I went to my local pond and used my 4" watermelon with black flake. I fished it Texas rigged and caught the 2 biggest fish out of there I have caught. They werent big ones but its the biggest out of there so far. The only negative thing I have to say about them is that it seems like the durability is not what I hoped it would be.

that i do agree they do tear easily but for the most part i love em and will still buy them. i want to try the swim senko too. has anyone tried it?

you want them to last get yourself some o-rings and an o-ring tool and fish them wacky.

Congrats, you are now hooked.  GYM Senko's rarely last me more than 2 fish.  After I get a good collection of torn up baits I bust out the Mend-It.

       X2 !

    Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Also, use a circle hook if the bass you catch are swallowing the hook.

Try a trick stick

Two little words for you baby ***

We keep this as a sticky in the top half of page 1 in this section:

Lots of fish to be had on the almighty trick stick. This thing will be finding new people 20 yrs from now, amazing.

Be sure to read up on the link RW provided above, everything you could ever conceive regarding these baits, is in there.

and DEFINITELY check out the ***.  Lots of $ to be saved

I will definitely be purchasing from ***.

I caught half a dozen fish on the same trick stick this weekend. Black/Blue Laminate works GREAT when it's overcast.

So when you wacky rig a Senko how do you retrieve it? Any action needed to be made with the rod?

You mean Senkos and Trick Sticks work?    

Great looking stuff at *! I've heard alot of folks raving about the Black Blue Laminate and was curious as to if there is some other hot colors in the 5" list there. Thanks!

Shimmer Shad is the hottest color right now. (like it was made for you, lol) For the most part, anything with watermelon or green or pumpkin (or any combination) are the hottest colors. Also the new Tilapia color is coming on strong. Hope that helps. Just know that for every person that hates one color, another wouldn't leave home without it. (including merthiolate)

Thanks for the information, I'm running out of stick worms at the moment so I'll be putting my order through soon. I'll definately keep the Shimmer Shad in mind!

Senko's have always been very good to me and I agree with everyone else here... ***..  ;D

I had to find out what all the hype was about....I went out and bought some senkos two days ago and tried them out last night. I caught a couple on them but I think I still need some time to get used to fishing with a slack line. Awesome bait though!! I'm looking at the *** website right now and these trick worms look great.....ESPECIALLY THE PRICE! Thanks for the info guys!

Man, I haven't caught anything on senkos.  i have gone through 3/4 of a bag and nada.  I think the fish are talking.

These things seek to amaze me! By the way dont by senkos buy some trick sticks from ***. Senkos dont last me more than 2 fish!
