I have been keeping it wrapped in the containers in the garage but it's starting to get below freezing. Leave it there or bring it in basement? I've never had leftover GULP before. Probably three or four packs.

Don't know for sure Miss Kandy , but I don't think they should freeze and then be usable ? Merry Christmas Young Lady 🎄♥️

I leave mine in my garage over the winter, but it rarely gets below 35* in my garage. It is 24’x32’ but has one heat and air register in the wall between house and garage.

Thanks, I put it in the basement.

Same place mine is Kandy along with all fishing gear. Except the yak of course.

All my Gulp goes into a jar with the package liquid when I open the package. I've had the same jar for several years and keep it in the garage. Just make sure the jar seals well, the fluid leaks like crazy.

I bought an airtight, leakproof container as the lid on the original gulp jar started leaking. Will put some in there but somewhere said not to mix the colors. ??? I thought I saw Danger had all his in the same jar.
I just leave my plastic bag packed 2" sand worms and 4" mullet in the boat. It got down to 10 degrees, so I assume they froze. I bring the gulp in if in a plastic jar as I expect the liquid will freeze and crack the jar. I found no difference regarding the lures in the spring.
I also save empty gulp jars and fill them with white 2 inch curly tail grubs and 2" gulp looking rubber minnows. I then cover them with the gulp refill liquid bottle and use them in the spring. They are not quite as good as the original gulp baits (I believe they lose their scent in a fairly short time), but still effective enough to fill a limit on flatfish if the fishing is reasonable. They are a lot cheaper than gulp originals if one buys the baits in bulk on the internet. If things are slow, I put a gulp sandworm on one hook and the curly tail or minnow on the other. Just an FYI, Gulp baits that have been opened are just as good several years later if kept in the liquid.
I have not noticed issues with freezing, just drying out.

I bought a Square clear plastic jar with about a 4 inch round screw on lid. I keep all of my gulp that. Except unopened packages. All the juice from the package goes in the jar with all of the assorted baits. Grubs, swimming mullet mostly and some eels and shrimp all in different sizes and colors. I also buy the recharge bottles of gulp juice to add to the jar periodically. In the winter I store it in my basement with my fishing gear and some boat items. I have left the jar in the baitwell in the boat and I’m not sure if it’s ever been frozen but it’s certainly been cold enough to freeze. The juice turns a brown color after awhile, but it still works great. Flounder, sea robins, bluefish, and blowfish all really seem to love it.

Exactly the same thing I do except I don't buy the renew stuff. I just collect the juice from the packs.
Thanks guys! Appreciate the input.

Same like fly tier
I dump all my gulp in a plastic container from the dollar tree and dig thru the gulp for the one I want.
I keep it in my garage and it seems good so far. It never gets below freezing but it does get cold.
