If you’ve ever dealt with gulp, you know the struggle. That sticky, gooey mess that somehow manages to escape every container you put it in, leaving your tackle box, boat, and car looking like a disaster zone. It’s one of those fishing frustrations that we’ve all just accepted as part of the game, until now.
Twenty years ago, Baitmule’s founder Ryan Sherwood was just like the rest of us, dealing with the same messy aftermath every time he used gulp. As someone who lived for fluke fishing season, he’d gotten used to the ritual of rigging up, selecting the perfect bait, and choosing between bucktails, jigheads, or teaser hooks. But no matter how great the fishing was, he’d always come home to the same problem: gulp residue covering everything.
The Solution That Actually Works

Ryan’s frustration led him to discover a solution that the fishing world desperately needed. Baitmule is a container that’s actually, truly leakproof. Using medical-grade design, these containers don’t just claim to be leakproof; they deliver on that promise in ways that every angler who’s tried them can appreciate.
The containers are virtually unbreakable, which means they’ll hold up through whatever your fishing adventures throw at them. Whether you’re bouncing around in rough seas, hiking to a remote fishing spot, or just dealing with the general chaos of getting your gear ready, Baitmule containers are built to last.
More Than Just Gulp Storage

Here’s what makes Baitmule particularly smart: while they solved the gulp problem, they created something much more versatile. These containers protect anything you don’t want getting in or out, making them perfect for all your waterproof storage needs this summer.
Think about it: your phone, wallet, keys, electronics, snacks, first aid supplies, or anything else you need to keep dry and secure. Whether you’re on the boat, at the beach, kayaking, or just dealing with unexpected weather, having truly waterproof storage changes everything.

When tackle shops and serious anglers are this enthusiastic about a product, it’s worth paying attention to.
Perfect Timing for Summer

With summer fishing season in full swing, now is the perfect time to upgrade your storage game. Whether you’re targeting fluke, stripers, or whatever else is biting, having containers that actually work eliminates one of those annoying variables that can mess up an otherwise perfect day on the water.
Beyond fishing, summer activities around LBI often involve water, sand, and situations where you need to keep things dry and secure. Beach days, boat trips, kayaking adventures, or even just dealing with sudden afternoon thunderstorms, waterproof storage that you can actually trust makes all the difference.
