slinkymalinky Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Just wondering whether Gulp soft plastics have a 'use by' date? I've noticed that once a packet has been opened they start to smell pretty ripe after a while. The fish don't seem to mind at all but you sure don't want to get it on your clothes or gets very upset when you walk back through the door at the end of the day. They're so much like bait I thought that maybe they go 'off' after a while?? Cheers, Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Try keeping them in an insulated bag out of the sun The one berkely makes is good and make sure you seal the gulp packets properly after use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangles Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Try keeping them in an insulated bag out of the sun The one berkely makes is good and make sure you seal the gulp packets properly after use ive got 1 of the berkley bags with all the ziplock sleeves inside. Some of my plastics are 12mths old and are still ok. They are kept in a cool cupboard in the garage,and in the esky when fishing, so this may help with the shelf life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gretsch Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I had a bag in the sun in my boat all day and they turned into silly putty. Other than that, the ones I have are still all in good nick and they are 6-8 months old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
