Berkley Gulp! Ghost Shrimp Soft Bait – Chartreuse Belly, 3in | Inshore

Inshore lure with eye-catching color and lifelike motion

The Berkley Gulp! Ghost Shrimp Soft Bait in Chartreuse Belly brings a bright, high-contrast look to a compact 3-inch profile. The soft, flexible plastic flexes with each retrieve, creating subtle flashes and a natural kick that mimics a fleeing crustacean. When you pair this with the Chartreuse Belly, you gain a visible silhouette that stands out in stained or low-light water, helping your presentation cut through the surrounding color and glare.

Designed for inshore use, this lure sits in the sweet spot for dock pilings, marsh edges, and shallow grass flats. Its size is small enough to tempt wary predators, yet noticeable enough to attract attention when cast into likely ambush zones. The combination of shape, color, and a scent-infused bite-taker makes it a versatile option for a range of seasonal conditions.
