. Place the hook against the bait to get a sense for where the hook will end up. Then hook the head of the soft plastic, turn the hook and insert it into the belly with the hook point buried in the bait. To make sure you actually get the hook into the body of the lure, push the lure forward, move it up slightly, then slide it back over the hook point and pull the bait back. This will get the hook point and barb into the lure, which will keep it from sliding down the shank.

They also work excellent on ledges and deep structure in the summer time. The most popular way to fish these baits is on a Texas rig, cast out and fished on the bottom with a very slow retrieve and small hops on the bottom. You can also swim these worms slowly at or near the bottom as well. They excel on a Carolina rig dragged across the bottom slowly or even as a trailer on a jig.
