How to use a Swimming Senko.
I use their #222 color much of the time as you can see in the pics. # 213 and #196 are two favorites also. I use both a Medium Kistler 7' LTA Helium(weightless) and a Medium Heavy MB Jabberwock(T-rigged with a weight) rod for them. Dan

FINALLY !!! Ohio State vs. Florida
I am so proud of the Florida Gators. I was born-n-raised in Miami, Florida many moons ago and am a sixth-generation Floridian. We moved to GA in 1972 but I still have the sand between my toes Florida had superior athletes, superior coaching, superior execution, and superior attitude last night. What a game! 8-) FWIW, I didn't matriculate at any college :-[. Dan

How to use a Swimming Senko.
The SS seems to be made of a different soft plastic formula than that used with the original Senko. I havn't gotten anyone over on Inside Line to confirm that but the SS seems to be made of a tougher soft plastic so the screw-in weights I use(no longer made ) don't damage the SSs that easily. I prefer not to peg a weight but you surely can. They are totally different and yet, somewhat similar :-?... The weighted SSs needs to be moved rather rapidly to make the tail 'work' As to whether the SS works better, I haven't thrown an original Senko since I bought the SS but I'm running out of them soon so I'll revert back to the originals. No "Bill Dance pond" ;D. Those Bass were caught at my boss's pond(s). nb: Thank you for the kind words. Dan

Swimming Senkos, a good buy?
Some help here. No, it's not at its best when just letting it fall on a weightless rig. Make it move. Make the tail work. Dan

How to use a Swimming Senko.
You can catch Bass rigging it weightless but I agree that it works better with a weight heavy enough to pull it down fast enough to make the tail 'work'. 6 lber: 5/16 oz, rattling, Gambler screw-in weight, and a 4/0 Sugoi hook: 3 lber, same T-rig as above: 1 lber, weightless SS with a 4/0 Sugoi: 3 lber, same rig as above: Dan

what is a certified scale
I use this scale and have for the last 2 years or so. It can be IGFA certified but I haven't done that. It is a quality scale and it is available at Cabelas. Dan

NEW ROD!!
My 7', Kistler LTA Heliums have a long handle too but I like it. It lies along the bottom of my forearm and makes for a great 'connection' to my casting/playing arm plus, I like the room for two hands when casting. I think you'll get use to it . Dan

Internet explorer problem
I got my IE7 ditrectly from Microsoft so I haven't had the problems that others have had when using yahoo, etc. for a source. Having said that, I too get the same pop-up Avid and I just click on it. This is the only site/forum that that anomaly occurs on. :-? Dan
