     Are yamamoto senkos any good rigged dropshot, just got my first pack and don't know how to use them.

They will work, but, i'd be inclined to use more of a finnese worm of fluke type plastic.

I fish senkos mainly wacky-rigged and sometimes Texas rigged, always weightless. Definitely my favorite soft plastic.

Texas riggged and wacky rigged. Either one. No weight if you have the patience. I won club tourney Saturday on a weightless Senko. Throw it next to a target and let fall. When it hits bottom, very carefully pull on the line — if anything feels funny or weird set the hook. Raely do I feel a "bite" but they are just there.

I can slay em' on a weightless Texas rig green pumpkin w/ red flake!!!

For dropshotting I suggest you rig them wacky style, they have a much better action than conventional nose hooked.

Nope, don't work, waste of time..... :whistle:

you can usually see the bite on the line if you watch it. At least thats how i tell when i slack line it

This is what I'd suggest, as well. I primarily fish them wacky, and they're killer.

I would go with a trick worm or finesse worm. Yamoto products way over priced for what you get.

fishing them wacky style can work wonders...

 

also, yeah you can drop-shot them too, wacky like people have suggested but I also like to use a EWG worm hook texas rigged drop shot. (saw JVD on Zona's show drop shot like this but he was using a flipping hook, gonna try that out too when the ice melts! he wasn't using a senko tho btw)

Speaking of GYBC, Has anyone tried to buy from their website? I have 4 items that I really like from GYBC that I used to buy from Cabela's or BPS, They no loner carry these items. So, I went to the GYBC website and tried to order them. Got through the size, color, add to cart, etc and then tried to order and pay for them and that was it, No way could figure out how to finish the transaction. Any Ideas?
