the lab
What makes Berkley Gulp! Carp Baits more effective?
The answer is our unique formulation and manufacturing
processes.
Located at Etten Leur in the Netherlands, the Berkley Product
Innovation Centre provides a great opportunity to study and
develop the best Carp baits for the best Carp anglers.
4
All Gulp! Carp products are engineered by our own scientists and
carp feed specialists from within our own Product Innovation
laboratory, housed directly within the factory; and these include:
• Boilies and Pop Ups
• Pellets
• Seeds
• Oils and Liquid Attractors
The main advantage of this new laboratory and production facility
is to control every single step of the studies, to ensure we
provide the angler with scientifically proven baits every time.
This gives us a big advantage over many of our competitors,
who, unlike Berkley, do not own the whole formulation and
manufacturing processes.

Testing Process
The main aim of Gulp! Carp baits is to provide superior
catch rates for Carp anglers, using baits that are proven
to be, both highly effective, and convenient to use on
every session!
This aim demanded that we built a large team of more
than 60 recognised Carp anglers within the UK and Europe
to fully evaluate and refine the baits prior to launch. The testing team gave feedback to the
research team, until we developed the perfect formulas and flavours for improved catch rates.
Gulp! Carp products have been tested and evaluated rigorously over the past 24 months.
Each bait has been evaluated in different weather conditions, water temperatures, and in both
lakes and rivers to produce the perfect formulation for today’s carp angler.
The superior Gulp! Carp bait ingredients produced better results versus the
competitor baits tested during the approval and research period. In tests,
our Gulp! Carp baits proved far superior to the competitor’s baits used, with
an average 30% higher comparative catch rate recorded.
The Gulp! Carp laboratory is the start of a long story within the true spirit of
the Berkley brand, one that has been synonymous with the big carp scene for
over 25 years. Berkley can now provide the Carp angler with superior quality
bait to catch more fish, time after time!

oiliEs
& POP pop UPS ups
We believe that our boilie range consists of the best baits available,
and over the past two years our Consultants and Field Testers have
rigorously tested all baits throughout the UK and Europe to the
point where we have created one of the best ready made bait ranges
available; with no compromise given on ingredient quality or soluble
attractors used. All our bait formulas have been developed to provide
not only high attraction levels, but also essential food sources, to
ensure that your results only get better as the fish stay on the bait for
longer.
All our production is in-house, utilising the skills of our own Bait
Chemist, who is in charge of all operations. We even make our own
flavours unlike many other bait manufacturers. We have invested
heavily in Research and Development to ensure that our baits are
among the finest any Carp angler can buy. As with every item in our
product range, our food grade boilies are fully researched and contain
only the best ingredients to ensure that we provide highly digestible
baits with optimal nutritional profiles.
The secret behind the Berkley Gulp! Carp bait’s unrivalled success in
testing lies in using only the highest quality ingredients, researched
and developed internally, and produced in our own production facility.

We can proudly say that Gulp! Carp boilies have the following benefits:
• 100% premium natural ingredients
• Superior scent dispersion
• Exclusive water soluble attractants
• High digestibility
• Optimal nutritional value
If you want a fishing edge, to out-fish all those around you; and maybe
catch a record Carp yourself, you need to try the Berkley Gulp! Carp
baits, as we believe it is the best bait to help you catch more fish.
Gulp! Carp boilies are available in four sizes:
12mm, 16mm, 20mm and 24mm.
Boilie dips and soaks can be an effective way of enhancing your
hookbaits, and help you put loads more Carp on the bank. Our Gulp!
Boilie dips combine highly effective Carp attracting oils, with a range
of flavours at the optimum ratios to attract Carp, without making the
bait so strongly tainted that it discourages them.
All the liquids are ideal for increasing the attraction properties of your
free offerings for short session use, or just to further boost your hook
bait, to ensure that is the one that is picked up by the fish!
Available in 150ml bottles in the same 8 flavours as our Gulp! Carp
boilies.

more attraction in the swim, but do not want to over feed the fish.

pELlEts
Our complete pellet range is made using the highest production
standards in Europe for Carp nutrition.
We do not produce any pressed pellets in our range, but only
the very best extruded pellets. In our extrusion process, raw
materials are first ground to the correct particle size, normally the
consistency of a coarse flour. The dry mix is then passed through
a pre-conditioner, where other ingredients are added, and steam
is injected to begin the essential pre-cooking process. This preconditioned
mix is then passed through an extruder, and then
forced through a die where it is cut to the desired length. The
cooking process takes place within the extruder where the product
produces its own friction and heat due to the pressure generated
(10–20 bar) to complete the cooking process.
This extrusion cooking process gives the following
enhanced food benefits:
• Starch gelatinization
• Protein denaturation
16
• Inactivation of raw food enzymes
• Destruction of naturally occurring toxins
• The reduction of micro-organisms in the final product
Berkley Gulp! pellets are a range of feed pellets that have all been
designed to attract and hold fish in your swim. The ingredients
used are selected to create highly attractive and palatable pellets.
The flavours used will create a powerful flavour trail that leads the
fish to the fishing area and triggers a very strong feeding response.
All our products are nutritious and palatable to fish, containing all
the necessary vitamins; whilst no harmful preservatives are used.
All the ingredients used are natural and biologically degradable.

Halibut
PElLets
Gulp! Halibut Pellets contain all the essential nutrients, Vitamins
and Amino Acids that Carp require for a complete and balanced diet.

into your swim. A massively popular bait on all waters, these pellets
are available in 4.5mm, 6mm, 10mm, 16mm and 20mm sizes. All
Gulp! Halibut pellets also contain pre-digested fish meals and oils;
and combined with our own extrusion process, produce what will
become one of the most successful pellet ranges available for Carp,
Catfish, and many other species.

been formulated to assist digestion and nutrition in those patients suffering from eating
disorders and poor food digestion. It is a strong smelling red liquid which contains
extracts of fresh Liver, Spleen, complex Amino Acids, Vitamins and Minerals. Being predigested,
it is also very easily assimilated by the Carp and, as such, can form a vital part of
any long term food bait. Use between 15 and 25ml per 16oz/500g of base mix, or use it on
your hook baits, free offerings or pellets for that extra edge.
LIVER & FISH (All Seasons)

hook baits, free offerings or pellets for maximum pulling power.
LIQUID BETAINE (Summer / Autumn)
Betaine is a naturally occurring substance that is present in minute quantities in many
plants, yeasts, fungi and in the flesh of fish and crustaceans. It’s potential as a powerful
natural attractant has long been recognised in the world of fish nutrition. Our unique
Gulp! Liquid Betaine can be used in a base mix (use between 15 and 25ml per 16oz/500g),
or simply add to dips; glug, or use as a soak for your boilies, hook baits or pellets.
GLM EXTRACT (All Seasons)
A real Carp magnet, and arguably, one of the best available. The famous Green Lipped
Mussel Extract is very rich in naturally occurring Betaine, and boasts a superb shellfish
smell, with one of the most distinctive tastes imaginable. Our Gulp! Liquid GLM Extract
can be used as an additive to a base mix but try it as a hook bait boost, and you will be

soak your hook baits or pop-ups in the pure Corn Steep Liquor.
CREAM & MILK (Autumn / Winter)
Our totally unique Gulp! Cream and Milk Liquid attractant is an excellent appetite stimulator,

also produces a highly visual trigger for the fish.
FRUIT ATTRACTOR (Autumn / Winter)
This Gulp! Fruit attractor is an excellent appetite stimulator, and this one is very sweet,
and very fruity; in both taste and smell. This attractor has proved to be very effective

so that no essential acids are destroyed. Our Gulp! Hemp Oil is bursting with
Amino Acids, Omega 3, 6 and 9 plus Vitamin E. Gulp! Hemp Oil can be used as
a pellet ‘Glug’ and will add both high attraction and further nutritional value
to both your loose feed and ground bait, especially in ‘method’ style mixes.
Gulp Sardine Oil 500ml (Summer/Autumn)
Gulp Salmon Oil 500ml (Summer/Autumn)
Gulp Liver Oil 500ml (All Seasons)
Gulp Fish Feed Oil 500ml (All Seasons)

naturally occurring Fatty Acids, the same as we use in our Berkley Gulp! Carp
Boilies. This Gulp! Oil does not thicken in cold temperatures, and, as such, it

additive to your base mix, or as an extra boost to your pellets or spod mix, and
to further customise your baiting strategy.
