I peg a small weight at times....1/8th or 1/16.  It darts around when you pop it.  FYI, I go to a straight shank hook whenever I peg any type of sinker.  

^^This^^ ... For pitching to cover as a specific technique - then moving up to 3/8th oz. is the deal .

    Hmmm!

     

    I don't see the addition of a weight as "killing" the Senko's action, I see it as adding to the action.

     

    I throw a Classic Texas Rig, 3/16-1/4 oz bullet weight unpegged.

     

    In deep water (15'+) I want that Senko chasing that bullet weight to the bottom. The weight hits bottom, the Senko pauses, you move the weight the Senko darts forward.

     

    Classic Reaction Strike ?
