I like strike king Shim-e-sticks. They have the closest fall weight and shimmy compared to the original I've seen.

The problem for me is that I can't pick just one brand. I need some slow falling stick baits (Wave Worms). Then I need my fast falling ones (GYCB). Then maybe even one in between. (?)

Honestly unless someone revolutionizes the senko, I could just fish with those two brands and be completely satisfied.

I use Ocho's and Zero's quite a bit, but my highest rate of catch is still on Senko originals.

I like Yum Dingers.

The Kinami Flash and the GYCB are the same bait, the only differences between both are:

1.- the color chart

2.- the Flash has the Kinami wave molded on the eggsack.

So when you purchase a bag of Kinami Flash you are actually purchasing a bag of GYCB Senkos

I like Dingers for everyday use.

Chompers make a good stick bait.  Mann's makes a good stick bait.  Bass Pro makes a decent stick bait.   Berkley sink worm works good.  Zoom magnum trick worm works good.  I have some Culprit and  some Northland Slurpies stick baits.  And I'm sure that there are some brands that I've forgotten.  I have most of the ones previously mentioned as well.

I tend to buy all of them.  When it is time to choose one, I open up the soft plastic stick bait bag (Senko's, being reserved for wacky duty only have their own bag) and which ever one screams the loudest "PUT ME IN!!" gets the nod.  I realize that it isn't the most scientific system in town, but it works about as well as any other system.

I like yum dingers most of the time. When I want a faster fall I go with a yamamoto. Most of my stick bait fishing is done in the spring, and the fish usually like the slower fall of the dingers.

I use them all, but for the money the BPS one works just as well and is much cheaper and is often on sale.  ;)

It looks like the Senko has more wiggle to me...

I also use many including Senkos, but In My Opinion the BPS Stickos are a very good alternative. There has been much discussion of "better" and "best" in the past. Too far down that road will get this thread locked...

this is not true. I have used both extensively and the senkos are much softer and have much more wiggling action as they fall. I'm not saying they are made by two completely different companies, but the material they are made up of is definitely different.

From what I've used I would say dingers, but nothing works quite as well as the original senko.

Dingers for me

I use Ocho's and Zero's quite a bit, but my highest rate of catch is still on Senko originals.

Maybe I got a couple bad bags of Zero's, but they had ZERO shimmy on the fall.  Literally fell like a stick.  :'(

I like the Berkley Heavy weight fat sinking worm and the YUM Dingers.

Later, ;)

Dude, it has been discussed ad nauseum and confirmed by GYCB pro staffers and by GYCB itself, GYCB Senko and Kinami Flash is the same bait.

They are the same. This is a fact, not an opinion.

You're wrong.
