Not me. I much prefer the Zoom Trick Worm.

I am not a huge fan of the Senko.  I don't hate it, I just enjoy fishing other soft plastics more.  I will throw it on occasion, especially when the fish are shallow.

I think they are so popular on this board because they are a great bait for a beginner and we have a TON of beginners here at any given time.  I wish I knew about the Senko when I first started.  I used to fish a few places that was prime Senko water.

They flat catch fish but its definitely not my favorite. In fact dead sticking a senko is probably my least favorite technique. In previous posts I have likened it to watching paint dry. However they have their time and place for sure. I always have senko's with me.

While I fish senkos, they are not my "favorite" bait.  Although there are some days when they are.

The thing about senkos is they are a good universal bait.  While presentation is important, there seems to be no wrong way to fish them. 

They are probably the best bet for a novice to catch fish.

I enjoy fishing with soft plastics, period. That includes Senco's (or knock offs) flukes, creatures ect.I almost always have a Senco tied on one off the 5 or 6 poles in the boat. I have given countless hooks and Senco's to kids that were fishing at the boat launch and not catching diddly until they were shown the Senco's power. Same with adults,have taken lots of people fishing that have only used live bait and shown them how to catch fish on plastics. Not just Sencos but plastics in general. They are great as someone said, for newbies, but I suspect more people use them than they care to admit. Just my thoughts.

I think you'll find that most people here use something else than the actual senko.

Not my favorite bait or my best producer, but they have days when they work very well just like every other bait I have ever used. I try just about every soft bait I can find I think I am addicted to them.

[pudmunk]

Being a noob...  Yes I do
Do I love them? no
Do they produce for me? Yep

My buddy HARDLY tosses one and says his tourny partner calls it "*** fishing"
Probably due to what someone else said, it's kinda boring and like watching paint dry.

I'm starting to get into cranks and spinners now, but always have a Craw ore Senko tied up

Yamamoto for muah

[pudmunk]

BTW Yamamoto products are on sale at dicks sporting goods till Sat night for 4.99 per pack

good buy seeing they are a bit pricey at 6.49 reg

just a FYI bros

The GYCB Senko revolutionized bass fishing for many people,
including me! The introduction of the Senko was magical, much
like the original Lucky 13, Jitterbug, Rat-L-Trap, Creme Worm,
Gitzit and Floating Rapala.

I suspect the Senko has contributed to more tournament wins
than any other bait over the past fifteen years. This would be
especially true at the amateur level.

[SirSnookalot]

I don't care for that style of fishing but on the rare occasion that I use them success is almost guaranteed, sizable fish as well.

[Stasher1]

They're quite possibly my least favorite soft plastic, and I haven't thrown one in well over a year.

[rubba bubba]

I love fishing them a long with any other weightless plastic, but I prefer plastic fishing to crank/spinnerbait fishing personally.

[South FLA]

Senko, Stick-O, Wave, Zero, etc.

Are all AWESOME soft plastic lures and can be worked and rigged just about anyway.  If you don't have them you are missing out!  Caught my biggest bass on one and will continue to use them for producing numbers or quality.  My go to lure is the one that is producing, so its not always the case, but to answer your question, I am a Senko or Senko imitator fan!!
