Clear Senkos!!

This new saltless formula will allow fairly clear baits that show glitter well. Same size, weight, sink rate, and softness as a real one. Durability test are underway.

 

Sorry but I do not sell them.

 

Thanks to Baitjunkys and Wally for initial recon

JMO, wouldn't a blue line thru the middle work?

It looks as if a small amount of glitter would do well. Would make a great red/ green flake mixture.

I'm showing this to show that it it now possible to get a fairly clear bait that sinks and is as soft as a real Senko. Something that was impossible for anyone or any company to do before.

 

I would not neccesarily fish it clear like that, although as you said I have been making them with different color glitter that really shine and sparkle great.

Those will be sweet, I am sure....nice!

Why are there so many flukes made that are clear with different colors of sparkle, but no senkos?  Is it the sink rate that you mentioned, or another reason?

How about a solid line that shines? Like a piece of foil or whatever the bait companies use?

Thats pretty cool though!

If you need anyone to test these bait out, pm me, I love the look of them

I have clear /black flake senko and clear BPS stik-o that are like the fluke but dont think as clear as Numbs.

Fished them this morning for a few hours before it got too hot. Caught 7 small bass skipping under docks and branches.

 

Wacky rigged with single o-ring. Bait sank and shimmied just like a real senko. Only used one bait and still looks like new.

 

I dont fish them Texas so not sure how they would last that way.

Regular senkos and sticks use salt to add weight so the bait sinks. That tends to cloud the plastic.

 

Core shots (center diferent color can not be done easily with multi cavity molds.

 

Not many try foil inside. I never tried it.

I have heard over the years, senkos have silica in them as well, a blood/ blue vien would be so cool, but yea, tough to do, no doubt!

Good Work, always interesting hearing from bait makers ....
