I'm thinking about getting some of these other than sankos, but are they better or worse, or just the same?

Haven't used them but 2 reviews on bass pro said they were as good as a senko but last longer.          

I have used these. They stay on a hook better and do not get torn up as bad. I caught up to 6 Bass on one bait. As far as durablility they are superior to Senkos IMHO.

im not sure if that bait is the one where the hard portion is in the middle or the nose.

i know mann's has one "senko" out where the hard portion is in the middle, making it only possible to utilize the "hard nose technolgy" if you wacky rig the bait.

the nose of the bait in your link looks to be slightly larger and a different texture/color, so these worms are probably not the ones made for wacky rigging.

I think it depends on how you fish them. Wacky rigged they did not have a good jiggly action like a Senko. Texas rigged I think they would do fine though. I wacky rig so I did not like them. Also be careful as the dye on these will bleed out and darken or stain other lures you may mix them with. I am a fan of the Yum dingers if I do not use the Senko.

If you're not going to fish the GYCB Senko, try the soft plastics sold by our BassResource.com sponsors:

I'm partial to Tiki-Sticks. next would be Senkos.

Still want to try some ***. Have a bag of these but haven't tried them. They feel slightly harder than above listed.
