I don’t want this to sound offensive, but I wouldn’t consider Senko fishing to be any less advanced than other techniques. If they want a Senko, then give them what they want and enjoy the ride!
I do understand and appreciate the desire to branch out and learn other techniques, but I wouldn’t consider one any more sophisticated or advanced than the other. The complete angler is able to discern what they want and how they want it. Then they simply deliver it.
