I found this U-tube on the net.

I only found a few fishing reports for rigging this way and none were very successful. I have read a lot about shrimp needing to swim backwards so this does look like it should work.

I just use jig heads with gulp live, are a popping cork..works for me

What size hook you like to use on Gulp?

I like a 1/8 oz or 1/4 oz jig head. I think those hooks that are cast into the lead head are 4/0 or so.

The light the jig head the better. However, I've found that the Gulp baits seem to be a little more buoyant than other plastics and takes a bit more weight to sink 'em. I've gone has heavy as 1/4 oz jig heads in the surf. A lot depends on current, wind, waves and other conditions.

Thanks everyone for the input. A great bunch of guys.

I haven't used a DOA in a long time, but if I remember correctly they back slide if you stop reeling and drop the rod tip like a shrimp escaping danger when normally rigged.

They were killers on Snook in Fl.

I saw a video a long time ago about this kid who fished a DOA super slow, imitating the way a shrimp swims, and he said that he would get a hook up almost everytime he casted. After that my buddy and I slowed our presentation way down and got a lot more successful.

What color do you guys like in the DOA Shrimp ? Seems New Penny is the general consensus in Gulp Alive.

color choice depends mostly on if the bait in the water is white shrimp or brown shrimp. Size also. I found white in the first of the year <light colors> and darker colors a little past March. Anyone else?

For the DOA or H&H TKO shrimp lures the contrasting color combos like Purple/chartreuse, Blue Moon/chartreuse, Pearl/chartreuse, Red/white, also all white or glow for me. Usually used under a popping cork, but sometimes freelined.

anyone tried Chickenboylures shrimps?

You guys rigging Backwards like video or straight out of package?

I've done both. Straight out the package they are tied under a cork. If I texas rig them, I am just fishing it like any other soft plastic. Both have produced for me in the past. I started buying the H&H TKO shrimp though. Cheaper than the DOA's and look very similar and the action is the same.

X2 on the H&H TKO shrimp.

1/8oz jig with Gulp swimming minnows works for trouts or flounder real well.
I would setup a tandem rig so my chance can be double.
